Stephanie Campo of SC Environmentalists LLC has worked with us on developing sustainable outdoor education areas. We have found the combination of educational and environmental knowledge to be extremely helpful as she has collaborated with us, giving ideas and directions we had not achieved ourselves.

We had some wonderful experiences this summer thanks to SC Environmentalist guiding our Summer Camp. Stephanie helped our educators and children delve into projects that explored the importance of taking small steps to benefit the environment. Her collaboration made our “Caretakers of the Earth Summer Program” more meaningful as she helped educators and children see their role in taking social-responsibility. Stephanie not only planted a garden, she inspired children to create a space for sound, sensory and color stimulation. There was an array of provocations such as nature made bug house to attract, preserve and study insects closely. Stephanie also guided student inquiry using the Language of Thinking. For the first time in many years, as a school; we are being environmentally conscious and proactive in doing our small part—-Thanks Stephanie.

My three year old daughter just started Miniature Earth Explorers, and we are so happy with this program. My daughter comes home each day so excited about all of the things she’s learned - about bugs, the temperature of the earth and the EPA (!) to name a few. We are always looking for new ways to challenge and engage her, and this introduction to environmental science is a perfect way to do that - not to mention how much fun she has! Miss Stephanie is wonderful with the kids and clearly passionate about the subject matter. We wholeheartedly recommend this wonderful class to parents and students!

My daughter loves her Miniature Earth Explorers class! Each week, the students begin a new adventure which furthers their knowledge of the environment and the world around them. From conducting scientific experiments to going on scavenger hunts, Miss Stephanie makes the learning experience both fun and interactive, and teaches in an age appropriate manner. It is so important for children to learn about the earth and how to protect it, and Miniature Earth Explorers provides a wonderful forum to start an open dialogue with our children on related topics. The weekly newsletter is also very helpful in this regard, and we love seeing what the kids are up to each week through the photos. I am so glad we signed up for this amazing class! Thank you Miss Stephanie!

Working alongside Stephanie has been incredibly rewarding. I have had the pleasure working with her for 2 beach clean ups and sea oat restorations at Crandon Park. She is positive, confident, and so excited to be making a difference. Her love and passion for teaching kids about the environment easily radiates. I have had the best experience working alongside Stephanie, and can not wait to partner with her in the future.

My 3.5 year old son really enjoys attending Ms. Stephanie’s M.E.E.tm class every week at our preschool. Our favorite part are the weekly journals detailing what they learned or what hands on activity was done enabling us to talk about it at home. Best part is journals come with pictures so you can really grasp their experience. Thank you Ms. Stephanie for a fantastic experience!

My son loves to start his week with his Miniature Earth Explorers class! The best thing I can say is when Monday comes, Mark actually wants to go to school instead of fussing about about “having to go to school and he wants to stay home.” He says every class he goes on a nature adventure. I feel really good that he is learning about the world around him and the impact that humans have on the earth. Since he started the class, I noticed he is more engaged with nature and our world, and I like how he is developing a love of science and asking questions about related subjects. He asked us for a map of Earth and when we put one up in his room, he asked what the blue meant, what the green areas were, etc.I would recommend Miniature Earth Explorers to every parent who wants to foster their child’s love of nature.

We love SC Environmentalists! My boys have learned so much and have brought so much into our home. The boys always find a way to relate everyday activities back to their experiences with Ms Stephanie. We cannot throw anything away in our house with discussing how we might be able to repurpose or reuse it. My favorite moment came late one night at bed time we were reading about sharks and one of my boys simply said “is it fresh or salt” immediately I knew he was referring to the water and that it came from his weekly class with SC Environmentalists. We couldn’t ask for more!

I have learned so much from you. Your knowledge and your passion shows. I really enjoy working with you. You are amazing.

I am thrilled with everything about the Mini Earth Explorers run by Stephanie. I love watching my daughter learn about the environment and how to care for it. The material has real substance (she has her smart grandmother googling various concepts) and it is delivered in a thoughtful, engaging and fun way. Vibrant experiments are accompanied by stories, songs even dancing. A really outstanding experience for both of us....
