Esther is a UK-based mindfulness teacher, deschooling coach and mother of three unschooled children. She is the author of the recently-published The Parent's Handbook to Unschooling Yourself and she hosts the bi-weekly podcast, The Unschool Space, in which she explores the joys and challenges of unschooling with other unschooling parents. Esther works with parents who want to unravel the beliefs and conditioning that hold them back from embracing life in partnership with their children. 

Melissa lives in Aotearoa (New Zealand), is Māori, AuDHD and the mama of two unschooled neurodivergent children. Her experience with understanding and meeting their needs deepened her commitment to helping others on a similar path.

She is especially passionate about working with neurodivergent parents and Indigenous families on their unschooling journeys.
