Eden Bova

About Us

Early Childhood Educator

Eden has woven her love for early childhood development through a tapestry of diverse experiences over the past six years, working closely with parents and children in various capacities. Raised by a mother who is a child welfare social worker and foster parent, Eden’s early life was steeped in lessons of social justice, inclusivity, and understanding neurodivergence in children. This unique upbringing ignited her passion for supporting all facets of child development.

Eden’s journey included earning her certification as a labor and postpartum doula, where she honed her skills in active listening and sensitive observation. Her work in hospitals and homebirth deepened her appreciation for the crucial role of collaborative relationships between care providers and parents.

Additionally, Eden has worked with children on the autism spectrum and holds a certification from the Oregon Department of Disabilities, which reflects her commitment to educational inclusivity and accessibility. She holds a special place in her heart for these incredible kids, finding joy and inspiration in their unique perspectives.

Currently, Eden is pursuing her Early Childhood Teacher Certification through the Micha-el Institute in Portland, Oregon. Beyond the classroom, Eden embodies a playful spirit and a profound joy in her interactions with little ones. She believes in the transformative power of education and is passionate about creating spaces where children can thrive in their authenticity.
