Grateful day! I'm Taya. I've worked with youth from newborns through high school. Teaching means giving children tools to expand their imagination. I use art therapy to help kids express feelings and heal. Creating art gives children a safe way to express feelings, build confidence, and heal. Whether we're painting, building, or storytelling, every child's creativity is welcome here. I strive for excellence, and my classroom is a space where every child feels seen, valued, and inspired. Your child is precious, and I treat your trust with great care. I believe every child deserves to feel safe, celebrated, and free to be exactly who they are. You are my partner in this journey. I'll share your child's growth, celebrate their wins, and welcome your questions and ideas. Can't wait to make ART together! Learn how to solve real-world obstacles! Create experiences that will be everlasting !
