Find the connection you crave to cultivate the homeschool that is in your heart.

 

Hi, I'm Cait. I am a school psychologist-turned-unexpected homeschooler and mom to three wonderfully and wildly unique kiddos (ages: almost 15, 13, and 11). 

One thing I've learned in our 9+ (!!!) years of homeschooling is that homeschooling shouldn't look anything like the public school of your past. 

I created NBL to be a safe space for creative parents and educators to authentically connect, share ideas, and support each other as they raise their wildly and wonderfully unique children and teens. 

I'd love for you to step outside of that ol' proverbial box and join the fun! 

 

 As seen on

Never Board Learning brings you the creative resources, inspiration, and genuine connection you need to cultivate a homeschool atmosphere of joyful curiosity, playfulness, and lifelong learning. We're here to support you as you raise your wonderfully and wildly unique children and teens.

Maybe you've always wanted to homeschool.

 

Or, maybe you landed here unexpectedly.

(Hi. It's me.)

 

Either way, you're here because school wasn't a good fit for your unique kiddo.

 

Homeschooling doesn't need to look *anything* like the public school of your past.

 

Don't be afraid to step outside of the box.

 

 (Honestly? It's more fun out here!)

Maybe you always planned to homeschool.

 

Or, maybe you landed here unexpectedly.

(Hi. It's me.)

 

Homeschooling shouldn't look anything like school.

 

Don't be afraid to step outside of the box.

 

 

 

What's inside Never Board Learning

All of the content below is available in your pocket thanks to our NBL app (available on both iOS and android).

NBL Community

 

NBL has a vibrant community forum with the most authentic, creative, and supportive people around. 

These are real-life homeschoolers who want to support you as you raise your wildly unique children and teens.

Our community is diverse with members from all over the world. NBL has new homeschoolers, homeschool veterans, and second-generation homeschoolers, all united with one goal: to cultivate a family atmosphere of playfulness, curiosity, and lifelong learning.

Many of our members wake up and start their day in Never Board Learning and leave feeling connected and inspired.

This is not a Facebook group. There are no ads, no algorithms, no drama, and no social media hangover.

Monthly Themed Playbooks (eBooks)

 

Our members love our NBL Playbooks! These ebooks keep your children and teens busy and learning all month long.

Each monthly Playbook has a theme and includes: 

  • Printable resources related to the theme
  • Game recs, book lists, and educational videos related to the theme
  • Oodles of extension activities across many academic subject areas 

Playbooks are designed to be fun. They are not meant to be a "to-do" list, but rather they are a collection of activities, resources, and rabbit trails. Pick and choose the rabbit trails that work for your unique family and forget the rest!

All past NBL Playbooks are available in the NBL Resource Library.
