Nature Educator

My name is Karelle. I’m very excited about exploring with your little ones.

After finishing my teaching degree in Quebec, I decided to live a new adventure and settle on the island. It was my first time in British Columbia. I fell in love with the place. A magnificent land where I can back country ski, mountain bike, hike, relax at the beach, observe nature and simply enjoy the outdoors. Since I was young, I’ve loved working with children in summer camp, in daycare and in school. I think that nature is an amazing environment to let children develop at their own pace and according to their interests. I love to see them blossom and be curious about everything. I’m very excited to put both of my passions together, children and outdoors. I can’t wait to meet your little ones and support them on whatever adventures they wish to take.
