Aunt Claire

Aunt Claire started Storytime with Aunt Claire because she missed her nieces and nephews. Simple as that. They were far away, storytime was something she had always done together with the little ones in her life, and she wanted a way to keep showing up for them even across the miles. What started as a love letter to a handful of kids has since grown into a channel that reaches nearly 4,000 families - and she still reads every story like she's curled up on the couch with someone she loves.

By day, she's a software engineer and app developer at Bright Bear Digital. She handles the production, editing, narration, and creative direction of the Storytime videos - all the lighting and tech is the magic of Uncle E!

Her whole family has called her "Bear" since she was a baby (a nickname her father gave her and never took back), so it felt completely natural that her best Storytime friend would be a cuddly, friendly bear. That's how Bo came into the picture.

She lives in North Carolina with Uncle E, Bo the Bear, Lucy the Lamb, and their three dogs: Big Chief Rocky, Tonto, and Dandelion. She loves her whole family, her sweet Storytime friends (like you!) her dogs, books, and her cozy home in Tall Tree Hollow more than anything in the whole wide world!
