The relationship with the child is our curriculum.
Children develop great trust in their caregivers through personalized and intimate caregiving activities. As caregivers, we believe that everything we do--how we hold a baby, pick up a child, respond to their cries, talk to a child and others around them--helps the child create an understanding of their value as a person, their place in the world, and how they can engage with the world around them.
Our Educarers
Sarah Jiles
I have been in the education field since 2010. I have my Associates degrees in Early Childhood Education and Liberal Arts. I am fluent in American Sign Language and have worked as a neurodevelopment therapy specialist for children with Autism. I joined CM in 2023 and have two learners currently attending. When I am not in a studio, you can find me sewing clothing, camping with my two giant dogs or tending all my houseplants.
Taytum Watson
I am a CM graduate. I started my job at the Community Nurtury in the fall of 2022. During my time here, I’ve learned a lot - not only from the staff but from the learners as well. I love being outside and sharing my passion of being in nature with the children!
McCauley Walker
I have my degree in Business Administration. After becoming a parent, I grew a passion for the Montessori philosophy. I joined CM in 2024 as an educator in The Nurtury. My husband and I have a daughter who also attends here. When I’m not nurturing kids, my time is spent camping with family, hiking with our two Aussies, and listening to music!
"It is such a gift to not only know that my two babies' basic needs are being met, but that their emotional, social, and intellectual selves are being nurtured as well. I drop them off each day with confidence that they are receiving care that may even exceed what I could offer them at home!"
