Katie grew up in Menlo Park and is the youngest of 4 children. She has a son and daughter, both in their twenties, whom she is very close to. She worked in childcare for over 8 years, in a private preschool, and for the City of Menlo Park. She has always been passionate about helping in her childrens schools, from parent co-op years through to lower school. Art has always been her favorite way to connect with children. Katie is wildly creative and can-do and we could not be more excited to have her join us this fall 2024 as our co-lead for teas providing monthly crafts and storytelling.

 

Favorite Tradition: 

Her favorite family tradition is one her father continued from his childhood on the east coast of Canada. Every New Year’s morning was extra magical as the family met at the Christmas tree where one small but meaningful gift from a magical fairy ‘Nancy New Year’ would be waiting under the tree.
