Small by design

One child, or more.

Never a classroom. Always a real relationship.

One-on-one

Most sessions. Full attention, and a plan made for one.

Siblings or friends

On request, siblings or friends can learn side by side: sharing, taking turns, cheering each other on.

What we work on

Ready for school — and curious about everything.

Letters & sounds

Recognising letters, first sounds, and the joy of a good story.

Numbers & early math

Counting, sorting, patterns and shapes with hands-on materials.

Printing & fine motor

Pencil grip, cutting, tracing: small hands getting ready for school.

Reading & stories

Talking about books, predicting, retelling.

Science & nature

Little experiments, big questions.

Art, music & movement

Expression through colour, song and play.

Underneath it all: confidence, curiosity, independence, kindness — and a love of learning that lasts.

Meet your teacher

Hi, I’m Heather.

I’ve spent more than twenty years with young children — over ten as lead teacher at Dunloe Children’s Centre, and since 2004 teaching children across Toronto in their own homes. I believe children learn best when they feel safe, seen and curious, so every session starts with what your child already loves.

Parents say

“One of the highlights of his week.”

My four-year-old son looked forward to his enrichment lessons with her; it was one of the highlights of his week.

Orli · Forest Hill

She makes learning fun! I felt safe leaving my son with her… It was a terrific beginning to his school career.

Sari · Allenby

I loved watching how she spoke to my daughter and how well my little one responded back.

What does a session look like?

A mix of short, hands-on activities — a story, a letter game, something to build or draw, a little science — paced for your child.

Can more than one child join?

Yes. Siblings or friends of a similar age can share a session, though most sessions are one-on-one.

Do we need to prepare anything?

Just a table and a little space. I bring all the materials.

How do we start?

Call or email. We’ll chat about your child and find a time that works.

Let’s talk about your child.

I’d love to hear what they’re into.
