Romina Caro: Nurturing Childhood Through Waldorf Education
In this heartfelt interview, we sit down with Romina Caro, an experienced Waldorf teacher from Argentina with over 15 years of dedication to education. Currently teaching at Luces del Valle, and previously serving as the director at John Dewey and Cuatro Elementos, Romina shares her inspiring journey of following her passion for working with children.
From a young age, Romina discovered her love for teaching, gathering neighborhood children to share what she learned in school with a chalkboard she asked for for Christmas when she was six years old.. Despite societal expectations and challenges, she listened to her inner calling, eventually embracing her role as a teacher.
Romina delves deep into her exploration of alternative pedagogies, including Waldorf education, which emphasizes emotional and spiritual development alongside academics. She discusses the importance of creating safe, nurturing environments where children can grow with confidence and connect with the wonder and amazement of world around them.
Key topics include:
- How early experiences shaped her passion for teaching.
- Overcoming societal and familial expectations to follow her heart.
- The evolution of her teaching philosophy and search for holistic pedagogies.
- The unique principles of Waldorf education, including fostering a sense of wonder, beauty, and connection to nature.
