About Michelle

Thank you for considering me for your family/home! Choosing me: you'll welcome a learner-led Educator, artist/designer, and current Substitute Playworker at a Forest School, with over 5 years of experience working with children of various ages & children with special needs. Having worked in diverse childcare settings- Preschool, Montessori, Daycare, High School, Park Districts, Therapeutic School, and Community Programs- & with taking my own time away from traditional structures, I'm deeply committed to supporting children in exuding their own intelligence & uniqueness, and fostering interdependence where children feel safe, seen, and empowered to explore themselves & the world. #play #creativity #connectiontonature = foundational. I work great with creative individuals who will thrive with encouragement to grow through their particular challenges.
