Anastasia Sofia Munson Rodriguez: eCE

Anastasia has worked with children in several capacities for the last decade. She has worked in multiple outdoor based, early learning programs across Victoria with children as young as infancy to elementary ages. Additionally, she has worked at international levels with children across the world during cultural exchange programs. Anastasia is a strong advocate for child-led, outdoor play. She believes the outdoor classroom is the ideal learning space for children. It is in the natural world where children reveal their strength and power. Anastasia feels very fortunate to support children everyday in forming a relationship and meaningful connection to the natural environment. One of Anastasia's upcoming goals is to become an instructor for parents and families for a course on the high value of forest play. Anastasia is also a strong advocate for creating multi-dimensional, enriching, and artistic experiences for young children. She believes that these experiences foster their self-awareness, self-expression, and self-regulation abilities. Anastasia asserts that, art, for a young child, plays an essential part in their healthy, optimal development.
