Employment Opportunity: Early Grades Enrichment Teacher.
Part-Time. Job description below-please inquire if interested!

Nora Comeau
they/them
Mother, Teacher, Director & Co-Founder
Hi! I come from a family of pioneers in education, art, and organic farming.
​
My favorite words are wild, soul, joy, and love. I bring my background as a teacher (10+ years), a signed language interpreter (11 years), and a parent (7+ years).
​
For me, teaching and learning are reciprocal. I observe the direct experience of the student, and I am guided by holistic development.
Informed by children, nature, and Waldorf education, I keep an open mind to any approach that can be integrated beneficially.
When not ‘at school’, you might find me: playing ball with my partner and my son, painting, or getting dirty in my garden!
​
My talents include storytelling, knitting, and devising curriculum. I look forward to playing and learning together.
Catherine Liggett
she/her
Mother, Co-Founder, Parent Volunteer, Webmaster
As a writer, former university teacher, and mother of two, I'm deeply passionate about bringing up the next generation of world-changers.
​
With a background in mindfulness education and social-emotional learning, my favorite subjects to teach and model are kindness and empathy. (In this photo, I'm showing the children how to discover small creatures and treat them kindly.)
​
My talents include dancing, general goofiness, gardening, and tide pool exploration.



Hannah Lemberg
she/her
Mother, Teacher, Co-Founder
I have worked in education much of my life, including as an elementary and high school humanities, Spanish, and theater teacher, mostly at Waldorf schools. I love to work collaboratively with parents, students, and other teachers. I believe that children deserve an education that meets them as individuals and feeds their innate connection to the beauty of the world.
I find joy and comfort in reading, travel, nature, tea, yoga, cooking, quiz games, folk music and dance, theater, and sharing experiences with children, especially my six-year-old daughter, Calla.
My talents include reading aloud, hosting tea parties, and singing Spanish children’s songs.
