About Clare Brown
Clare Brown is the founder of Homeschool of 1, a site dedicated to sharing free and premium printables for kids in preschool through 8th grade.
Her homeschooling journey began in England, where she started teaching her son, Freddie, at home. After moving to Florida, Clare continued homeschooling and began creating her own printable activities to make lessons more engaging and adaptable. In 2021, she launched Homeschool of 1, which now reaches thousands of families, teachers, and homeschoolers every day.
Clare manages a community of over 40,000 subscribers and offers more than 1,000 free printables, worksheets, and activities designed to make learning fun, hands-on, and accessible.

Over the years, Clare has expanded Homeschool of 1 into a full educational brand, complete with a Teachers Pay Teachers store, Amazon Author Page, and membership platform serving parents and teachers worldwide.
