Hi everyone! I wanted to take a moment to share a little bit of the real me behind The Creative Cocoon and to say how grateful I am for my future members! (Right now I just launched and have an โempty classroomโ) You may be some of the first to join!
Iโm Ily (pronounced EyeLee), a mom of five, a holistic practitioner, an early childhood educator, and someone who has always believed that children thrive in environments filled with rhythm, imagination, nature, and emotional safety. My work has taken many forms over the yearsโฆ digital design, helping local creators launch their businesses, teaching Reiki, supporting small brands, and working with families in my community.
But the heart of my lifelong passion has always been early childhood learning and whole child wellness.
The Creative Cocoon grew out of that passion ๐ a gentle blend of nature-inspired play, mindful rhythm, emotional awareness, music & movement, sensory exploration, and simple seasonal magic. I currently teach in person two days a week (ages 2โ6), and Iโve poured everything Iโve learned into creating this space for families, homeschoolers, and educators who want to bring more connection and creativity into their days.
My hope is that this community becomes a soft place to land, a resource hub, a rhythm guide, and a supportive circle for anyone raising or teaching little ones with heart and intention.
Thank you for being here. Iโm excited to grow this space with you. If you ever need anything or want a customized resource, feel free to ask. This Cocoon was created for you. ๐๐ฆ
With love,
Ily ๐ค (oh, and yes, my name stands for I Love You. My Grandmas idea ๐ฅฐ)
