Emily Plank is the mom/author/educator behind the popular blog: Abundant Life Children. She loves to write and in her work she integrates her training in child development with her lived experience mothering three young children. Emily has tremendous experience working with young children and their families. She ran an in-home childcare program for ten years and her work quickly expanded to include teaching and mentoring other teachers and parents.
Emily values play, spaciousness, respect for children as persons, and a posture of openness. Her presence is warm and gracious.
She and her family are in the midst of their own developmental transition. Earlier this year Emily closed her center and she and her family are preparing to spend several months travelling abroad through a semester at sea.
Her writing has been instructive and encouraging to many and it was a pleasure to chat with her here on Parenting Reimagined.
