About Janet

Experience: 20 yrs

Working with families brings me immense joy. With 20 years of experience, I offer extensive training and management skills to support your child, and your parenting journey. My background includes degrees in social and behavioral sciences, and child development with specialized training in Waldorf and Curative Education, RIE, Special Ed and neuroscience-based discipline. I am patient, creative, and approachable. I am agrarian in nature with strong seasonal rhythms and reverence. Child-directed play is paramount to creating secure attachments, I enjoy encouraging independent explorations, play groups and scaffolded fasts such as art and food preparation. I have been director of child development programs professionally for years and am looking for a small group of children to support part-time while I finish an advanced degree.

Janet has been a part of our family ever since my son was two and we needed childcare. She has cared for both of our sons (one starting at 2 years old, one starting in infancy) and she goes about her work with absolute love and attention. Not only to our kids but also taking into account and contributing to my wellbeing as a post-partum mom as well. We absolutely trust her with our kids’ safety and emotional development. Janet is a treasure and we have been so lucky to have her in our lives.
