Have you ever started your parenting journey with an idea of how you would raise your children, the wonderful things you would teach them and how your children would behave?

When I first started teaching, this was exactly my thoughts for my classroom and the kids in it, but I quickly realised that it was a team effort between the kids and myself on how we journey through the year.  That’s because every child is different and the one we’ve imagined in our heads might be very different from the one that’s in front of us.  Each child has their own unique personality and ideas about their life, so no matter how many great parenting ideas we have, each child will respond differently.

Raising happy and resilient kids can sometimes be hard, but the good news is that you’re not alone!

As Child Development Expert and Self Love Coach, I help you transform your parenting challenges into strategies that bring harmony and growth between yourselves and your children.

As well as a decade of knowledge and experience in behaviour management, child development, social and emotional learning and teaching strategies, I take a holistic approach to our coaching together by starting with YOU first.  What you need to get your energy up, what you want to get some zest back into your life and to fill that love tank of yours.  Because how can we love others when we are empty of that love ourselves?  Sometimes looking after ourselves is the best way we can look after someone else wholeheartedly.

As Brene Brown writes in her parenting manifesto:

I want you to engage with the world from a place of worthiness. You will learn that you are worthy of love, belonging, and joy every time you see me practice self-compassion and embrace my own imperfections…

As every family situation is unique and different, based on my years of experience, I am able to offer alternative perspectives and to co create strategies with you to shift behaviours within your family dynamics and provide tried and tested tools and methods to achieve the parenting goals that you WANT.

I am so passionate about helping you that in addition to having ten plus years of experience, I have also spent thousands of hours in research on the best ways to help each of ‘MY KIDS’ that have come into MY CLASSROOMS.  Outside of the classroom, hundreds of hours of my time has been spent with parents to overcome challenges and create parental approaches that create happy, positive children that results in creating a good family dynamic but helps your child grow to be a valued part of society beyond their childhood years.
