Vanderwall Montessori Academy

I am so excited to share that after nearly two decades as a teacher I will be retiring at the end of June. Working with these amazing kids has been the privilege of a lifetime and without a doubt has made me the person I am today. So grateful for every family that shared their babies with me!

I’ll be moving to central Illinois in July to live on the dropzone where I skydive, and have accepted a job sewing and working on parachutes and skydiving accessories nearby! Absolutely thrilled to take on these new challenges and see a little more of this beautiful world!

We’re having a get together Sunday June 25th to celebrate all the children who have made my life so beautiful! If you’re interested in attending send a message and I’ll send over the details.

Thank you so much for sharing your families with me!

These kids fill my days with messes and love, watching them grow into their selves is such an honor! Truly blessed with this amazing group!

It’s been a busy but quiet year in our little bubble, when times are rough these kids remind us all to celebrate every moment we can!

Wishing everyone a Happy Thanksgiving! So thankful for all the amazing families who have enriched my life, I love you all! ❤️❤️❤️

A special thank you to all the people who are staying home with a good book this year! You’re missing your loved ones to help keep us all safe, your care for others warms my heart.

The summer has flown by!

So happy to be playing with our friends again!

I am so happy to announce that VMA has reopened! With new sanitation protocols in place of course. There is one spot available! Contact us today to set up a tour.

Thank you to all of you amazing Mothers! It has been my privilege to get to know your beautiful children ❤️❤️❤️

We’re closed at the moment to protect our students health during this global pandemic, but we’re missing all of our friends so much I thought I’d share some pictures! Stay safe
