Creative Kids. Magical Playdates.

I’m Nikita, a homeschooling mama with a background as a nanny and paraeducator. Over the years, I’ve discovered a deep love for guiding children through hands-on, creative learning experiences.

At TinkerHause, kids experience the magic of learning through inclusive, sensory-friendly play experiences while connecting with their community — completely screen-free! Our play-based approach combines sensory bins, STEM experiments, nature and animal encounters, process-based arts & crafts, and imaginative learning to spark curiosity, creativity, and joy in every child.

Born to Play. Built to Move.
