About Stephanie

Stephanie and Clover

Hi there! I'm Stephanie, a seasoned Early Childhood educator with a background in Psychology and Early Childhood Education. Over the past two decades, I've immersed myself in various roles within the field, including public school kindergarten teacher, special education inclusion aide, and currently as a Developmental Specialist for an Early Intervention program. Alongside these professional endeavors, I proudly fulfill the role of a mother to two wonderful grown children. Through my journey, I've discovered my passion for providing hands-on support, strategies, and resources to families navigating the critical stages of early childhood development. Throughout my extensive experience, I've identified a significant gap when children transition out of Early Intervention at age three or no longer qualify based on evaluation results. This transition presents a pivotal moment where the desire for ongoing parent coaching becomes evident. Whether it's the frustration of navigating public school services, the anxiety of awaiting developmental evaluations, or the overwhelming task of finding appropriate medical and therapeutic resources, I understand the challenges families face. Maybe your child was never in Early Intervention but you have recently had concerns regarding your child's development. Village of Littles is here for all of it.

Me and my little one's then and not so little now!
