Welcome to Homeschool Sunshine!

I’m Jessica, a homeschool mom who loves helping other homeschool moms find balance and joy on their homeschooling journey. You will find many resources here including my personal blog, resources, encouragement and freebies (coming soon!). If you’re looking for advice for your homeschool, or you need reassurance that you’re not alone in your homeschooling struggles – you’ve come to the right place!

I started Homeschool Sunshine to show other moms how easy homeschooling can be. I have been homeschooling since 2016 and have been a homeschool coach since 2020. (You can read more about my homeschool journey from public school teacher to homeschooling advocate here.)

I also offer personalized coaching services – tailored specifically to your needs. All coaching clients receive confidential support and encouragement. My specialties are helping families with early learners (ages 5-10), new homeschooling families and families who have switched from public school to homeschooling.

I recently changed my coaching format to email coaching, which allows you the freedom to reach out anytime, day or night, and gives me the freedom to respond with more personal support and guidance. See what others have to say …
