About Mata

a nurturing, attentive, and dedicated caregiver. I am committed to fostering your child's social-emotional and educational growth, I am a trained and certified Montessori teacher with 15 years classroom experience, 5 years directing a Montessori school, and many years working one-on-one with children in their homes. Children love me because I love them. Your child will always receive 100% of my attention. I utilize play to assist in their learning. I approach each child as an individual and cater my teaching to their needs and interests. Whether it's through play, creative arts, or exploring the world around us, we have fun! We read, play music, draw, talk, explore nature, cook - spontaneously engaging in activities they love. I typically work with children, from about 1 year to early elementary. My current family is moving into preschool, so I am available. I have positive relationships with all my past families.
