Ms. Rachel is Montessori certified for children from birth to age three, and it was at Kinder Haus Montessori where she first fell in love with the Montessori method in 2016. She began her journey as a Toddler Aftercare Teacher and went on to gain valuable experience working in both the Preschool and Primary classrooms at the Main Campus.
A proud Montessori parent, Ms. Rachel has loved watching all four of her children grow and thrive at Kinder Haus—from her oldest, Julian (6), to her 4-year-old triplets, Melina, Ariana, and Dominic, all of whom began as infants.
Over the years, Ms. Rachel has had the opportunity to serve as both a Nido and Primary guide at several Montessori schools on both the Northshore and Southshore. Her favorite part of being a Montessori guide is witnessing each child’s joy and independence blossom as they discover their favorite materials and begin to create and learn on their own.
Her passion for caring for children began long before Kinder Haus—she previously worked in childcare, served as a nanny, and taught in after-school art programs.
A proud Ragin’ Cajun, Ms. Rachel holds a BFA in Visual Arts from the University of Louisiana at Lafayette. When she’s not in the classroom, she enjoys drawing, painting, exploring nature, and spending quality time with her husband and their four lively kiddos.
