Hello, my name is Nives (pronounced Kneev-Eh-Ss) and I’ve recently traded the corporate world for a life of homemaking and homeschooling my preschool-aged children using a mostly Charlotte Mason approach. Join us in our homeschooling and homemaking journey as I talk about living a content, simple, God-filled life. ❤️

WHY I Homeschool My Children | My Top 4 Reasons
Just discovered your channel and I’m excited to watch more of your videos! I’m planning my daughter’s JK year (I’m also in Canada!) and wondering if you have any advice/plans for French? Thanks so much :)
Thank you for such a sweet comment! Where abouts are you? So French wise, I’ve been lazy 😅 but I grew up in French and have done all my schooling in French so my plan is to stop being lazy and do full immersion in French a few days a week. On a side note, I’ve learned French that way at 8 when I arrived in Canada and a year later I had zero accent. Now I understand it would be trickier if it was a foreign language to me, in that case I think I’d probably rely on exposing them to a fluent speaker (I’d also be fine with some screen time in French personally) in addition to the lessons I’d do with them. Sorry for the long response, it’s an important question!
@@NivesScott thanks so much for your response! That makes a lot of sense. I think that’s a great idea. I’m in Ottawa! And you? It’s wild how similar the plan I had made for our year is to what you seem to be doing with your girls (so many of the same books and resources!). I feel like we’re kindred spirits! :)
@@siennaleecoughlin oh wow, I’m here too!
@@NivesScott you’re in Ottawa too? No way! Would you want to connect by any chance? 🥰
@@siennaleecoughlin yes I am! I’d love that! Email me (I have email in my bio description) and we can exchange socials that way!
I’m re-listening to Modern Miss Mason right now and also slowly reading For the Children’s Sake and The Mission of Motherhood. I loved Teaching from Rest and plan to read it again this fall.
Such beautiful recommendations. I’ve actually never read the mission of motherhood or listened to modern Miss Mason. I’ll add them to my list! ❤
All my favorites as well. I read the Mission of Motherhood when I was 23 and had a new baby and it completely changed the trajectory of my life! I read For the Children's Sake and Teaching from Rest every year. :)
@@JoyForney I have just been told about this book by someone else and they said the very same thing, that it changed how they approach motherhood. Well then it must be a must read for me too!
My daughter is 3.5 and we are moving towards some home preschooling. We just completed reading the first 2 books in the little house series. That gave her an introduction to the concept of school and learning. That lead us to some role playing and pretending w dolls. We have a slate that i plan to give her for more props and i hunting for a tin pail for lunch. This may sound silly but i want to make learning just as fun as playing so its not like a job or chore for either of us. Hopefully i can get more structure as we move towards winter. Thank you for sharing and inspiring.❤
That is so sweet. That’s exactly what I would be doing at that age too. You’re already well ahead of the curve reading little house books to her, and then integrating the play as part of it is so natural to her. You’ve got this mama! ❤
@@NivesScott Thank you for the encouragement!
Really enjoyed this talk as I clean. I have Mother Culture in my shelf and can't wait to get to it. I can totally relate to reading at a slower pace. Blessings mama! Hope you are having a lovely day! 🙏☺️💗💗
Thank you so much. Let me know what you think of it, I love talking about motherhood books I’m reading! ❤
What is the song playing in the background? It’s familiar but I can’t put my finger on it.
It’s ode to Joy! ❤
@@NivesScott thanks!
Curious to know how you prepare yourself as a mother for a new year of homeschooling?
Devastated and betrayed by my best friend. I need to learn to trust others and to make friends. My beautiful 3.5 yr old loves all people of all ages an i have to heal in order to get to this place.
I am so sorry to hear this. I pray you find people who are good to you and that you can be good to and that you can trust again. ❤️
❤@@NivesScott
Just found tbis creater and excited to hear what she has to say. My daughter is 3.5 this month and we are approaching the time to begin homeschool. Intendinting to start this winter as she will be 4 in feb and people keep asking if she is going to prek. I have some learing disabilities and im appregensive to go down tbis path but i know in my heart that it is the right thing. She just started sleeping through the night so lets just say im burned out and not ready for what comes next. Thank you so much for sharing❤
Careful home training free from useless waste, is the foundation of homeschooling. You made the right choice. Mainstream education is only interested in producing employees. No room for creativity and sifting out occurs if a youngster has special needs. Home schooling can resolve the problems of literacy and numeracy.. Private schooling is based on fee paying academic achievements and micromanagement. and public schooling is for those who can't afford private schools. Both are only good at Institutionalisation.
Your testimony touched my heart! Thank you for being vulnerable and sharing!
Thank you for sharing! I never thought of this before. It'll have to be something i try if i ever homeschool
This was so helpful as I’m considering starting my own group- thank you!
That’s so exciting for you. Wishing you all the best, you can do it!
Your videos are great!
Thank you, I’m glad you like them!
