How homeschool support works

You stay the teacher. Your kids come to me for the rest.

People sometimes call this "homeschool for hire," and here's what it really means with me: you're still homeschooling. You choose the direction; on set days you drop your kids at my home and I teach — reading, copywork, math, and one hands-on extra — in a rhythm they'll recognize from my lesson plans. A few families share the day, so it feels like a tiny, cozy schoolhouse.

Core Mornings2–3 mornings a week · the daily anchors: reading, writing, math
A "Mrs. A Day"one full day a week · science, art, nature, poetry — the fun stuff you never get to
Customa season, a specific subject, or siblings together — just ask

Everything I do fits alongside your homeschool, not instead of it. You get a note at pickup so you always know what we covered.

Good questions

Details

Where does this happen?

At my home in Vancouver, WA — families come to me, and I share the exact address once we've connected. An easy drive from anywhere in Clark County (Camas, Washougal, Ridgefield, Battle Ground, La Center).

What ages?

Kindergarten through about 5th grade is my sweet spot. Reading, writing, and math are where I do my best work.

Is homeschool support legal? Who's the teacher of record?

You are. In Washington the parent remains the homeschooler of record — I don't replace that, I strengthen it. I teach, you stay in charge, and you always know exactly what we did (I leave notes every time).

What's your background?

A bachelor's in elementary education, years of teaching my own children and other families' kids, and a whole lot of patience. I'm happy to share references and complete a background check on request.

How do we start?

Send the inquiry below. I'll reply within two business days, we'll have a quick call, and if it's a fit we'll pick days and you'll get the address.
