MEET NATALIE STOLZHEISE
The moment a child's hands touch clay, something magical happens. Their eyes light up. Their imagination awakens. And suddenly, anything is possible.
This is the magic I get to witness every day as the founder of Clay Club. After years of working with children as a career nanny, I discovered that clay isn't just an art medium – it's a gateway to confidence, creativity, and joy.
"There's something incredible about watching a child transform a simple ball of clay into their unique creation. The pride in their eyes when they show off their finished piece, the excitement when they discover they can make anything they imagine – these are the moments that inspired me to create Clay Club."
"Throughout my years as a childcare professional, I've witnessed how children thrive when given the opportunity to create with their hands. I have crerated a way to bridge my experience in childcare with my love of ceramics to create a positive space where every child can discover their creative potential."
THE MAGIC OF CLAY?
DISCOVERING POSSIBILITIES
Watch your child's eyes light up as they learn they can create anything they imagine. From whimsical creatures to functional pottery, every piece is a new adventure in possibility.
FINDING FLOW
In a world of constant digital distraction, clay offers a rare opportunity for children to slow down, focus, and lose themselves in the joy of creating. It's their chance to unplug and unleash their imagination.
BUILDING CONFIDENCE
There's something powerful about transforming raw clay into a finished piece. With each creation, children discover their own unique artistic voice and the confidence to express it.
CREATING MEMORIES
Every piece your child creates tells a story – their story. These aren't just art projects; they're treasured keepsakes that capture moments of pure creativity and joy.
