Welcome to our Introduction to Homeschooling!
We’re Nicki Farrell and Vicci Oliver, Homeschooling, Unschooling, Wild Schooling mamas and directors of Wildlings Forest School.
We were exactly where you were 5 years ago. Questioning whether the school system was the best place for our children (and our family). Doubting ourselves, wondering if we were going to ‘mess up’ our children’s education and wondering how we were going to juggle homeschooling with work, partners and self care.
But here we are LOVING our lifestyles and our children are positively thriving. The only thing we wish we could change, was having a course like this when we first started. We didn’t know where to start, who to ask or what to do to get started. So we figured we’d create what we wish we wanted then.
So here it is, everything we’ve learnt over the past 5 years, everything you need to know to gain the confidence to start your family’s homeschool journey, condensed into an easy to watch webinar.
In this webinar, you will find the answers to your most burning Homeschooling questions. Questions such as:
