Keynote Speaker

Jenny Bales

Homeschool mom and founder of Heart of a Mother Homeschool Consulting.

Jenny Bales is a devoted wife of 25 years, a homeschooling mom of 4 remarkably unique children ages 11-22, and the founder of Heart of a Mother Homeschool Consulting. She homeschooled her oldest two students from K-12 and currently homeschools her 6th and 8th grade boys — 17 years of homeschooling and counting!

Her homeschool philosophy is "whatever works," but her heart is in literature-based learning and a Charlotte Mason approach. When she’s not homeschooling or talking about homeschooling, you'll find her driving her two youngest boys around town to their activities or hosting retreats, book clubs, and moms’ nights in her local community!

Jenny loves to reflect on all aspects of homeschooling through the lens of our incredible Catholic faith!

You want the best for your children's education—a foundation rooted in faith and values that incorporate quality academics.

But in the busyness of daily life, teaching even the basics can often feel like an uphill battle.

We understand. We've been there, too.

That is why the theme of the 2024 CHECH Conference is all about reigniting wonder and awe in your home education journey.

Join us as we explore how to integrate your unique family culture into everyday learning to engage the whole family and watch them thrive.
