Stephanie Jouflas
(she/her)
Lead Teacher in Dogwood
brings over six years of Montessori experience to the classroom, along with a background in early childhood care as a newborn-to-toddler nanny and a teacher in Seattle Public Schools enrichment programs. She holds an AMS Montessori credential (2024) and a degree from the UW School of Public Health. What draws Stephanie to Montessori is the peaceful and loving environment it creates for both teachers and students. “I love watching children thrive and learn to love learning in these spaces,” she says. Outside the classroom, Stephanie is just as vibrant. She met her wife playing roller derby and still skates for a local league. The two enjoy spending time together playing Dungeons & Dragons. Stephanie also enjoys sewing and is on a personal mission to perfect her coffee-making skills.
