Episode 8: Share Your Journey with Anna Crabb

Anna Crabb is the owner of Stoneybrook Hollow, a play-based, Reggio-inspired, early childhood program in Utah.

Anna has a degree in human development and international development. She focused on issues in early childhood and primary education, which is where her passion for advocacy comes from! She has training in Montessori, Reggio Emilia and democratic education. She was an educator in three different schools before she decided to start Stoneybrook Hollow.

She is passionate about creating learning environments where young children are honored for all that they are. She creates spaces to ignite their curiosities and extend their current interests. She champions child-led, open-ended play!

Anna is married and has two young children, one of whom is disabled. Anna loves to travel – she’s about to head out on a 3 month adventure around the UK! She also loves to read. Right now, she’s enjoying sci-fi and historical non-fiction.
