OUR STORY

OUR STORY ☺

Hello friends, I’m Nora!

I am a New York City native, Pace University graduate, finance career-woman (once upon a time), but most importantly a wife and Mama to three beautiful girls – Ella, Alissa and Lily. I fell in love with Westport over a decade ago when my husband, Andre, took me out on a date to see the Fourth of July Firework show at Compo Beach. Having rooted my family in the very same town has been a dream!

The idea of Crafty Kids has been in the works for quite some time. Being a stay-at-home Mom, especially during the pandemic, played a huge role in allowing me to get back into the passion I have for hands on crafts. My daughters are the reason behind Crafty Kids. Their thirst for crafting and all things art have inspired me to create a space for children, like my own, where they can simply let their imagination and creativity run wild. The pure joy my children display when experimenting with various art materials and mediums, slime, up-cycling (gotta love decanting days) and creating “Mater Pieces” is the driving factor behind my business. Enthralled by everything our community has to offer motivates me to further enrich it with a creative, fun, nurturing environment for our children!

Our goal is to provide a fun space for children to grow their creative and social confidence through process art, hands-on DIY crafts and sensory play.

Your Kid leaves happy and the mess behind!
