About you

This is the ideal job for a homeschool parent who is deeply passionate about empowering underresourced families to curate their children’s education, who has an active social media presence and is looking for flexible work, while expanding access to homeschooling.

A background in education, parenting, child psychology and development is a plus.

We are more interested in finding someone who is passionate and knowledgable about homeschooling, and excited to learn and grow as a social media expert and community leader, than someone who has an extensive resumé.

You don't have to be a homeschool parent, but it is our vast preference.
