Jackie Harris (Director)

Kids Creations Art Studio is run by Jackie Harris, mother of two. Jackie studied Art at Kenton College in Newcastle-upon-Tyne, England. She believes art is a great way to improve a child's self-esteem by letting them be themselves. She feels that the best tool a child can learn with is their own hands. She enjoys getting kids to use their imagination and help them create kid masterpieces. Her love of her children and art led her to create a fun, family-orientated art studio: Kids Creations!

Sanjeev Rajput (Director)

Sanj has always been a teacher at heart and loves sharing his knowledge and skills with others. Sanj has two kids of his own, but over his career, he has worked with children from the ages of four to fifteen.

Kate Cartmell

Kate is an occasional teacher with the Waterloo school board and specializes in Art, English and Literacy.

Creating art encourages children to be adventurous in a safe environment, allowing them to ask questions and to experiment while trying to find those answers for themselves. Kate believes that creativity is an asset that needs to be encouraged and nurtured, and that the creation and study of art is the ideal way to accomplish this.
