About Me
Hi friend—I’m so glad you’re here.
I’m Jenna, the voice behind Creative Homeschoolers—where glitter meets grace, chaos meets coffee, and learning looks a little different (and way more fun) than the standard workbook route.
I’m a homeschooling mom of many, former glue-stick hoarder turned curriculum curator, and someone who believes that education doesn’t have to look like a classroom to be meaningful. I’ve been homeschooling for almost 10 years, which means I’ve had my fair share of meltdowns over math lessons, spontaneous nature walks instead of history class, and those beautiful breakthrough moments when it all just clicks.
But let’s rewind a bit…
I hold a Bachelor’s degree in Biblical Studies and a Master of Arts in Positive Psychology and Life Coaching. Yep—I’m a total nerd for human flourishing, growth mindset, and using the science of well-being to help moms and kids thrive, not just survive.
I started my first blog (The Peaceful Nest) back in 2017 when I was deep in the parenting trenches. Since then, I’ve written for online publications like Moms Who Think and 24/7 Tempo, worked behind the scenes on SEO, analytics, and content calendars, and learned how to juggle writing, editing, homeschooling, and reheating the same cup of coffee…three times.
Why I Started Creative Homeschoolers
Let’s be real—homeschooling can feel overwhelming, especially when Pinterest tells you every learning space needs fairy lights and an alphabet wall hand-painted in watercolor. (Spoiler alert: It doesn’t.)
I created this space for moms like you—creative, intentional, beautifully imperfect women who care deeply about their children’s growth and want to make learning joyful. Whether you’re just getting started or knee-deep in lesson plans and cereal crumbs, Creative Homeschoolers is here to remind you that you are doing enough—and that homeschooling can be peaceful, playful, and completely tailored to your family’s rhythm.
Around here, we talk about real-life homeschooling, not the Instagram-filtered version. We swap ideas, laugh through the hard days, and explore everything from nature journaling to unit studies, positive parenting to budget-friendly curriculum hacks.
What You’ll Find Here
- Homeschool encouragement for the days you’re wondering if you’re doing it right (you are)
- Creative learning ideas that go beyond worksheets and flashcards
- Gentle parenting tools rooted in Positive Psychology and connection
- Frugal family resources to help you homeschool without breaking the bank
- Honest stories from a fellow mom who’s been in the thick of it too
If you’re looking for a blog that celebrates both messy buns and Montessori moments, curriculum wins and craft fails, you’re in the right place.
So grab your coffee (even if it’s cold), pull up a chair, and stay awhile. I’m so glad to walk this homeschool journey with you.
Welcome to the Creative Homeschoolers community. Let’s make magic out of the everyday.
