Are you looking for homeschooling information that I haven't covered yet on this website? Do you have questions, comments or suggestions? I'd love to hear from you!

Make sure you sign up for my newsletter so you don't miss out on new information! Signing up means you won't miss out on new additions on the site if you forget to check back. (I know homeschoolers are BUSY!) Don't worry about getting "spammed" if you sign up with me, I won't be filling your inbox and I don't share my addresses with anyone.

Thanks for taking the time submit your homeschool questions and comments.

If you don't hear back from me, check your junk mail folder and make sure I'm whitelisted, then resubmit.

About Me

Hi! Glad you stopped by. My name is Jill. I am a homeschooling mother of two - yes, just two - and a certified teacher who taught in the public schools for six years. My oldest child attended public school for just over two years and my youngest attended for almost three months. This experience has provided a unique perspective on education. I’ve seen homeschooling and public schooling from several different vantage points.

You might say being a teacher made it easier for me to start my homeschooling. I would say it isn’t EASY for anyone. Sure, understanding the education “buzz words” and technical language was helpful, but I still had to make a plan for MY children. Parents who are not trained educators are “free” to make decisions based on what is best for their children rather than constantly second guessing decisions because it doesn’t line up with the training they received.

I am blessed to live in an area with several wonderful homeschool support groups and plenty of veteran homeschoolers. These wonderful women are more than willing to share their wisdom and experience with others (including me.) :-) I am also blessed to have two wonderful sisters-in-law who are homeschooling in another state. I love sharing my discoveries, new information and experience with them. When I do, they inevitably tell me to "Write that down!" So here I am writing it down, for them AND for you. I hope that you find the homeschooling information and encouragement you are looking for!
