Hi, Iโ€™m Ria!

Wife, nurse, homeschool mama of three, and the heart behind Two Plus One.

By day, Iโ€™m guiding my kids through math with glitter and science with water balloons. By afternoon, I trade my play clothes for scrubs and head to the hospital. Somewhere in between, Iโ€™m dreaming up our next family adventure, chasing the littles with a camera, and wondering how many cups of coffee is too many.

This space was born from a deep love of play-based learning, the freedom of homeschooling, and the joy of making memories as a familyโ€”whether at home or halfway across the world.

I believe kids learn best when they feel safe, seen, and free to exploreโ€”whether that's through sensory play in the backyard, a read-aloud snuggled on the couch, or collecting seashells in a new city.

Two Plus One is a peek into our real-life rhythmโ€”playful, imperfect, and full of heart. Iโ€™m so glad youโ€™re here.
