Updated 8th July 2021
Coming up:
1) I have a grandbaby due to be born in July or early August. When that happens, I plan to spend two weeks focussed on helping with the baby and toddler sibling, though likely not until he/she is two weeks old. Any bookings accepted in the meantime for that period may therefore be subject to delays (don't know when baby will be born until it happens!). I will, however, do my absolute best not to leave anyone in the lurch.
2) In September, I will be travelling to speak at the Firelight Foundation national homeschooling conferences.
Generally, I'm continuing to experience high demand. I will respond to all messages as soon as I'm able, usually within 2 business days (except when my office is closed or as noted above). To save time, please read the following and follow the links where applicable.

- For those wanting help with exemptions, my guide pack is a great place to start! It's available to purchase online HERE, for instant download.
- For those who would like an exemption application review, please download the pdf document with everything you need to know HERE. When you send me your completed application, I will book your review as soon as possible. Currently that is typically in the week following. Eg if you send me an application to review on Weds, I will complete it in the following Mon-Fri, unless I have space earlier.
- For those who would like me to write an application, the information to get started is HERE. When you return the completed documents to me, I will queue up your application. My policy is to book this service in the order in which I have received required information and payment.
- For those who would like a phone consult, I have a several slots available each week which fill fast. Please use the form below to contact me and I will advise available times. Please include your phone number.
- If you have been asked for more information about an application by the Ministry, you have up to 4 weeks from the date of their request to respond before your application lapses. After you contact me I will ask you to send me your original application and all additional correspondence with the Ministry so far; once I review it I can explain the next steps. Meanwhile you may benefit from purchasing and reading my guide if you have not previously, to help you better understand application requirements.
