"We have made so much progress. I am eternally grateful."
"Thank you Jo for being there for our family. We felt like you were there for us in a truly caring way!"

Do you want to feel more confident as a parent?
To have stronger relationships with your children?
To experience less conflict and stress in your family?
It's never too late to change your story. If you are feeling stressed out, overwhelmed, and not sure what to do for the best you are not alone. But it can certainly feel like you are.
If you find yourself yearning for a better life for yourself and your family, I would love to have a conversation with you. Change can happen more quickly than you might think.
I am an experienced parenting coach with a 20 year career working with children and families.
I provide a complimentary initial call, with no strings attached, for you to discover more about the valuable support I can offer.
Don't delay as my capacity to take on new clients is limited.
I know what helps and what doesn't help...
You are under pressure and you want things to change quickly.
You need some short cuts to be able to cope with how overwhelmed you feel right now. You need a few quick wins.
You need to understand where things are going wrong so that you can start the process of putting them right in the long-term.
You want to feel confident that the changes that you make are evidence-based and fit with your values.
Why should you trust that parenting coaching can help?
I've been working with children and families for 20 years. I've worked with some very challenging children and I've supported families under huge pressure.
I use all my experience and knowledge to help you to figure out what will work for your individual family.
This is not a one size fits all approach, it's individualised support tailored to your family's needs.

I know how it feels, because I've been there too...
You had ideas about how you would be as a parent but you aren't anywhere close to where you want to be.
You feel overwhelmed by all the demands of your life so you are parenting in a reactive way and then feeling guilty.
You feel like everyday is a battle and you feel angry far too much of the time. You need it to change.
The children playing on the beach at the top of the page are mine. They are amazing and the absolute loves of my life but I’ll be honest with you, nothing in my life has every challenged me as much as being a parent has.
I went into it with confidence, after all I had cared for some really challenging children before I had my own. Surely looking after my own would be a breeze? Then my daughter arrived.
I couldn’t understand it, I knew all the theory but somehow I just couldn’t seem to get it right. Like a lot of high-achieving, driven people I felt out of control for the first time in my life. I didn’t like it. This tiny little person held power over me like no one ever had before. No one had ever been able to push my buttons like she did. I adored her but I felt like I was failing.
It was only after a lot of self-reflection that I realised that I needed to start really listening and parenting the child I had, rather than the one I expected. How I wish there had been a parenting coach around to help me through this process! There was nowhere to turn when I needed help.
