A Nature inspired, child-led education to spark a lifetime of courage and curiosity. Enrollment open now!
My specialty is creating high‑quality early childhood learning environments where children feel inspired, supported, and deeply connected to their natural curiosity. As a former National Family Childcare Provider of the Year, I bring decades of experience, ongoing higher education, and a commitment to best practices in early childhood education. I design spaces that encourage nature exploration, child‑led discovery, and meaningful relationships. My approach supports the whole child socially, emotionally, academically, and physically while also honoring the joy and wonder that make early learning so powerful. Families consistently share that their children feel at home here, and many graduates return to visit or volunteer as they grow older. These lasting connections reflect the care, trust, and community that truly define my work.
Montessori for today! Treehouse Montessori School sustains a community-centric educational environment that creates a voice for all children and families. We follow the individual needs of the child, while empowering the child and community to express and advocate for those needs. Together as a community, we will model, support, and embrace diversity and equity while holding true to Dr. Maria Montessori's principles.

Kidtopia incorporates a unique blend of Reggio, Waldorf and Montessori principles. We view children as competent, curious, and full of potential. The children take the lead in this program, as they propose ideas, make choices, develop and test hypotheses. The teacher closely observes and listens, asks leading questions, and helps to further that exploration. Our approach is cooperative and conversational. This is a half day program, for children between 3 and 6 years of age.
