Founder & Lead Educator
​
Meet Erin, the mama behind the chaos, joy, and sticky fingers of Miller, her adorable three-year-old. If you ever wondered what it's like to juggle motherhood, a partnership with the ever-patient Jason, and a love for teaching, you're in for a treat.
Erin's journey began in the town of Issaquah, where she learned that life is an adventure, best navigated with a good sense of humor and a bit of caffeine. After obtaining her BA in child development from Western Washington University, and earning her Washington State Teaching Certificate, she discovered the magic of shaping young minds is both an art and a workout routine. Erin went on to earn a Masters in Education, spending 15 years teaching elementary school.
Three years ago, Erin traded in elementary school classroom chaos for the serenity of North Bend. She insists that the only thing better than the view is the camaraderie of other moms and neighbors always at the ready to offer a helping hand. While enjoying motherhood, she also taught music and sensory classes for the local Si View community center.
Erin enjoys being a mama – a role she takes on with a mix of grace and goofy dance moves and her hobbies include spending quality time with friends and family, exploring the local community (and its coffee shops – because caffeine is a parent's best friend), and going on hikes that have more snack breaks than actual hiking.
Erin is looking forward to making Journeys her next adventure and would love to have you join her. So, grab a cup of coffee (or tea, if you're feeling fancy) and join Erin on her journey through the chaos and joy of motherhood. Laughter guaranteed, and compassion strongly encouraged!
