What Parents Say
What truly sets her apart is her kind and gentle demeanor. My son warmed up to her immediately, making this experience even more enjoyable for both of us. Working with Maggie has been nothing short of amazing, and I feel incredibly fortunate to have her support on this journey.
The sensory rich experience with built in language, fine motor, and gross motor activities was wonderful for him and provided many meaningful learning opportunities.
Maggie created a safe and engaging atmosphere for all the little ones to explore and enjoy. Our child was calm and curious in the woods and we always left feeling more at ease and connected as a family.
