She has created materials for the California PASS Program, Kaplan K-12, Pearson, Thomson, and others.

In addition to consulting and writing for some of the biggest names in education, Candace has also consulted for a variety of entertainment, toy, and craft companies, including the National Center for Family Literacy (NCFL), WordWorld (on PBS Kids), the American Specialty Toy Retailing Association (ASTRA), Corolle, and Toobeez.

Online, Candace is an active member of the Mom Community. On Naturally Educational, she shares educational crafts and the latest ideas about education.  Naturally Educational was recently featured in Ed, the magazine of the Harvard Graduate School of Education.  She is the co-editor of Mamanista.com, a popular parenting product review blog and has blogged professionally for LeapFrog’s community as the Baby and Toddler Expert and BabyCenter’s parenting blog.

While Candace’s B.A. from Yale University and M.Ed. from the Harvard Graduate School of Education prepared her for a career in education, she’s found that the best preparation for parenting is on the job training. She enjoys being able to spend her day with her children and volunteer locally, while contributing financially to her household, growing as a professional, and participating in the online mom community.
