Meet The Team!
Ms. Amy
Founder & Director
Amy believes some of the best learning happens when children are free to wonder, explore, and follow their curiosity. With a Master's of Educational Studies from Johns Hopkins University and over six years as an outdoor educator, she has guided children through countless adventures in nature, drawing from experience in elementary classrooms, preschool programs, and camps. She brings both knowledge and heart to every outdoor learning experience.
As a homeschool mama to an energetic, nature-loving 7-year-old, Ms. Amy has spent countless days discovering the magic of the outdoors alongside her son. Whether searching for worms, listening for birdsong, or simply pausing to feel the wind through the trees, she loves helping children slow down, notice the world around them, and build a lifelong love for nature, one small discovery at a time.

Ms. Katie
Nature & Farm School
Katie has always had a heart for children and has worked with them in a variety of capacities almost her entire life! She brings so many rich experiences in her background with young children-from nannying, to caring for younger siblings, serving in children's enrichment programs and now being a mama to her own four-year old daughter! Ms. Katie is a natural with children and has a gentle way about her that puts them at ease and facilitates building connections.
Ms. Keely
Nature Play
Keely is a joyful, passionate teacher who believes learning should feel a little bit like an adventure—full of curiosity, creativity, and plenty of laughs along the way. She mixes her classroom experience with a love for the outdoors into engaging, hands‑on lessons that help kids discover their strengths and celebrate their “aha!” moments. When she's not teaching, you’ll almost always find her outside—exploring campgrounds, chasing her toddler son, or recharging in the fresh air with her family—which inspires her belief that wonder belongs in everyday learning.
