Sharing My Real Life Experience

About the Author

Hi, I'm Iva — mom, hobby herbalist, and the voice behind Toddler in Action. I hold a Master's in Economics and worked as a tax advisor. I walked away from my corporate career to stay home with my child — and that one decision changed everything: I've started a blog, homeschooled, co-founded Livingston Global Academy with my husband, and learned to heal my kid naturally when medication wasn't an option. I share our first-hand experience as we go — the real life - messy, meaningful, and everything in between.
