Caroline Kepner
Five Day Kindergarten Assistant Teacher (Sunflower Class)
Caroline lives her life according to the philosophy that one must go outside in order to go inside, to connect with nature in order to connect with oneself. At Apple Blossom, Caroline strives to guide children toward appreciating the mind, body, and spirit through an Earthly lens. Growing up, Caroline was always among the trees. Here, she found serenity, inspiration, and home. Caroline continued to pursue this passion of hers later in life, notably going on a 101 day backpacking trip in the Uinta Mountains in 2022 and just recently going on a 30 day backpacking trip in the North Cascades. When she’s not in the woods, Caroline can likely be found in the yoga studio! She received her Meditation Teacher Certification in 2023 and strives to bring mindfulness practices to the children at Apple Blossoms. Caroline previously worked as a substitute preschool teacher at St. Francis of Assisi preschool, has been a loyal nanny to a number of families, was Assistant Director of Wilton Children’s Theater’s Spring 2024 production, and worked as an Event Entertainer for Critter Caravan. Caroline brings a sincerely enthusiastic, uplifting, deeply caring energy to the children she works with. She is thrilled to be joining the Apple Blossoms community to assist children in well-rounded, holistic development through the phenomenal Waldorf principles.
