Jillian Ferraro Resources

After spending almost a decade teaching in public schools from Preschool to 2nd Grade, I left the classroom in 2019 to tutor students with learning disabilities, including dyslexia, with the Orton Gillingham method. I love creating play-based learning experiences for early childhood and primary. I want parents, homeschoolers, and teachers to have resources to support children through sensory bins, natural play, and many other developmentally appropriate practices. I also think parents and students deserve organizational materials that match their lifestyles. I love creating planners, especially Notion planners, for teachers and parents.

I am a strong supporter of developmentally appropriate practices. For young children, this means learning through play! I also am a deep lover of quality children's books and include reading in my resources as much as possible! I believe in science-based reading instruction and often use and recommend a systematic phonics approach to teaching reading.

Yet to be added

I graduated with a B.A. in Psychology from Boston University. I later got a dual Masters of Ed in Elementary Education and Special Education. I have continued my education through courses, reading, and workshops to stay current on my practice.

Creating a cozy life and home for myself and my family! I am a 31-year-old wife and mama who wants to create magical moments in our everyday life. I am passionate about helping families create and implement new routines, rhythms, and traditions that work with their schedules and the busyness in their lives. I currently live in Rhode Island with my husband, almost two year old, and dog. I love collecting books, holidays, crafting, DIY projects, gardening, and Disney. My main hobbies (this week anyways) are collecting Pokemon cards, crocheting, and gardening.
