“Through others we become ourselves.”
Lev Vygotsky
In-person/virtual
Part of my passion as an educator lies in dialoguing and engaging with other educators about our work. In-line with a social constructivist view of learning, I believe this is the key to shifting the paradigm in early education that will bring meaningful change to our communities. Educators bring their passion every day to the hearts and minds of children and each other, and the process of dialoguing about this work can feel very validating.
Some of my favourite topics:
- Learning from the pedagogical approaches and research from Reggio Emilia
- Nature as an attachment figure and outdoor learning
- Understanding How Does Learning happen?
- Mindfulness for children and educators
- Narrative therapy techniques in the classroom
- Universal design

I’m an early childhood professional, dreamer, fur-baby mama, creative and free spirit. I operate Cosmos Early Learning , based in the Ottawa Valley near Lanark, Ontario. In addition to my passionate work with children and families, I love yoga, paddle boarding, music, gardening and spending time with my loved ones.
Fun fact: Block printing, resist techniques, silk-screening are some of the creative outlets I enjoy most in my free time.
