With over 20 years of teaching experience and a Master's in Education, Anat brings her unique approach to children's development through cooking.
As a certified cooking therapist, she has dedicated her career to creating a safe and nurturing environment where children can express themselves, build confidence, and develop essential life skills through culinary exploration.
Anat's passion for helping children grow through food stems from her belief that cooking engages all senses and provides a natural setting for emotional expression and social interaction.
Her warm, intuitive style and hands-on guidance help each child feel seen and supported. Whether stirring batter or sharing stories around the kitchen table, Anat ensures every moment becomes an opportunity for connection, creativity, and personal growth.
Cooking provides a safe outlet for emotional expression. Children learn to process feelings through the tactile experience of food preparation, building self-confidence and pride in their creations.
Through measuring, mixing, and following recipes, children enhance fine motor skills, sequencing abilities, and sensory integration while practicing focus and attention.
Our small group setting encourages teamwork, communication, and sharing. Children learn to collaborate, take turns, and appreciate others' contributions in a supportive environment.
Cooking is an art form that encourages imagination. Children explore colors, textures, and flavors, learning to make choices and express their individuality through each dish they create.
Handling ingredients, using tools safely, and cleaning up after themselves teaches children accountability and independence. They gain a sense of ownership and take pride in completing tasks on their own.
The step-by-step nature of cooking promotes mindfulness. Children focus on the present moment, helping to reduce anxiety and improve emotional regulation in a calming, hands-on environment.
