Consulting

Are you looking for direction to a play-based journey within your home child care?  Are you lost, overwhelmed or losing your passion?

I can help you with a road map that lets you regain your passion as a home educator. I have spent several years stuck.  Years when the rubber met the road, and it was hard – yes, it led to a full-on Burnout.  I spent YEARS crawling my way back to what I love, and it is still a work in progress – the result is never complete – we are lifelong learners.

I am Suzette Salmon – I work in the trenches with you, living parallel lives even when our stories do not mirror a specific location, home structure, or government agency.

I can be the best thing to help you through your daily structure, home design and activities – I help home educators THRIVE.

Schedule some time with me!

A 1-hour brainstorm session costs $99

A 3-week session – 1 hour per week costs $250

Pssst – I am working on some courses which will be uploaded soon – think about doing these at your own pace – yes! You’ll have the ability to be patient and flexible with yourself, just as you are with the children.

Can’t wait for the courses – you need more than the 3 sessions above – then email me, and we will talk more.

I am your educator in the trenches with you – Suzette Salmon aka Miss Sue / Sue Sue

Here’s an example of our cleanup process. The bell goes off for lunchtime and the children automatically start singing and cleaning up (I don’t usually sing but they do). Some are singing only for the song while others are busy cleaning up like ‘the  little red hen.’ A beautiful example of when you work alone and the children are your teammates. 
Yes, they’re my little learners and teammates - all hands on deck. We have a wonderful symbiotic relationship harmoniously working together for the good of the environment.
It makes this work enjoyable and it also helps all to learn and appreciate each other - especially when you have a yard this size.

Beautiful slow approach to my early years classroom. I work alone and it’s very important that we all enjoy the space. Children are allowed to move materials, gather, play, learn and then clean up after. 
- A small mixed-age ratio provides many opportunities for discoveries, play and lots of hours outdoors. 
-This was a rainy day, we also harvest rain for their unending play.

Nature gives children something real to think about. Listen to the children - bumblebees and butterflies like nectar too.
