Sara Shields

Hey! My name is Sara. I’m a wife, mother, and homeschooler of three. We’ve been learning together at home since 2014. Homeschooling was always the path I envisioned for our family, and I feel incredibly grateful that we’ve had the freedom to follow it.

In 2020, our circle of community closed. It changed while the world was changing along with it. We had to make a shift as a family. We decided to move to North County San Diego in late 2020 to be closer to family. While this was a blessing in some ways, it changed so much for us in terms of what we had built within the homeschool world around us. We had to shift from what we knew and begin to grow new connections. Things grew in ways we hadn’t imagined...and then grew even bigger. We poured our hearts and souls into supporting others and now have this community we call Homeschool Collective.

In 2025, our family relocated to West Phoenix, Arizona, and I brought with me a strong desire to continue growing what we had built in California. Something that was never just about us, but about all families seeking meaningful support.

My hope and dream is to extend this beautifully supportive and thriving group of humans across all states. That vision from 2020 has become Homeschool Collective: a place where families can come together, find resources, form real friendships, and know they are not alone on this journey.

Welcome—we’re so glad you’re here. I look forward to meeting you and your family.
