About Mali

Hi! Thanks for taking the time to check out my profile. Through my experiences and passion for early childhood, it is my hope that what I have to offer aligns with the needs and values of your family. I am a lover of wonder, the natural world, movement and creativity. I spend my time off playing (yoga, climbing, exploring outdoors). When I'm inside, I'm busy cooking and satisfying the hobby artist within. I am a graduate of Shippensburg University with an undergraduate degree in Elementary Education. I am a certified K-6th educator. My studies also included art education. After moving to New Hampshire, I began and eventually received a Nature Based Education in Early Childhood certificate from Antioch University. After moving from Pennsylvania to New Hampshire, I've embarked on a journey through the educational field, becoming a long-term substitute teacher, to having an outdoor preschool classroom, to now working as a nature connection mentor with Vermont Wilderness School.
