Hi, I'm,Ā Malia Phelps Waller

I help homeschool moms of uniquely wired kids (ADHD, autistic, sensory, dyslexic, 2e) create calmer, more connected homeschool days using gentle, playful, brain-friendly strategies.

If traditional homeschool methods aren’t working for your child, you’re not doing anything wrong.


You just need support designed for their brain.Ā
