our director

Hi! I’m Miss Bee, owner and main caregiver at Pumpkin Patch Acres Early Learning and Child Care.

I am a wife, mother, recreational musher and I have worked with children professionally for over 30 years as a nanny, private tutor, teacher, and daycare owner/director.

After exploring a variety of educational approaches, I fell in love with the Waldorf philosophy and have dedicated myself to learning and applying its principles and techniques to my program.

I am certified in CPR/First Aid, have extended background checks and operate legally under Idaho law as a license-exempt family home daycare.

I work well with working families who are looking for long term, full time child care. Parents who value a wholesome, traditional childhood experience and are looking for a safe, reliable alternative to high-stimulation, overcrowded commercial centers fit best with my program.

I would love to welcome your family to our little patch!
