About Nora Hidalgo

Nora originally graduated with a degree in Industrial Biochemical Engineering in Mexico (UAM), where she studied life at the molecular level. With the birth of her two children, her perspective widened to include life at a much broader scale. Recognizing the profound responsibility of raising her children well, she devoted herself to learning everything she could about human development and education.

Despite years of academic study, Nora came to realize that she had not been prepared for the most important role of her life: motherhood.

Determined to give her children the best possible upbringing, she discovered Waldorf pedagogy and trained as a teacher at Rudolf Steiner College in California. She went on to work as a kindergarten teacher and later as a Coordinator at the Waldorf School of Cuernavaca, before teaching Spanish at Summerfield Waldorf School and Farm in California.

About Tania Johnson

Tania was born in South Africa, where she received an Honours degree in psychology. She spent several years teaching in Taiwan before adventuring to places like Mount Everest base camp and the Andes in Peru and Bolivia. She then completed a one-year internship at Cancer Treatment Centres of America in Chicago, where her focus was on supporting patients in the stem cell unit. Tania then earned her Master’s degree in counselling from City University of Seattle. She and her husband were foster parents to four First Nations children for five years and have two bio children of their own. She currently supervises Master’s-level students and provisional psychologists. Tania works primarily from the perspective of attachment theory, which focuses on bonds between parents and children. Her gift, both in the therapy room and when writing, is to translate the latest research into concrete strategies that parents can implement in everyday life with their children.
