What People Are Saying
Autumn is the most compassionate, honest, knowledgeable and kind early childhood education professional I have encountered during my time as a mom. My mind was put at ease when I dropped my daughter off at school knowing that she was in Autumn's trustworthy and caring hands. Autumn went above and beyond as a caretaker but also in providing advice to my family about parenting and the many stages of baby and toddler development.

Mom, Who?
"You moms, and you dads are the ones who are there, we are always there and in the same way you never think to thank your hot water for just being there when you need it most, we are the dependable, stable people in their lives. They don’t remember us because they never have to imagine us not there."

Accepting what is.
"The reality is that we will never again have this much time with our children and we will never again be able to be this involved in their academic lives and while it feels overwhelming now, we perhaps will look back and miss these moments of closeness. Just a thought, one which can be discarded but one I urge you to breath into, just to see where it lands. Sometimes the most simple answers are the ones hardest to see."
