A little bit about me

Hello! I am a teacher, a farmer, a lover of the outdoors and animals and of course, kids! I have been teaching and caring for kiddos forever, including working in the classroom, outdoor schools, running my own camps on my farm, teaching art and science...
Some of my favorite activities to do with kids are making nature art, going for walks, reading books, and cooking.
I am cheerful and kind, and I love integrating teaching into play, and making kids feel safe, joyful, and excited to experience the wonders of life.
I am an organic/Regenerative farmer, and always enjoy preparing meals that are healthy. I truly adore cooking with kids, and teaching kids to eat healthy food!
I live on a 40 acre farm just east of Washougal, and would be happy to have kiddos at the farm if that was something families were interested in exploring.
