Hello! We are Sara & Ryan Sheehy, the creators of MathMum.com.
MathMum.com was designed to help share some of the things we struggled with or found helpful when trying to teach our three children mathematical concepts.
We believe mathematics is an essential skill, just like reading and writing, and we want our children to be well-equipped as they progress through school so that they aren’t left behind.
