Welcome to Wholehearted Academy. 

Rooted in nature and guided by curiosity, our homeschool enrichment program blends farm and forest experiences with the BC curriculum to create meaningful learning opportunities. Through hands-on group classes, outdoor exploration, and community meetups, children connect with both the natural world and each other while progressing in their academic journey.

We support independent homeschool families by offering guidance, structure, and enrichment while honoring the flexibility homeschooling allows. Through personalized tutoring, small group classes, and farm–forest enrichment programs, we help children strengthen core skills, connect with peers, and explore nature in meaningful, curiosity-driven ways.

Rooted in Wonder. Guided by Heart.

 

At Wholehearted Academy, we believe children thrive when they feel seen, heard, and deeply understood. We've created a learning environment where curiosity is celebrated, emotional intelligence is nurtured, and meaningful connection is at the heart of it all. Through play-based learning and outdoor exploration, children engage with the world in a way that fosters wonder and deep engagement with nature. This isn’t education reformed — it’s education reborn. And it starts with the heart.

Here’s How to Get Started

For families who want their children to thrive in a community of like-hearted learners, our in-person cohort experience offers a beautiful blend of academic fundamentals and outdoor exploration — rooted in BC’s curriculum and led by our highly educated teaching duo.

 

Here’s what makes this experience unique:

    • Small, intentional group of just 8–12 children

    • Nature-rich, play-based, and child-led learning

    • Fundamentals of the BC curriculum woven into every day

    • Social-emotional growth, peer connection, and hands-on learning

    • Freedom to explore — with structure to thrive

This is more than part-time learning environment. It’s a grounded, heart-centered alternative for families who want to step outside the system without sacrificing quality or community.

A Message from Carly, Our Founder

I created Wholehearted Academy because I believe children deserve more than compliance. They deserve an education that feels like home — one that honors their inner voice, encourages their curiosity, and lets them grow into exactly who they’re meant to be.

We’re not just teaching children — we’re raising future thinkers, creators, and kind leaders. And we’d be honored to walk this path with your family.

— Carly Pinchin, Founder of Wholehearted Academy

Limited Spots. Lifelong Impact.

Wholehearted Academy is intentionally small by design—because depth matters.

Here, we honor the heart of your child and the soul of your family, creating space for curiosity, connection, and growth.
