Messy sensory play? Creative and individualized art experiences? Getting a little dirty outside while jumping puddles in our rain boots? Hello beautiful families- my name is Maria, and I am an experienced Early Childhood Educator and play based advocate. I enjoy the beauty of celebrating each child's individual development. Meeting them where they are and embracing their strengths, while challenging them to thrive. I have my Bachelor's in Speech and Language and am a fluent American Sign Language user. A skill that has opened up so many milestones for young children of all abilities. I have two boys of my own, and family is my heart! I enjoy being creative, tasting new foods, and spending time on our homestead with our 3 Juliana mini pigs!
