Miss Laila serves as a guide, facilitating child-lead play through natural curiosity. A tree-hugging mother of two, retired RN, and lover of wild places and living things, she is passionate about sharing the freedom of playing outdoors with children.  In addition to nature school, she organizes family-friendly bike rides and camping and backpacking trips.  As Mr. Rogers sings, "it's a neighborly day in the beauty wood."
