Is This You?
Are you a super busy mum who is feeling overwhelmed? Do you have worries about the balance between work and home life? Do you sometimes lack confidence about parenting and feel guilty and worried about your children?
Perhaps you are already doing everything you can to use the right parenting approaches, but they don’t always work and this can leave you feeling de-skilled, guilty and worrying about how they may impact your children and your relationship with them long-term.
I support professional working mothers in creating balance in their lives and great relationships with their children, through coaching, mentoring and training, so that you live guilt-free, conflict-free and thrive together.
You may be wondering if it’s possible to get from a place of self-doubt, to one of flourishing happily as a family. Yes of course it is! And it is possible to make this happen in a way that works best for you.
Together we create a safe and trusting space for you to develop a unique parenting road map that’s bespoke for you and your family, taking account of your lifestyle and resources. We work together to get to where you want to go, one step at a time, in partnership, gathering insights, tools and skills along the way.
Do you:
Raise your voice and parent in ways that you don’t always feel comfortable with because your children don’t listen or respect you?
Feel really competent at work but really deskilled at home?
Catastrophise about who your children might grow up to be and about their relationship with you and your family?
You really are not alone and you don’t have to be perfect, just ‘good enough’!

Some self-help strategies
1. Be patient and understanding.
Children are still learning and growing, and they will make mistakes.
2. Set clear expectations and boundaries.
Children need to know what is expected of them.
3. Be consistent with discipline.
This will help children learn what is acceptable behaviour.
4. Spend time with your children.
This is the best way to build a strong relationship with them.
5. Be a role model.
Children learn by watching the adults in their lives.
6. Be positive and encouraging.
This will help children feel good about themselves.
Let’s Talk
Specialised guidance and support
Whilst parenting tips can sometimes offer a little insight, they can be hard to put into practise, and on their own are just not enough. You need personalised, parenting specific coaching and mentoring, tailored to your unique circumstances.
And that’s where I come in.
If you recognise yourself in what I’ve said, let’s talk. Together, we can explore how to approach parenting in a way that works for you and your family, a way that leads to guilt-free, good enough parenting, by creating a path that you design and implement, in a supportive coaching partnership.
