I created WildRoots Escapes because I know firsthand what it’s like to raise children without a “village.” As a single parent to two daughters — now grown and in their twenties — and now with my partner and our youngest daughter, I’ve experienced how easily life can feel isolating, especially when you’re home educating.

The truth is, our children deserve a strong sense of community. They deserve to grow up surrounded by people who know them, encourage them, and share in their adventures. And so do we.

I didn’t have that built-in support network when my older two were little — but I’ve realised we can create it for ourselves. WildRoots Escapes is about bringing like-minded families together to travel, learn, and grow alongside each other, so no one has to feel they’re doing it all alone.

It’s about shared meals and campfires, days spent exploring new places, and children learning side-by-side in living, breathing classrooms of forest, mountain, or coastline. It’s about showing our kids the world, not just through textbooks, but through real experiences, real cultures, and real connections.

If you’ve ever wished for a community to help nurture and guide your children — this is it. We’re building it together.

WildRoots was born from a desire to travel slowly, live consciously, and raise rooted children through shared adventures. We’re not about packaged holidays — we’re about meaning, memory, and magic.
