nice to meet you!

Hey Sis, I'm Starlita

I’m a proud Afro-Filipina, wife, and homeschooling mama of three delightful & creative kiddos. I’m also a creative, introverted-extrovert, and multi-hyphenate type of gal. You can think of me as your Mama Bestie from Baltimore, tea enthusiast, and lover all things music, food, and travel!

On the professional side of things, I am a Certified Babywearing Consultant, writer, teacher, and homeschool coach. I’m trained as a birth and postpartum doula and lactation peer educator. I am also a Postpartum Preeclampsia survivor and awareness advocate.

Starlita patiently and throughly answered a ton of my homeschool questions. She provided me with resources and websites that gave me the courage to begin my homeschool journey. Most importantly, she encouraged me take the pressure off of myself and my daughter. We went into our homeschool journey excited and anticipating amazing outcomes!

I had the privilege of learning from Starlita on all things babywearing and I got that and so much more. She is so knowledgeable in helping you get the best comfort fit for you and your baby. She was very patient with me as I was completely clueless on how to use a ring sling and while my 9 week old cried and cried during our session. We worked through it and I can wear my ring sling like a pro now!

Not only did I get amazing tips on how to properly use my baby carriers, but I also got sweet encouragement from a fellow mama. She is unbelievably kind and her passion to help mamas just breathes out of her. I am so grateful for the opportunity to have met with her.
