OUR STORY

As a parent like you, we have a passion for kids!

Enriching Kidz is here to help you enrich, empower and keep your kids safe!  We help you by equipping your kids with life skills they can use for a lifetime, with classes close to home and at convenient times.

There isn’t always time as a parent to teach them everything they need to know to get them ready for adulthood.

Enriching Kidz's mission is to help parents along the way, to educate your children to lead engaging, educated and self-confident lives! From teaching them how to stay home alone safe, to how to care for their younger siblings, and navigating through social exclusions and friendship, and so much more, we’ve got your back.

Amy Klebanow Marks BSN,RN

Amy is the founder of Enriching Kidz, which she started in 1993.  She started her career as an RN working in cardiac care. The best part of her job was teaching patients and families the skills needed to live a healthier lifestyle in her role as a Cardiac Rehab nurse.  While a nurse, she started teaching CPR and First Aid classes to area nursing students, factory workers, dental offices, and more which led to her love of teaching.  

The class Better Baby Sitters was born when a co-worker asked her to create a babysitting class for her Girl Scout troop. She did so with the help of others, and the scouts loved the class! Amy was excited to be able to incorporate her CPR and First Aid knowlege in the class along with her knowledge of childhood growth and development, empowerment and marketing skills.  Amy took this class to other area schools and scout troops and then started creating other classes such as Kidz Home Alone, Empowering Girls with Confidence, a Manners class, a class teaching problem-solving and decision-making, and so many others.  She has added other classes to her offerings, such as Pottery Wheel 101, Stitch and Sew Kidz, and Stress-Less Kidz. 

In 2016, Amy wanted to help kids learn these skills from all over the country, so she started offering some of her classes online using Zoom. She LOVES creating and teaching classes that teaches kids life skills that will last a lifetime! She is married to her very supportive husband Robert, and the mom to three wonderful sons, Alex, daughter- in-law Lindsay, Jack and Eli. Amy's interests include traveling, the arts, hiking, reading, and hanging out with friends and family.
