The History of Habitat Schoolhouse
Family Focused Curriculum
Welcome to Habitat Schoolhouse! Every homeschooling journey begins with a brave decision: to step away from the conventional and follow your heart toward what’s best for your family. That single leap of faith is the foundation of our story, too.
In 2023 we met with a simple truth: "When you know, you know." My husband, Vince, and I knew instantly that we were meant for each other. We got engaged just five months after we met and married two months later! We thank God every day for bringing us together.
We're a family that loves to get our hands dirty—whether it's gardening with our chickens, hiking mountains, or exploring the ocean. We are truly blessed with our children, our life together, and this company that we get to pour our passion and creativity into.
How Habitat Began
Looking at this photo from 2018 of our very first print run (with a very pregnant me!) brings back so many memories. Habitat Schoolhouse was born a month before our son, Henry! It didn’t start from a grand business plan; it started quietly at my kitchen table with intentional lessons I created for our then two-year-old daughter.
With a background in education I simply wanted to create lessons for her that were rooted in nature and kindness. I started sharing them with other moms, and this little project of love began to grow into something I never imagined.
It’s amazing to see how that initial goal of creating wholsome resources is still the heart of everything we do as a family. We’re so proud to continue creating materials that help parents and spark a genuine love of learning in children.
The Future of Habitat Schoolhouse
Today, our life doesn’t look "normal"—and we wouldn’t have it any other way. We get to work together from a little office in our garden, right next to the chicken coop. It’s from here that we get to live our dream: creating and sharing heartfelt homeschool resources with families like yours all over the world.
Over the past seven years, our library of curriculum and unit studies has grown, and we know how overwhelming it can be to search for the right resources. That’s why we’re excitedly working towards bringing everything together in one place with the Habitat Schoolhouse Subscription. Our goal is to give you a peaceful place you can always count on, making your homeschool planning simpler and joyful.
Thank you for being on this journey with us. Every family that joins our community reminds us why we started in the first place.
Sincerely,
The Diorio Family
