Who Is Nefertiti 

I’m a dedicated mother of two sons with over 20 years of experience in early childhood education. I have worked as an infant and toddler teacher, served as an assistant director at an early childhood center, and successfully operated my own home-based early childhood daycare and learning center for three years. Currently, I provide personalized homeschooling for infants and toddlers in the comfort of their homes, along with coaching parents.

Throughout my journey, I have discovered that parenting becomes less stressful and more fulfilling when caregivers embrace consistency, understanding, and practical structure. My passion for educating children has evolved into a mission to empower parents.

I founded The Independent Parents to empower parents with the tools and confidence to create a nurturing, structured, and stress-free home environment. My mission is to help parents better understand their little ones, build consistency, and enjoy the parenting journey with ease. Through personalized coaching and proven strategies, I guide parents in fostering independence, emotional connection, and a peaceful family dynamic.
