About

My name is Sarah, and I am a mother of two boys, born in 2014 and 2021. We’re an active family that loves the outdoors and doing arts and crafts. I have a Bachelor of Arts in Modern Languages and Literature, but spent many years working with children from 5 months to 16 years. I spent six years living and working in Germany, first as an au pair (nanny) for a lovely family with four children and then teaching English at a language school in Frankfurt. For five years I taught at a Montessori campus (elementary to secondary level). There I met my husband Aaron and we moved back to Canada together to start a new life on PEI!  I have incorporated many of the Montessori philosophies into the life of my own children, and many of the ideas are present in the centre for the children to explore, learn and develop at their own pace. I am crafty and creative, so there will be no shortage of fun, imaginative and educational activities each day.

I have recent CPR/First Aid training, I am Food Safety Certified and have over 10 years of experience working with children of all ages. I am also a certified Family Home Child Care Provider through the Province of PEI.

Blooming Minds Childcare is an in-home childcare centre that was licensed through the Province of PEI in April, 2023. We adhere to all safety and health standards as required by the Province and are inspected yearly.

Our home is a modern bungalow all on one floor. The hub of the house faces the south side and it’s bright and welcoming. We spend most of our time outdoors when we can, but there’s plenty of space and opportunity for play and practicing motor skills in our open kitchen/dining room and living space.

We have many gardens in our large yard. All variations of flowers, fruit and vegetables. We hope to teach your child about caring for a space of their own and look forward to seeing what grows!
