Parenting can be one of the most rewarding and challenging experiences in our life. There is no one book or website that provides all the answers, and sometimes our past experiences have not prepared us for the challenges of being a parent.
I have over 20 years experiences working with families and children and am a trained parent educator in programs such as Circle of Security, 123 Magic and Emotion Coaching, Tuning in to Kids, Triple P and others. I have supported families through times of change, unexpected stress and just 'doing life'.
One-to-One Coaching
I can assess your family's needs to provide you with a plan that will help develop a strong parent/child bond and provide strategies to manage challenging behaviours. My goal is to support your family to be a calm, happy, environment for everyone.
Parenting Programs
I am available to facilitate parent programs for a group of five or more participants. If you or your school/organisation would like to book me to facilitate one of the following courses, please contact me.
