About
Heidi Alder was once a medical professional in the dental field when she delivered a beautiful little boy, named Sai. As time went on she wanted to get back to work and so enrolled her boy into traditional childcare at a large center.
It was a difficult experience for her since none of the facilities she brought her son to shared her values. They put him in front of screens, he’d be neglected, ignored, exposed to chemicals, and fed unhealthy foods.
Until one day the Corona Virus came around. No longer could Heidi trust these facilities with Sai’s health, especially with her other concerns left unaddressed. Walking with her son in the park, through a series of remarkable events, she learned about Green Village Daycare.
Heidi realized that if she is wanted the perfect daycare for her son that she would need to create it! To avoid re-inventing the wheel, Heidi teamed up with Green Village Daycare to start an exciting career that she’s passionate about, and she managed to run it from the nature preserve near her house!
Today, Heidi is ready to take on a limited amount of children, to give them what she always wanted for her beautiful baby boy, a safe, nature based, child-care.
Interesting fact: Heidi once-upon a time lived in the mountains of Colorado, doing her favorite activity: Snow sports!