FYI there are two more beautiful books in the tiny truths series. One is a book of Psalms and proverbs. The other is a devotional book for little ones. All three books are equally beautiful.
Thanks for this recommendation!
FYI, you might want to get rid of that Julia. Roth. Man book. She supports in. sessst, pdf files, child grape, etc. Yes, really!!
Can you share where you got that info? This is news to me.
@NivesScott on amazon review of her book about sex an reviewer shared how the person in the story had the best sex with their uncle. And she was like 11 or something.
Subscribed! ❤ I'm hoping to do Charlotte Mason with my kiddos! 😊
Thank you so much. I just saw your beautiful content and subscribed too!

Where did you get your math manipulatives and cards? Thanks for showing the read aloud books you are using! I got some great ideas!
Thank you, I'm so happy to hear! Here's the link to the math cubes: amzn.to/3YcFq4g
@@NivesScott Thank you!
Thank you! What useful information 🙂🤍✝️
GOD Bless ❤
Glad it was helpful!
Hi sweet friend! I loved seeing how you plan and prepare. Got so many ideas! 🙏☺️💖💖
Thank you so much! ❤
I really enjoyed sharing these resources with all of you! Are there any specific videos on planning for 2024-2025 homeschool year that you’re interested in? ❤
Thanks for the ideas. Thinking about getting aesops fables now
You’re welcome and go for it! So much ancient wisdom that gets easily assimilated by our kids as it’s in the form of short stories.
Really needed to hear that last part on patience, thank you. My almost 7yo daughter despises our Teacher Your Child lessons- I am pivoting with more Charlotte Mason style, using colors and stickers and chopping the lessons in half. But thank you- I feel like you gave me permission to ditch the book if we need to. On the upside, she is IN LOVE with chapter book read alouds🙌🏻
Oof we’ve all been there when it comes to lacking patience and I spoke from my personal experience. 😅 Yes the book definitely doesn’t work for everyone, so I can totally see the resistance in the sit down and power through kind of method for some children.i would have 100% ditched the book if it meant an easier time teaching her in a less formal way. You know your child best mama!
I wish I could like this more times. This was so grounding and beautiful. Looking forward to more calming content such as this. It gave me such a sense of peace and was exactly what I needed as a fellow mom.
This is such a sweet and uplifting comment, I’ll keep that in mind. thank you! ❤️
Greetings from Southern California! So glad I came across your channel-I also have two daughters 5 and 2 and we’ll be homeschooling (Kindergarten) starting this year. I too plan to use the Charlotte Mason method as a guide in our homeschooling journey. I’m looking forward to follow along your journey as we start ours 😊
It’s so nice to have you here! That’s awesome to hear you’re starting your journey this year, congratulations! I will definitely be sharing some more Charlotte Mason resources and “not back to school prep. ❤️
Really good tips. Привет из Канады!
Thank you! 🙏
thank you 🙏 ❤
I really loved listening to those things that bring you joy. I took love reading and praying with my little one. Thank you so much for sharing this! 🙏☺️💖💖
It’s so precious to do it with them isn’t it!
I’d love to know how you recharge your cup & feed your soul as a homeschooling mama ❤
This was a great video! Please do more like this!! Such an encouragement to see slow living in the suburbs! ❤
I’m so happy to hear you thought so. Thank you for the kind comment. ❤️
Great tips, I am currently using some of those techniques for my daughter
Thank you, how is she doing so far?
Hello Nives Scott hello anyway this is indeed very heartwarming and very wonderful and very beautiful and very adorable and this brings back such great memories of when I use to be a 90s kid and an early 2000s kid and I am a new subscriber as well:).
You’ve inspired me! Ready to start my journey 🥰
This is so lovely to hear. And congratulations on starting your journey! You can do this!
Great tips
Very nice 👍🥰
This is so inspirational! Getting outside and learning based on the season!
Thank you! It’s such a perfect time to do it when they’re little and we love it so much.
What great tips to teach reading. You sound like such a fun mom!
Thank you so much, I try 😅
Sounds like some great summer plans. We try to keep it simple and easier during the summers too. We have a kid who just finished kindergarten. Love to connect. Just subscribed. I also have a channel and would love to be friends. Looking forward to watching more of your videos.
Thank you for this lovely comment! We actually have a second year here in Canada, so she’s starting senior kindergarten in September. Yes let’s connect, I’ll subscribe to your channel too and I’m looking forward to going through your videos. .
@@NivesScott cool. I didn’t know that’s how Canada works. Thank you so much also!!
Not all provinces (think of states) throughout Canada do it this way, but the one I’m in has two years. But I’m honestly using this next year to get myself mentally ready and prepared to figure out our first year of formal education.
Hello. Cute vlog. Wonderful children. Good plants ❤❤❤
Thank you so much! ❤

This is very true and wise. Even in the country one has to be intentional about living life in a "disconnected" way and finding the joy of being present. I think comparison is what steals most people's joy and ability to just live and enjoy life as it is.
