Wholehearted Academy is a nature-aligned, relationship-rich alternative to traditional education — built for families who believe in doing school differently.

Homeschool Reimagined

We're not just a school. We're a movement.

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.

There’s nothing like this in our city. The curriculum, the community, the care — it’s all intentional. We finally feel like we’re not doing this alone.

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
