Vanessa Kahlon is a trailblazing entrepreneur, educator, and child advocate dedicated to strengthening families and transforming learning environments for unique learners. She is the Founder and Executive Director of Kahlon Family Services (KFS) and the KFS School, a K-8 program in the San Francisco Bay Area designed to support children through holistic, movement-based education. The school’s innovative use of movement desks reflects Vanessa’s belief in the powerful connection between mind and body in learning.

Her work extends beyond the classroom through impactful programs such as YEAS Yoga, which helps children build body awareness and self-regulation, and her 3R Method: Redo, Rewind & Repair, a social-emotional learning curriculum offered in both English and Spanish. Adopted district-wide in San Bernardino for Tier 3 families, the program combines parent workshops and school consultations, with data showing improved family happiness, stronger boundaries, and higher academic performance.

Vanessa is the author of How To Do Parenting With Confidence, Parenting With An Open Heart, and Shut Up And Parent, providing practical tools for everyday parenting challenges. She also hosts “Parenting with Vanessa Kahlon,” a weekly radio segment on The Drive 95.5, reaching families across Napa and Sonoma.

Her work has been featured on CBS’s This Is SF, Forbes, Bloomberg, and SF Weekly, which named her among the Top 5 Women Transforming Family Support and Unique Learners’ Education in California.
