Access Sarah’s skill set and expertise.

Sarah helps inspire children and families alike to connect with learning in a joyful, purposeful way. She developed her skill set as an educator in a highly esteemed Manhattan preschool, where she led a mixed-age classroom of 2 to 6 year-olds. She shines in guiding families through the preschool and kindergarten years, the focus of her consulting practice.

Sarah has a refined understanding of how to set a child up for success in early learning - from the foundations of literacy, numeracy, and science, to school applications and preparedness.

More importantly, she grasps what children need practically and holistically - including positive communication, sensible and consistent limits, and developmentally beneficial experiences at home.

Sarah now partners with parents to help them better understand and support their children, and to function with greater clarity and fulfillment. She brings her years of experience in early childhood development, the highest standards of Montessori training, and a characteristic spirit of warmth and compassion to her work with families.
