Gardening and Games & Movement
I have been a resident of Mendocino County for 13 years and have been cultivating a cut flower farm for the past five years in Redwood Valley. I have a background in environmental education and a BS in marine biology, and have worked with children in various settings for most of my adult life. I find joy in sharing the wonders of nature with others, as well as our interconnectedness to the environment and to each other. I enjoy farming and gardening, spending time with my seven year old son, music, traveling, camping, and visiting the ocean.

Spanish & Aftercare
I grew up in Spain, and have always enjoyed sharing time with kids. I started working with children in summer camps at the age of 18, not knowing that it was going to be something that I would enjoy so much in the future. Then I decided to study a Bachelor's degree in Art History. During the last year of my degree I did an exchange to Mexico. Later I lived there for a few years, which allowed me the experience of learning a new culture. I also developed as an instructor of Yoga Kids and Aerial Silks.
I moved to California to learn English in an immersive way and have the experience of living again in a different country. The nature of Northern California has fascinated me.
I am so excited to be part of the Waldorf School of Mendocino County, and to be able to share with all the children my knowledge about the Spanish language and culture and also to be the Aftercare provider of the school.