Absolutely! It’s a society-wide problem, wherever we find ourselves we can either sleep-walk through our life wishing for things to be something else or embrace what we find mundane. ❤
Just a little psa that the Hoarseness in a lot of the voiceover is due to laryngitis! I may have had to stop many times to cough too. 😅 How do you find contentment in your suburban life, what do you do to beautify your life?
I think in the past we lived with extended family much more. My grandparents lived with us when I was a kid for example (I'm 35). This gave balance to mothers. My parents help watch our son two days and we have a nanny at the house three days. I work from home as well but my job is pretty flexible. I don't start until after 930 and am typically finished with my work by 430. I stop up for lunch with my son and the nanny (who's awesome). I agree that being a mother has boosted my creativity and given me meaning that I could not conceive of prior. I feel blessed to have the balance I have at the moment. I'm curious what % of your household income you brought in. I'm bringing in just under half but we also get insurance through my job and max out or retirement and HSA contributions through my job. We could make it on my husband's income if we didn't have our high maintenance dogs (2 king Charles cavalier spaniels) and really lowered retirement contributions and health savings account contributions
First of, thank you for sharing such a thoughtful response! Absolutely regarding the extended family! Before we came to Canada my grandma was my caregiver when my mom returned to work, and as she got a job out of town, it meant I was on my grandparents farm 5 days a week and only saw my parents on weekends. and my aunts and uncles who were much younger than my mom also lived under her roof so i was well taken care of. That said i still missed my mom dearly and cried myself to sleep nearly every night. So in terms of finances, i was in a very similar situation to you. I brought in just under half, and health insurance (but I’m Canadian so a lot is public), was also under me as my husband is self employed, and a pension fund so i did forgo of a significant amount and benefits, zero doubt about that! But we are making it work, and i honestly couldn’t picture our life without this sacrifice, a life of not homeschooling my kids. I love that you have balance of family & work life, it’s so important, sounds like the dogs are more work than kids 😅!
Just had a conversation with my sister who has a 6 months baby girl and she got very defensive when I talk to her about staying at home and maybe not going back to work in September ( in Europe we get a lot of time to spend with babies after birth.) I think she is scared of asking her partner for financial support or maybe she knows she won’t get it. They live under the same root but are not married ( probably not sharing bank accounts or anything) I wish more men would understand how important it’s for mothers to be at home during newborn and toddler times. Thanks for sharing this
My heart goes out to the mothers who wish to stay at home with their babies but feel that they can’t, or they are unable to. It’s such a common longing that we often push aside and convince ourselves is not the way to go, or is an impossibility. Raising the next generation is THE most important work in my opinion, and unless both people in the couple think of it that way, leaving the work force to stay at home would be nearly impossible.
You're so inspiring! It's refreshing to hear how beautiful and important staying home with our kids is vs. the boss girl theme we're so used to hearing!
Thank you so much Fareena. Raising the next generation is the most important work!
Thank you for sharing - it's hard for women these days, you really are 'expected' to work full time, and mother, and cook and clean, and be a good wife... Exhausting.
Very true! I think it’s no wonder so many women often feel depleted, exhausted, torn left and right, and like a shell of a woman, doing many full time jobs at once.
Thanks for your video. I used to be an architect and now I’m a SAHM of 7 😅
Oh wow, I bet it makes your job as an architect look like a cake walk! But seriously, congratulations, it’s such a beautiful thing to be present with our kids!
Hello! Inspired stranger here! I’m an architect and trying to plan my future, thinking about how I’d make having a family work. Becoming an architect is such a huge life achievement, do you ever miss it? How were you able to make the transition to SAHM? :-)
@@sandrakolacz3654 hubby and I met at university so we both were architects which helps. We started our own practice shortly after registration and getting married so my transition from full time work to SAHM was slow. If you want to chat further my husband has a channel @heisesays and you can contact me through that
@@NivesScott honestly it’s the other way around 🤣 it’s a lot of work at home, but way less stressful.
@@sandrakolacz3654 hubby and I met at uni and is also an architect so that makes it much easier for us and it means I can jump in and help him if he is overloaded with work. The identity struggle to be ok with being a mum has been a lot and taken me a long time to adjust as becoming an architect is a very consuming pursuit. The more kids we have had the easier it has been. Having 3 kids was the hardest to balance but once #4 came along I gave up and started homeschooling 🤣 our kids are the best part of life and an investment in our future.
Loved listening to your video. It's very inspiring. Your giving your girls an amazing childhood.
You are so kind! ❤️
I loved listening to your story. So beautiful how God reached you in this season of life. As a former elementary teacher I can relate to feeling like there is no other way. But when I had my baby girl I just couldn't go back. And I believe it is the best decision we have made as parents. Thank you so much for sharing your story. 🙏☺️
Thank you so much for the support and encouragement. The best decision indeed! ❤
