As a traditional birth worker and mother of two, I know that mothering is an extension of the postpartum journey shaping not only our children, but the entire family. In our communities, survival often takes precedence, yet the most transformative learning happens at home, not in school.

Public, standardized education often presents a whitewashed, demonized, rigid version of our history along with a style of learning that doesn’t align with how children naturally absorb knowledge. Growing up in this system, I saw firsthand how dedicated teachers, under-resourced and underpaid, are often asked to do the work of an entire community. I noticed the significant gaps so to address them I chose to homeschool and world-school my own children and currently work as a teacher at a preschool while pursuing my degree in (w)holistic early childhood education. My intention is to create systems that aid in providing solutions to this area of life.

Modern educational systems often groom children to become employees in a linear structure, but the reality is that we exist in a rapidly changing world. While job stability and automation are real concerns, essential human-centered skills like agriculture, homemaking, craftsmanship, and food preparation remain timeless. My resources connect children to nature, practical life skills, and life-preserving practices, helping them grow into capable, self-reliant adults with emotional intelligence, spiritual grounding, and the freedom to expand their unique passions into stable & reliable entrepreneurial pursuits.

The Roots & Wings Preschool Collection is thoughtfully designed for Black and Afro-diasporic families, homeschooling and world-schooling communities, and parents seeking a holistic approach from the very start.
