If you're feeling unsure, overwhelmed, or just want a clearer path forward—I’d love to help. Let’s chat and make your homeschool shine.

Why I started my business…

Nestwise at Home began because of the conversations I kept having with homeschooling families—so many parents were doing their absolute best, but still feeling unsure, overwhelmed, or anxious when it came to teaching literacy. That lack of confidence often crept into the rest of their homeschool journey. I started Nestwise to offer calm, expert support that helps families feel grounded, capable, and encouraged—because every child deserves a strong start, and every parent deserves to feel equipped.

I offer literacy support for homeschooling parents that’s grounded in structured literacy and shaped by the rhythms of home life.

All services are tailored to fit your child and your homeschool needs. If you have specific concerns, goals, or worries, we’ll talk them through together—and I’ll adjust the support to make sure it works for you.

Literacy sets the tone for joyful learning

Literacy is more than decoding words on a page—it’s how children make sense of their world, express their thoughts, and connect with others. Watching a child grow in confidence as they discover the power of reading and writing is one of the quiet joys of home education. At Nestwise, I believe literacy isn’t just important—it’s deeply meaningful, and worth approaching with care, patience, and a little wonder.

Whether you're just getting started or supporting a struggling learner, we’ll find a way forward that fits your family.
