Lindsey has attended Waldorf lower grades trainings at The Rudolf Steiner College in Sacramento, CA and Kimberton Hills, PA.
Lindsey is a graduate of Prairie Hill Waldorf School and has taught at the school in varying capacities since 2009.
Lindsey feels that Waldorf education provides the children with a curriculum that meets their needs on their own time. She loves that each grade is carefully crafted so that the children continue to find wonder and beauty in the world, and that upon graduation from the school they can move forth in the world with a sense of purpose.

Chris believes that unlocking the potential of each student and guiding them to become creative, free-thinking individuals is one of the greatest gifts teaching provides. She values the opportunity to follow children through their different developmental stages and getting to deeply know each unique child. She brings understanding, patience and a wealth of knowledge to her students, helping them to thrive in all stages of their development.
