About Lauren

Hello! My name is Lauren. I am a lover of nature and art! I had my own jewelry business for 3 years and currently have my own photography business. I also love to play with clay, collaging, sewing and I always seem to be exploring something new! I enjoy getting outside whenever possible, whether thats camping, hiking, road tripping to further beautiful places, or just sitting in my backyard. A little about myself as a caregiver: I worked full time as a nanny for 1 kiddo from May 2021-August 2023. Prior to nannying, I worked with kids ranging from age 5-14 in a clinical setting for 2. 5 years. I enjoy both facilitated and child-led play and learning in nature immersive and outdoor activities, arts and crafts, games, reading stories. I emphasize autonomy and independence while holding firm boundaries and helping to facilitate natural learning opportunities. I value gentle communication, conversation around emotions and problem solving to guide kids through difficult moments.
