Madelaine Snyder

STAR GARDEN ASSISTANT, EXTENDED CARE ASSISTANT

Madelaine was originally introduced to Waldorf education as a parent. In Waldorf, she quickly found a place not only of education but of community for both herself and her young child. Within a year, she knew that this was the next chapter of her life.

Born and raised in Kansas City, Madelaine was part of a large family. As the oldest of eight children, her passion and understanding of early life began to form at a young age. She spent most of her time exploring nature and caring for her younger siblings.

In adulthood, Madelaine has spent the last decade of her life independently educating herself on early childhood and attachment. She strongly believes in and has a deep reverence for the beauty and wonder of childhood. Madelaine is thrilled to join City Of Fountains as an assistant in the Star Garden kindergarten classroom and being a small part of this incredible work.

At home, Madelaine loves being a full time parent. She enjoys hiking with her family, building things, gardening (indoor and outdoor) and crocheting.
