Is your heart emotionally at rest?

Support and refreshment for the devoted, yet tired homeschooler

from an attachment-based perspective

We support you as you guide your children.

While the days are often overflowing with tasks and you’re engaged in the wild and dynamic vocation of caring, teaching and guiding your children at home, it can be easy to forget to extend to yourself the same quality of grace that the attachment-based developmental approach suggests you offer to them. 

At The HOMESCHOOLER’s Hearth, we help you discover and draw from your deepest wellspring of inner strength and we take an attachment-informed approach for the adults in the room too. We provide compassionate, nonjudgmental support by way of coaching conversations, courses and online resources. Our coaching incorporates many of the same principles of attachment and relational development that help ease children’s hearts and help them reach their greatest potential. Yes, the same quality of transformation and inner growth that comes from emotional rest are available to you too. In fact, Nature’s principles of attachment are the essential factors not only in how children develop, but also as the cornerstones of transformational and sustainable care for adults.

By applying attachment-based and relational principles to adult inner development, your children will sense something different radiating from you. Many clients report that through attachment-informed coaching they homeschool with greater confidence and a deeper sense of meaning, they bounce back from challenges more swiftly and have deeper relationships with others in their lives, including themselves and their children.  

The particular quality of warmth required to homeschool well becomes readily available to our children when we tend to our own inner and outer attachment dynamics and regularly experience this warmth within ourselves.

When it comes to refreshment and care for a homeschooler’s own heart, we are here to help you…

  • decide whether it is best to continue educating at home or to begin homeschooling in the first place

  • find clarity regarding which homeschooling curriculum and educational approach is the right fit for you and your family

  • set up each day for success, emotionally as well as academically, no matter what curriculum you select

  • resolve fears and vulnerabilities that can hijack the joy of educating at home

  • eliminate the “shoulds” that lead to unnatural homeschooling schedules and rhythms

  • overcome the inclination to compare yourself to other parents

  • attune to your needs and the needs of your children with more compassion and grace

  • confront insecurities that result in behaviour-focused and outcome-based tactics that can compromise children’s natural development and your peace of mind

  • refine your life balance and create restorative time to increase energy and health for your body, mind and soul

  • feel understood, uplifted and encouraged and find renewed meaning in the day-to-day vocation of homeschooling

Nature doesn’t just want our children whole, free and reaching their full potential… it wants the grown-ups they lean on to be all we are meant to be too.

Our homeschooler and personal coaching services are not counselling or therapy. Professional coaching anchored in relational attachment education is a fresh approach and combines pure coaching methodology with attachment-based consulting.

Our services are designed to help you come to your own emotional rest for more meaningful days, more restorative nights and a more fruitful homeschool experience.
