Provide young children with a quality Montessori learning experience, in order to promote intellectual, physical, and social/emotional growth.
Erin went to NKU for English Literature and Creative Writing. After that, she received her Montessori teaching credentials from GGCME (now known as Crescent Ridge). Erin has been with MCR for 15 years, taking a pause to live and teach in the Bay Area of California.
Erin’s daughters went to MCR through Kindergarten and are both part of Cincinnati Public Schools. Erin enjoys interior design and creating spaces with her husband John, who is an architect. They are continually working on their home in Northside that was built in the early 1900s. Erin also enjoys traveling and learning about other cultures. Some of her favorite places have been Turkey, Japan, and Vietnam.
Erin was drawn to the Montessori method because traditional schooling didn’t feel like the right fit when she was a student herself. She honors the philosophy’s focus on seeing each child as their own person, with their own individual needs. She loves connecting with children and helping them understand tricky concepts in creative ways. Teaching children to read is one of the biggest joys in her life.
