I'm a naturally optimistic person, who is really empathetic.  I'm also a parent of three children and I wondered...

"What is happening with my children?"

"Why aren’t I getting any cooperation?"

"What am I doing wrong?" 

I quickly realised that it wasn't only me asking these questions, lots of my clients had these thoughts too... and there's a chance you are as well...  two of our three children have learning differences, so I have lived experience of understanding what its like to live with neurodiverse and neurotypical children.

The act of parenting is a huge passion of mine, especially because I am parenting two neurodiverse kids and one neurotypical...  when I trained to become a parent coach I learnt about understanding children from inside their world and how this is paramount to the connection between the parent and child.   

It fills me with so much joy to be able to offer support to parents of the world.  Especially those who are also parenting children with learning differences, I believe that parenting is a journey that desperately lacks support and I promise to support you to become the most compassionate parent you can be and to help you find the joy in it!  

"My biggest goal is to enable cultural change in the world in how people value children and value parenting. I want to see parenting viewed as a valued skill."

I truly believe the world needs less hate and more compassion and as parents we can model these values and nurture them in our children.

My children listen to me now, because I listen to them. They co-operate with me now because I co-operate with them. They are able to authentically be themselves, because I’m not trying to make them be anything other than who they truly are.
