Artist Shelley Sophia

Supporting Conscious Evolution with Heart Centered Childcare,
I have been working with children and supporting moms and families for 20 + years.

I am continually inspired to nurture the heart and soul of each family I work with

and have a deep respect for each individual child's creative nature and intellectual development.

Spending time outside is important.

I like to encourage and initiate projects and playtime that is inspired from the natural world.

Some examples of nature inspired art projects are: 

• Making flower mandala's
• crafting fairy dolls from plants and herbs and flowers
• garden creation and tending
• fort building
• making paint from natural materials
• basket weaving
• rock painting
• making head wreaths and flower Lei's
• making instruments and other imaginative things from the natural supplies found in nature

I find that all kinds of important life skills are learned when we see nature as a fun resource for creating and learning from. This is one of my passions and I love sharing the teachings of RESPECT and CO-CREATION with NATURE to children, offering them a foundation of personal resource and nature connection that will last a life time.

Time spent outdoors, can be highly creative and inspirational, making outside play a natural environment for creativity and artistic exploration, expression and co-creation.

I am going to be offering several outdoor crafting and nature art workshops this coming summer. So stay tuned!

In the meantime I am available for on call childcare and one one art lessons and outdoor play time.
