Hello! I am so glad you've found Tinkergarten! I am a mother of three and I have a true passion for working with children. I do what I can to be a positive influence in their development and have been doing so, professionally, for almost 15 years. I am fueled by their curiosity, excitement, and interest with learning and playing. It fills me with joy to be able to facilitate that growth in children and families in a such positive way! AND in NATURE, WHICH I LOVE! I feel at home when I am outside, soaking in the world around me, and I hope that I can exude that same love to you and your family, to create not only life long needed skills, but life long childhood memories as well!
