Emma and Beth

We are Emma and Beth, two homeschooling moms and longtime friends who have loved raising our kids together in our homeschool community for the past 15 years. Beth is the author of Find Your Homeschool Vibe: How to Homeschool Without Losing Your Mind  and Emma was the creator and leader of a large homeschool group in California for 13 years. 

We are here to tell you that YOU can homeschool your kids. YOU can have a peaceful relationship with them (most of the time). YOU can help your children to be successful and well-educated. YOU can give them the individual attention that they need and can tailor their education to fit them.

Have a child with special needs? You can do it. Work full-time? You can do it. Raising a grandchild? You can do it. Your child struggled in public school? You can do it.

Peaceful homeschooling: You can do it, and it can change your family’s life.
