About us
Hello, I'm Jess.
I'm 34, have been a teacher for ten years and will soon be a mother myself. My work has put me alongside children for many years, and I see how differently they feel, learn and take in the world. Above all, it taught me one thing: there is rarely one right answer.
My travels and a longer stay in South America widened my view of childhood and family, and showed me how differently “normal” can look.
Out of my experience with children, new perspectives and a large dose of curiosity, little rootlings grew — from the wish to look more closely, ask questions and pass knowledge on in an understandable way.
