waldorf-800x800Buy-Now-Button

You Don’t Have to Figure it Out Alone.

Whether you are just starting to homeschool, or always wanted to, imagine this for a second…

You feel confident that you are doing it right. The first steps are clear and you know exactly where to find the resources and support needed to be successful. There’s no second guessing. No confusion. No lack of focus.
Without any floundering, your homeschooling falls into place with ease, assurance and joy.

Knowing you had your homeschool & lessons in place, you’d start enjoying…

  • The kind of joyful and stress-free days to enable deep connection with your child.
  • Assurance that your child is getting exactly what they need to thrive in their surroundings.
  • Free-flowing inspiration and creativity because your confidence and understanding in the basics allows you to bring more of yourself into your days.
  • A feeling of being supported by a mentor that has been down your path and can help you avoid pitfalls while providing shortcuts.

“Our task is to educate the human being in such a way that he or she can bring to expression in the right way that which is living in the whole human being, and on the other side that which puts him/her into the world in the right way.”

By Rudolf Steiner

5 Amazing Things You’ll Receive from the
Waldorf Homeschool Handbook

 

Mother and child

1.Deeper connection with your child and you being fully present.

2.Ever experience that total “being” with your child and giving 100%? How can we maintain that joyful experience when we are frazzled, overwhelmed and worried? Give your child and yourself the gift of “presence”.

3.Confidence in your soul that you are on the right path for your family.

4.This is a huge part of educating your preschool/kindy aged child. The outside cultural pressures surround you and you start second-guessing. Understanding, knowledge and a bit of belief are the keys.

5.Peace of mind that you understand the fundamentals.

Getting the foundational pieces in place is the homeschoolikng of playful learning. Taking it step-by-step and digesting only what you need when you need it is much better than trying to devour the entire meal
