Get the Information You Need to Homeschool Your Child with Confidence
(Without having to download another freebie)
​You know that homeschooling is the right decision for you and your child. You know that the traditional schooling system is not serving your child’s needs. So why is it SO hard to jump in and start homeschooling?
For a lot of parents, the problem is they feel they lack the foundational homeschooling basics.
Maybe you’ve made the decision to homeschool but are scared to actually take those next steps.
​
Maybe you’ve read all the free downloads and resources you can find on homeschooling but feel overwhelmed with all the different options and choices you need to make.
​
Maybe you’re nervous about trying to balance more than one child at different grade levels.
​
Maybe you’ve started homeschooling and feel like you’re becoming the awful Mrs. Thorne from the 3rd grade (and you hated her).
​
Or maybe you’re really enjoying the beginning stages of homeschooling your child but wish you had someone to bounce ideas off of.
Any of these sound familiar?
Whether you’re slowly moving into your homeschooling journey or have already jumped in head first…
Establishing strong foundations in your homeschooling journey is the key to creating an environment that will help your child learn and allow you to become more than a teacher, but their guide to independent learning.
Homeschooling is like riding a bike...
As a career-long educator across grade levels, a preschool owner, and a transition-to-homeschooling coach, I’ve seen first hand how homeschooling can create overwhelm and extra stress in a home - even for parents who know it’s right for their child.
I’ve seen parents make the decision that homeschooling is best for their child and their family, but because they don’t know where to start, they end up delaying the change, and their child spends more time in the traditional classroom than their parents had hoped.
For the parents who are scared to start homeschooling and don’t feel confident or smart enough to be their child’s teacher, I often ask them this question:
Do you remember riding a bike as a kid?
Well, I sure do!
I was around 4 years old and finally felt comfortable enough to let my dad take the training wheels off my bike. My parents took me to the big open parking lot of Cashell Elementary School to give it a go!
I got on my bike and remember feeling the energy and excitement running through me. Here we go! I was flying down the middle of the parking lot, free like a bird! I was doing it!!
And then I crashed. Hard.
I was crying. I had cut my leg and blood was everywhere. I was devastated that I had fallen down and afraid to ride anymore. My mom and dad helped me up, cleaned my leg, and made me get back on that bike to try again.
What I learned that day, and what you may have learned while riding a bike too, is that it’s okay to start something without being an expert. It’s enough to believe in yourself and to go for it! It’s even okay to fall down. When you fall, the key is to get back up, give it another shot, and use the support around you to accomplish what you want.
The same can be said for your homeschooling journey.

You Might Be Wondering...
How is the content being taught?
You will gain access to all of the modules within 48 hours of your purchase. Once "in," you will be able to access the modules in your portal any time you are ready to dive into learning.
​
How do I get access to the BONUS ChatGPT resource and Ask Me Anything session?
Since this is my first time running this program, learning about your experience is my highest priority. In order to receive access to these bonus opportunities, I ask that you provide a testimonial of your time in the program. You will receive more information on this process throughout the program!
​
Will you be covering ‘unschooling’ in the content?
No, this will not be covered. I believe in using what you know to get started. For some of you, that means you may begin by replicating the idea of school in your home. You’ll grow as you go and that increased confidence will enable you to tweak, pivot and make changes to find the best learning environment for you and your child when you’re ready. We’ll take one step at a time.
​
What if I’m not quite sure if homeschooling is right for me?
I understand that homeschooling is a big decision for parents to make. If you aren’t sure that this is the best transition for your family, check out Homeschooling 101, a 60 minute 1:1 intensive where we’ll create a personalized “Cliff Notes” plan to help you determine if homeschooling is the best option for your family.

​
How does the email or text support work?
You will receive my personal email address or phone number (whichever is your preferred method of communication) so you can contact me directly with any questions about homeschooling, the information we covered, additional resources, and how to move forward. I will respond to all emails and texts within 24 business hours.
Without a Foundation, There Can’t Be Structure
If you’ve read this far, then you’re serious about homeschooling your child as soon as possible.
​
You can continue to use all the free resources out there and search through Facebook groups only to come up with information that isn’t useful, doesn’t relate to your situation, and is maybe just wrong.
Or, you can work side by-side with me to build your homeschooling foundations so you feel confident guiding your child through their education.
now picture this...
You’ve just finished up your first full year of homeschooling! You are confident in your curriculum you are teaching, the lesson plans you have created, and love watching your child participate in sports and arts around the community!
All of this can happen if you decide to build a strong foundation and get the support you deserve to have on your homeschooling journey!
Remember that the $317 New Year's Price is only available until February 29th before the price goes up!
Imagine for a moment it's one year from today.
Your child is still in traditional schooling. You have tried to start homeschooling but you feel confused, stressed, and overwhelmed with everything that goes into the process.
Remember, without a foundation, you can’t build a structure that's going to last on top of it.
