WHAT OUR LEADERSHIP TEAM BRINGS TO THE CAMP EXPERIENCE

With a combined background in education, coaching, childhood development, and inclusive support, our camp leaders bring heart, experience, and expertise to everything we do. Together, we’ve worked in summer camps, daycare settings, church programs, and schools, supporting kids of all abilities through fun, empowerment-based learning.

We are certified coaches and educational professionals with over 20 years of collective experience working with children—from one-on-one mentorship to large group settings. We blend creativity, leadership development, and emotional intelligence into every activity, helping kids grow in confidence, communication, and self-worth.

At our camps, every child is seen, valued, and celebrated. We’re here to create a safe, inclusive, and exciting environment where your child can thrive.

SPECIAL NEEDS CAMPERS

We are committed to creating an inclusive, supportive, and welcoming environment for all children. If your child has any level of special needs—whether identified or suspected (including communication, developmental, intellectual, physical, emotional, or social)—we kindly ask that you connect with us prior to registration.

Because our camp is hosted in a home-based setting, we want to ensure we are fully prepared to meet your child’s unique needs in a safe and nurturing way. A brief online meeting allows us to walk you through what a typical day looks like and gives us the opportunity to learn more about your child’s personality, interests, and the best ways we can support them.

To arrange your online meeting, please email us at contact@poliandashleyd.com. We’re happy to work with you to make this summer experience accessible and enjoyable for every camper.
