Meet your guides
Ms. Goose & Ms. Swan.
Silly Goose Social Club is led by two educators: Katelyn, who the children know as Ms. Goose, and Amanda, who they know as Ms. Swan.
Meet Ms. Goose
Hi, I’m Ms. Goose.
- Early Childhood Educator
- Degree in Early Childhood Education
- Former preschool teacher
- 10+ years of early childhood experience
Hello there! I'm Katelyn, the founder of Silly Goose Social Club, though most children know me simply as Ms. Goose.
For as long as I can remember, I've believed that childhood should be filled with imagination, wonder, messy creativity, and meaningful play. Before creating Silly Goose Social Club, I spent years working with young children as an educator, nanny, and childcare professional. I hold a degree in Early Childhood Education and have dedicated my career to helping children learn, grow, and thrive through hands-on experiences and authentic connections.
Silly Goose was born from a simple idea: children don't need more screens, schedules, or pressure. They need opportunities to explore, create, imagine, and be fully seen by caring adults who value the magic of childhood.
Each Silly Goose adventure begins with a wonderful story. Whether we're building fairy gardens, creating masterpieces, hunting for treasures, or getting lost in a book together, my goal is always the same: to create joyful experiences that inspire curiosity, confidence, and connection.
I can't wait to meet your family and create a little wonder together.
With love,
Ms. Goose

Our philosophy
Children learn best through play.
Not rushed. Not over-scheduled. Not constantly entertained.
We believe in slowing down, reading beautiful books, following children's curiosity, and creating spaces where imagination can flourish.
Each carefully curated experience invites children to build upon the week's story through exploration, creativity, conversation, and play.
Because play isn't just something children enjoy. It's how they learn. It's how they grow.
- Time to wonder.
- Time to build.
- Time to imagine.
- Time to ask questions.
- Time to get messy.
- Time to feel deeply loved and fully seen.
Did you know?
The earliest years matter most.
90% of a child's brain development happens before age five.
Play strengthens the neural pathways responsible for language, emotional regulation, problem solving, and social skills.
Children learn best through hands-on experiences, movement, and meaningful relationships.
Unstructured play helps build creativity, independence, and confidence.
Adults ask, “What did you learn today?” At Silly Goose, we ask, “What did you discover?”
The most important learning of early childhood has always happened through wonder.
