Discover the transformational power of Parent Coaching
Information is powerful, but personalized coaching and support ensure long-term success. I believe that you are already doing the best you can and that you are and always will be the best bet for your child.
My coaching will focus on helping you root into your intuition, find your answers, connect deeply with your children and uncover even better ways of being with your family and yourself.
My Services: Parent Coaching and the 5 Step Program
- Discuss, process and explore your parenting issues in a safe, nurturing and confidential space
- Become empowered to develop strategies to overcome the challenges and gain confidence in your parenting
- Be more aware of the effect of your mindset and thoughts, see how they may be negatively impacting you and your parenting and learn how to harness the power of your thoughts and intentions
- Where relevant, you will learn simple tools for you and your child to help them break the life limiting cycle of anxiety
- Be accountable to a coach to help you achieve the changes you want to make.
I will share invaluable resources with you as part of our coaching. My partnership with Great Parenting Simplified brings additional benefits for you as you will have access to informational videos, expert interviews and reading material. I’m also resourced to provide you with invaluable deep ‘listening partnership’ sessions with other parents from my parent community.
Change is a process and it is definitely a marathon not a sprint, simple small steps forward can be incredibly powerful. I see a key part of my role in your marathon is to help you to keep up the momentum and be accountable for making the changes that you want.
Parents report that they leave my sessions feeling heard, validated, understood and empowered to move forward.
This work is guaranteed to bring more peace and calm in your life and more grace to the inevitable challenging moments.

The Great Parenting Simplified 5 Step Program
The Great Parenting Simplified 5 step program has been developed by my mentor and founder of Great Parenting Simplified, the parenting expert, Jacqueline Green.
The program is called Great Parenting Simplified because the work of sifting through information has been done for you. We’ve taken proven science along with reliable techniques and condensed them down to a few basic and coherent steps. This means less of your time is spent sifting through information, and more on applying the principles and enjoying your precious family.
The steps incorporate evidence based information from the latest child developmental psychology.
I send you videos and information each week to discuss during our coaching sessions. As you work through the steps I remain connected with you in between sessions via email to ensure you are fully supported.
The 5 steps are represented in the image below.I am very conscious of information overload and don’t believe it is effective to give you more ‘parenting tools’ without exploring the barriers that may prevent you from implementing them effectively, that is why Mindset is always the first step in the program.Step 3, Alignment, refers to Attachment and the Invisible Thread which I see as the foundation of the family, without which the family relationships remain on an unstable footing.
What you put your intention and attention on grows! The program is designed to be covered over a block of 12 coaching sessions.By choosing to commit to 12 coaching sessions you will become more immersed in the invaluable material of the 5 steps and it will give us more time to deep dive into the mindset work, both of which will optimise your life giving you a fantastic return on your investment.
If you wish to choose the block of 6 coaching sessions,we can still cover part of the program however we will not have sufficient time to effectively cover all 5 steps. In this scenario we will only cover 3 steps, Steps 3-5.
The Work of Byron Katie
Every time you do The Work,you are becoming enlightened to who and what you are, the true nature of being. To question what you believe is an amazing gift to give yourself, and you can have it all the days of your life. The answers are always inside you, just waiting to be heard
- Byron Katie
I’ve been practising and facilitating The Work of Byron Katie for a few years now.
The Work has brought me more sanity, more clarity and more realisations than anything I’ve ever done in my life. It has also brought me closer to having unconditional love and acceptance for others both in my home and work life.
The Work of Byron Katie is what has kept me incredibly sane as a parent. Being able to see and track my thoughts. To realise that my children are not the cause of my stress but my thinking about my children is the cause of my stress has enabled me to loosen the shackles of habits and patterns of action and reaction between us.
I’m not a perfect parent, not by any stretch of the imagination, but I am a happier one when I am doing The Work than when I’m not.
I offer you the opportunity to be facilitated in The Work in our coaching sessions and we dive into this more in Step 1 of the 5 step parent program.
Many clients find doing The Work incredibly helpful in reducing their stress and their reactivity as well as deepening their connection with their children and/or other family members.
