Holistic Homeschoolers
About Us
Who we are
Holistic Homeschoolers is inspired by the idea that nature, nurture, and education are all part of raising successful young men and women. As we continue on our homeschooling journey it is our hope that we can help parents become empowered and confident educators!
We are based in the East Bay region of the San Francisco Bay Area.
Group events, programs and resources are organized by H² volunteers as a community effort to connect and provide support to Muslim homeschoolers in the East Bay.
Please note: Our events and programs are only open to H² members because we want to know who is attending our meetings due to safety and privacy concerns.
There are no fees to join our homeschool support group, and there is no charge to attend our events or participate in our programs. If you'd like to become an EBMH member, please submit a membership form.
What we do
Current Programs
Themed homeschool discussions with guest speakers:
These discussions are an opportunity for us to improve and widen our skills and knowledge as home educators. Topics we’ve covered in the past include a workshop on learning/teaching styles, how to be an organized homeschooler and how to plan your homeschool year, among others.
Holistic Connections (sisters-only):
Holistic Connections meetings are check-in sessions for homeschooling mothers. This is a highly interactive space and everyone is encouraged to get to know one another. We hope this space can help mothers connect and maybe even spark new friendships, insha’Allah.
Burooj Library Gatherings:
Gatherings at Burooj Library, a unique and local library where our kids can participate in activities and enjoy read-alouds of books that are well-vetted and written by Muslims.
Hike and Park Meetups:
Our hike and park gatherings provide an opportunity for kids and moms to come together to enjoy each other's company and nature in various locations around the bay area. Insh'Allah these consistent gatherings will help us create long lasting friendships.
We are an active homeschool support group, and we meet regularly to provide social support for homeschooling mothers and their families.
