Jenna

Jenna W.

Jenna is certified in Early Childhood Education and Development and has a degree in Medical Assisting, which she has primarily used in the last few years as a birth doula. As a homeschooling mama to four children, she values family and her Christian faith.

"My draw to Creation Acres comes from my love of the Charlotte Mason/Montessori/Reggio Emilia approach to schooling. I believe strongly that learning should be child-led and project-based. I think children learn the most when they are captivated by what they are learning."
