Homeschooling Services for Families
No matter whether you enthusiastically chose homeschooling or had it thrust upon you, challenges will crop up along the way, and your challenges will be as unique as your family is. I believe that solutions to homeschooling challenges should be unique too—tailored to fit you and your family—as personalized as the education you seek for each individual child. That is why I get to know you, your homeschooling needs, and goals before crafting an action plan specifically for your situation.

Helping hundreds of homeschoolers and counting . . .
Before my personal consultation, I felt like I was drifting in a sea of concepts that I wanted to implement but couldn’t quite grasp onto. It wasn’t until talking with Vida that I was able to establish what I wanted and needed for our homeschool and get a schedule in place that works for my family! This is an invaluable resource for anyone just starting out or already in the game! Thanks Vida!!!

The first step really is the hardest! And like any other journey in life, homeschooling is easier when you set out on a smooth path from the very beginning.
I can build a comprehensive, personalized plan to start you on the right foot that includes resources for legal compliance, curriculum guidance, a structured deschooling process if needed, and any other resources your individual situation calls for.
When I was homeschooled in the 80s, the problem was not enough curriculum choices. Now, we are awash in an unending sea of possibilities!
Step away from the overwhelm of Google and let an expert guide you in selecting a curriculum that is the perfect fit for your child’s needs in each subject. This is perfect for those just starting out or for correcting course when your current curriculum just not working.
One of the biggest benefits of homeschooling is a deeply personalized education. Don’t miss the opportunity to take full advantage of the resources out there!
Sustaining enthusiasm is one of the biggest challenges you will face as a homeschooler—yours and your child’s. I’ve been there!
Having a trusted mentor to turn to for some pro-advice with handling a resistant child or a tricky question—or if you just need a dose of understanding and inspiration—can make all the difference.
I am available for coaching on an as-needed basis, or we can schedule a series of regular check-ins to keep you running strong.
Want a little more hands-on help with homeschooling? As a published author and self-proclaimed grammar nerd, I bring enthusiasm and real-world experience to my one-on-one tutoring in language arts.
And did I mention that I write history books for homeschoolers? So, I tutor in history and geography as well.
Interested in group classes? I also teach writing through one of my favorite homeschool companies, Brave Writer. Come visit me there and check out my class schedule!
This is the one! The step that most people skip. And the step I say is the most important. Why? Because if you aren’t clear on your vision for your homeschool journey, your goals for your children’s education, and your priorities, FOMO will get you.
Don’t fall victim to overscheduling, overwhelm, and uncertainty because of every “fun” activity or shiny new resource that comes along. I can help you uncover your “why” and create your personalized mission plan that will guide your homeschool journey. I guarantee you will return to this document time and again to keep you grounded and on course.
If you’ve done any research on homeschooling, you’ve heard about styles: Classical, Charlotte Mason, Eclectic, Unschooling, Montessori . . . The list goes on! You might even have a favorite in mind. Want to know two truths about them?
One: Almost no one fits one style perfectly. Most people are a blend, and that blend changes over time.
Two: A style is a tool—just like your curriculum or your pencil sharpener. Yet, most people let it rule their homeschool rather than the other way around.
I can help you determine which homeschooling style or blend of styles is right for your family and learn to wield that knowledge to your advantage.
Ah, the eternal question—how to get it all done?
Block scheduling, loop scheduling, routine, or journaling? Digital planner, paper planner, both? How do you teach multiple children at the same time? What about activities, electives, me-time, or just getting the dishes done?
Rest assured, there is a way. I can help you craft a time-organization method where everything fits. And you will know exactly how to get back on track when life inevitably happens.
Taming the beast of homeschool clutter can be a daily chore—from art supplies, to books, to all those papers. And how about those digital files? Resource downloads, compliance papers, those two million cool homeschool sites you’ve bookmarked.

Did you know that you’ve already been homeschooling since the day your child was born? I believe parents are not just the first teachers but the best ones. And I can help you harness that natural ability to unlock the educational potential of your child’s crucial early years.
As a curriculum writer and developer, I specialize in teaching parents the real pre-reading and pre-math skills on which to build a solid academic foundation. (Hint: They’re not always what you think.) As your personal homeschool concierge, I can show you which early learning activities to focus on and which are just fluff.
Not homeschooling yet, but have questions? Already in the thick of it and struggling? Perhaps, you have a child with special needs. Or maybe your life’s dream is to live on a boat sailing the world.
No matter where you’re at or where you’d like to be, I can help you integrate homeschooling into your lifestyle so that it works, for you and your children. Schedule an exploratory consultation today.
