Hi, I'm Yuka!

I am a certified teacher of play-based Early Childhood Education and mother of two children. ​I let children use my face as a canvas and love messy process art and creative play!

 Early in my motherhood experience,  I decided to learn as much as possible about how little humans think, play and develop.  My education on the subject was so intriguing and compelling to me that I decided to become a preschool teacher.  Through exploring the property around our home with my own children, I discovered my true calling: to share this world of curiosity, awe, and holistic growth with other families. Innovating play-based philosophy to open the minds of children is the delight of my life. I believe that this is my purpose, and I take enormous joy in fulfilling this purpose.
