Clair is a Denver native, and attended the Denver Waldorf School from kindergarten through 8th grade. After graduating high school from Highland Hall Waldorf School in Los Angeles, California, Clair worked and traveled through the US, Europe and returned to Denver to earn a BA in Creative Writing from Metropolitan University Denver, where she enjoyed working with high school students in the Upward Bound Program. Overseas called once again, and after volunteering at a Waldorf initiative in Kathmandu, Nepal, she pursued her Masters in Education and Waldorf training at Antioch University New England. Clair then took a job teaching Kindergarten at the Brooklyn Waldorf School for 5 years, where she helped form the school leadership and shape the early childhood program. After having her first son, Clair and her family moved back home to Denver. Having her own children ignited enthusiasm and desire to support parents through the early years, and she began offering caregiver/child classes at Boulder Valley Waldorf School, and earned a certification in Doula training. Clair now offers an infant/caregiver class at the Denver Waldorf School, directs and teaches Songbirds, a Waldorf inspired early childhood home program, and mentors teachers in the area. Her husband also teaches at the Denver Waldorf School, and they have two boys ages 7 and 9! When the family is not busy with school, they love camping, basketball, gardening, and traveling.
