Hello there, and thanks so much for exploring what The Spirit Collective has to offer for families like yours.

 

As the program founder, I'm SO excited to bring this unique, leading-edge creation to childcare in Canada. As the program founder, I'm SO happy to bring this unique, leading-edge creation to childcare in Canada. I think of myself as a co-creator, continually learning and expanding. Drawing wisdom from my life experiences and partnering with experts gives TSC true distinction.

​

I developed this program, so more children experience the thrill of following their inspiration and connecting to the inner steel we develop by listening to ourselves. I aim to create an inspiring environment that invokes each child's mini "aha" moments.

 

As a working parent, I understand the challenge of balancing home and work life… All the rushing, trying to fit everything in, piecing together extracurriculars and juggling responsibilities with relationships. Sometimes just figuring out dinner majorly stresses us out!

​

I began thinking about what I wanted. I loved the idea of ease while wrapping up my workday and having a trusted adult pick up my kids to bring them to a dynamic afterschool program that ends a little later than the usual 5:30-6 pm time slot.

 

As I envisioned the program I wanted to send my child to, it lit a spark. With these desires in mind and a powerful pull to fill the gap, The Spirit Collective began to form. 

​

I designed TSC to provide other working parents with what we want: 

​

• more time to wrap up work and reset before the kids get home

• relief in knowing that the kids like how they spend the afternoon

• feeling more connected as a family and relaxed during the evening 

 

Drawing from my life's journey and 13 years of entrepreneurial experience, TSC gives parents a reliable resource for their kids. I bring tremendous passion as an advocate for young children to develop a relationship with themselves earlier in life.

 

I aim to empower a generation of energized young people who trust themselves, connect to their true power and enjoy creating meaningful lives!

​

The heart of our program reflects an inherent human desire for internal and external connection. We need others, like family and friends, while a positive relationship with ourselves nourishes and guides us. Let's bring more of that to your child's afterschool care!
