I want to support you.

I offer guidance for taking learning outdoors, addressing all the logistics. I will help you gain a deeper understanding of how our interactions in nature help each of us in so many ways, including supporting the development of social, emotional, and academic skills for children and youth. I will assist you in adapting or creating curriculum.

Social-Emotional Growth.

When undesired behaviors present, it means there is an unmet need. As parents, caregivers, and educators, we get to model and nurture the social-emotional skills necessary to clearly communicate, manage, and meet those needs. Facilitating meaningful time connecting in nature will support the development of these essential life skills . Let’s talk about how.

There’s no such thing as a ‘bad kid’

Learning with nature supports social-emotional growth and development.

Curriculum Development.

There are many approaches to nature-based learning. Maybe you need support in adapting indoor curriculum to move outdoors, while ensuring standards are met, or you want new curriculum specific to the outdoor area you will explore with your students. Whether you plan to engage in the occasional visit to a nearby natural area or take learning outdoors routinely, you will be supported in meeting your program or class goals.
