About Gabriella

I believe children thrive when given real food, sunshine, and lots of love. Some would say I'm a professional crafter. Arts and crafts, that is. I love encouraging children to explore the arts, whatever that may look like for them. For the past four years I've lived in Costa Rica. There, I was fully immersed in the culture and surrounded by a strong community of believers. From my experience there, I can introduce basic Spanish in a natural and immersive way. The Lord has since led me back home to Texarkana, where I am from. The kitchen is my happy place. Nutrition is very important to me. I love to bake and make most things from scratch. Although, I am not opposed to takeout and pizza on occasion. It's all about balance and knowing what makes your body feel its best. I love to be outside and teach little ones about the world around them. I'm also experienced in caring for animals, gardens, plants, and sourdough starters. (kidding. But, I can totally feed and maintain your starter.)
