Meet our Gardners

A circle of caring hands, rooted in knowledge and love.

At Blossom, we celebrate the beauty of diversity. Our multicultural team, enriched by various backgrounds, comes together through the shared foundation of Waldorf education, which nurtures our working as  early childhood caregivers. Together, we create a warm and inclusive environment where every child can flourish. Join us in this journey of growth and learning!

Our Story

Lilian is the heart of Blossom Waldorf Garden, where young children grow the way a garden does: slowly, through rhythm, warmth, and the beauty of everyday life. Trained in art education in Brazil and grounded in ten years of Waldorf early childhood practice, she tends each child with patience and artistic care. Her home is a place where seasons, songs, and simple work unfold together. Marcelo brings the outdoors, the kitchen, and the quiet wisdom of a philosopher to Blossom every day. As outdoor caregiver and chef, he nourishes children in body and spirit, from garden play to meals shared at the table. A software engineer by training, he thinks deeply about how things connect, and he brings that same care to every child’s day. He and Lilian raised their children, Liris and Arthur, through Waldorf education from kindergarten to high school. Today they are balanced, thoughtful young adults, each walking their own path, and Marcelo and Lilian welcome this new season of friendship and adventure with joy. Our assistants come from Guatemala and Mexico, and they bring their language and culture from their homelands into our days. Lullabies in Spanish drift through the garden beside the Portuguese and English of our home, so each child learns early that the world speaks in many voices and that every voice has a place here.
