About Us

---

Hi! I’m Maya—mom of two beautiful little girls, certified Mindfulness Coach and creator of Mindful Kids Summer Camp. 

Why I created this camp: I created this Summer Camp because I believe that children thrive when they have space to move, create and connect with nature, themselves and each other.

What to expect: Mindful Kids Retreat is a small-group summer camp hosted in my private outdoor art studio in Encinitas Village Park. The program is designed for small groups, ensuring and nurturing creativity, mindfulness and meaningful connections through daily art projects, fun yoga breaks and joyful outdoor activities and games. 

My background: Before launching this camp, I spent  15+ years as a licensed Real Estate Broker in San Diego (yes, background checked, fingerprinted in addition to my CPR certification). I hold a Bachelor's Degree in Industrial Design, where I honed the hands-on creative skills that now shape our curriculum. I’ve also studied Psychology, Ayurveda and Early Childhood Development. 

Our commitment: I’ve created this program with safety, structure and intention, so parents feel confident their kids are supported and the kiddos feel free to just be themselves, exploring, expressing connecting with each other. 

Our program was thoughtfully designed and filled with activities that help our children to be mindful and present, while building focus, awareness and creatively exploring their endless imagination. 

All materials are provided, class sizes are small, and yes, there’s shade, healthy snacks, playground and lots of love. 

I’m so excited to welcome your family into our calm, playful and mindful environment we’ve created... a space where your kids can feel at home, making new friends, while having the best summer ever!

With kindness,

Maya
