About the Family

We are a warm, creative, and adventurous family of four with two children (ages 5 and 2). We split our time between multiple properties in New York, Los Angeles, and just outside LA, and we travel frequently.

Both parents work in creative fields and lead busy, dynamic schedules. We deeply value structure, respectful parenting, clear boundaries, and a calm, grounded presence in our home. Routines for our children are consistent and important. Screen use is limited (travel & some on weekends). Our children thrive with curiosity, imagination, structure, and clear boundaries. We follow a respectful parenting approach (RIE in the younger years) and prioritize a peaceful, supportive environment.
