About Elena
Experience: 10 yrs
COVID-19 vaccinated
Hello! I am a playful and experienced Forest School Founder/Director/Teacher. I have hosted a nature based program in the East Bay, for the past 6 years. I have been in the field of Environmental Education for the past 10 years. I love to share the joy of nature with children, to empower them in healthy exploration of the natural world. I am also deeply passionate about supporting children in their social/emotional growth. I provide them with tools for communicating their needs and working through conflicts. Please let me know if you would like to have a conversation to see if this might be a good fit for your family. Warmly, Elena

Elena is a jewel. I have known her for 2 years and have gotten to know her quite well in that time. She has spent plenty of time with my son and daughter and I trust her completely. My children love Elena dearly and miss their forest adventures together as they spent lots of time in nature. She is very knowledgeable about child development and intuitively understands how to peacefully care for others. Her melodic singing voice, creative storytelling and attention to thoughtful details makes the time in her care truly magical. She is patient, caring, trustworthy and in tune with the socio-emotional needs of my children and myself. During our time together, she has always remained friendly, consistent, transparent and reliable. Elena is definitely the best choice for any child care position. I highly recommend Elena for any child care position.
