Dedicated Mentors Serving Vancouver Island

"Stephanie’s nature-based programs have opened my son’s eyes to so many subtle elements present in the natural world.  He has developed confidence in identifying native plants, building fires, carving and making shelters.  Her story telling has captured his imagination and enriched his access to myths that originate in the West Coast landscape.  She weaves parents into the journey seamlessly, by providing detailed weekly summaries of their child's activities. Having this knowledge has lead to wonderful parent/child conversations for us at home.  Stephanie is a gifted teacher with a unique ability to meet the child where they're at.  My son always looks forward to her sessions with joy and enthusiasm.  We are so grateful for her amazing offerings…"
