About Rachelle

I'd describe myself as being compassionate, curious, and calm. I started working with kids many years ago because I wanted to learn about how they develop and grow, so that I could learn how to be a good leader, teacher, and mother. I have experience working in infant day care centers, preschools, and public elementary schools. In my spare time, I like to go for walks in nature, play with my pets, and spend time with friends and family. One thing you should know about me is that I highly value empowering a child to express themselves and think through a problem to finding a solution. I listen and coach rather than pressure and force. My skills include listening, guiding, and being present. I foster curiosity and thinking. I am a mother of 2 children, ages 20 and 17.
