Regardless of your knowledge and experiences with science, YOU have what it takes to be a
Facilitator of Science Learning
for your child.
It all begins with using
WONDER AS YOUR COMPASS.
"I propose we do more than just love our kids to the moon and back. Let's love them deep into outer space and far below the ocean's surface by helping them SEE, FEEL, AND DISCOVER what is possible."
Wonder is My Compass is the scientific field guide parents didn't know they needed.
Until Now.

Wonder is my compass is the book every parent should be reading. Jayme makes science inviting, accessible, and a grand family adventure. You can’t help but be swept up in her relatable and humorous stories. And, the activities she suggests for inspiring wonder can be done regardless of time or budget. You will “wonder” why you didn’t read this sooner!

Wonder is My Compass is part self-help, part science field guide, part 'mom'oir. Never before have science and creativity been so seamlessly woven into bite-size pieces that parents can easily apply.

Launch Party
Grateful for an amazing gathering of friends, family, and community at Keller Street CoWork in Petaluma to celebrate the book's launch. Collectively discussing science is my very favorite hobby. Together, we can help children understand that science is within their reach at all times.
Book Signing in Maui
Thank you to Maui Ocean Center for allowing me to come back "home" and re-connect with the staff, guests, and marine life. I was very grateful to have the opportunity to dive in the Open Ocean exhibit afterwards. Connecting with young visitors from the other side of the glass is so deeply rewarding!
