Efflorescence by definition means ‘Developing and unfolding, as if coming into a flower: Blossoming.’

I’m Hailey, an early childhood educator and certified holistic health coach. My background is in child development, education, and holistic health. I received my BA in Child Development from California State University, Long Beach (CSULB) in 2019, my MA in Education from CSULB in 2021, and my Integrative Nutrition Health Coaching Certification from the Institute for Integrative Nutrition in 2022. I have always had a passion for working with people, children and families, and for health + wellness. Being a preschool teacher since 2018 has given me the opportunity to understand the importance of instilling healthy, mindful habits in children from the beginning, as these habits are likely to remain with children as they progress through their journey of life. There are many systems surrounding children that affect their development, with the most immediate and impactful being the school and home environment. As a holistic health coach, I work directly with preschools, as well as parents and families, to make positive changes in terms of diet and lifestyle, which can significantly impact children's overall health and well-being. It all starts with us as the adults; mothers, fathers, caregivers, aspiring parents, or not. We have the power to plant the seeds of healthy, mindful habits regarding nutrition and lifestyle in our future generations.

It wasn’t until I began my health journey in my early 20’s that I truly felt as though I began to grow or ‘blossom’ into the person that I was put on this earth to be. Since childhood, I’ve felt frustrated not finding long-lasting solutions to the various health issues I was experiencing; severe acne, hormonal imbalances, gut imbalances, stress, depression, the list goes on. At rock bottom, my intuition was telling me I needed to get to the root cause of these symptoms to see real, sustained change. By turning to holistic methods of healing and undoing years of habits that weren’t serving me and my health- I began to see a real shift which brought clarity about my life’s purpose and my fullest potential.

This is the driving force behind creating Efflorescence Holistic Health. I want to help people heal holistically, looking at the whole picture- mental, emotional, physical, and spiritual health, and the impact nutrition has on these dimensions of health. Children, adults of all age ranges, aspiring parents, young parents, and everything in between- it’s never too late to change your health story. I want to help you take the power back in your health story and go within to find answers to your solutions. This will allow you to show up as the best version of yourself, for you and for the people around you.
