Read MoreAsalamu alaykum ladies, A couple of days ago I asked if you would like an insight into how my first week of homeschooling went a few years ago, and many of you were interested, so here it is. So, my daughter did not go to kindergarten/nursery and I loved having her at home with me; […]

A few days ago, I posted a question on my Instagram, asking if you struggle with self-confidence as a homeschool Mom. The result was a staggering 75% YES, and in all honesty, I wasn’t surprised. Why?
