WELCOME
I'm Dara. I'm so happy you are here. From 2023-2024, I used this blog is a place to share the highs and lows of educating my neurodivergent children at home, as I learned alongside them and from them every step of the way.
I created Heartspace Homeschool as the resource I wish existed when I started unschooling.
By sharing examples of what self-directed learning looks like in our home, and offering my reflections on our low demand unschooling life, I hope to empower families who are following a similar path to trust themselves, trust their children, and grow in their understanding that learning will happen without formal lessons or curricula, and the person who learns the most along the way might just be you. My oldest is PDA autistic and we also have anxiety, PTSD, Non-24, and 2e in the family mix. In our home, education happens through life, all day, every day, as the we let the children follow their interests in a Reggio-inspired approach to learning.
