About Me

Hello there! I am Johanna Chick, just a real-life mom sharing my experiences for other like-minded mamas. My goal with this blog is that my ideas and tips will inspire you along your way to raising strong, smart, confident, and loving humans.

I am passionate about creating an environment for my children that promotes independence and child-led learning. Creating fun little activities for them and setting up materials for them to “discover” brings me joy. If that resonates with you, welcome to the family!

My husband (and greatest supporter), Anthony, and I have 2 beautiful daughters, J is 4 years old and W is 1 1/2. We all recently moved back to NH after living in Okinawa, Japan while Anthony was serving in the US Air Force. As a family, we enjoy spending time outdoors, family bike rides, music, and game nights. We have a spoiled pet bunny and a crazy 2-year-old pup!

As a stay-at-home mom, I am blessed to be able to work from home, running my blogs and Etsy store where I sell homemade children’s items and downloadable products for other moms. As the girls are both under school age, it’s understandable that they would be home with me, but as they grow, we will continue homeschooling and providing resources for other families doing the same. My husband and I were both homeschooled as well, and I’m grateful that God has given us the experience and opportunity to make this decision for our family.
