Reasons You Should Hire a Parent Coach
Clarity and expansive perspectives.
It's so easy to get stuck in patterns that don't serves us and plod along yearning for things to change but too exhausted to get onto a path that would serve you.
Time
You spend so much of your lives with your children living with you it makes sense to optimise that time. If parenting is causing you grief then your life is causing your grief.
Confidence and alignment with your authentic self
Parenting is such a great opportunity to assess your values and what really matters to you because you get to cultivate and curate the lifestyle that you want and the values you want to impart to your children.
De-shaming experience.
There can be so much shame in admitting that you are struggling in parenting. Working with a parent coach can be a powerful experience in self acceptance.
Stress reduction
A parenting coach can offer strategies for reducing parental stress and burnout. I use breathwork and somatic strategies to help clients find nimbleness in their nervous systems.
Behaviour management
As a Parent coach I help parents in develop effective strategies for managing their children's behaviour, that don’t disempower the child because, newsflash… disempowered children struggle to behave as they try to get their needs for power met. Children need boundaries but they need help from sturdy leaders (i.e. you) to guide them to be successful in meeting those boundaries
Co- parent Communication-
When parents come to coaching sessions together it can be a powerful experience where the whole family grows together. It can also be a powerful experience for the couple as they learn to appreciate each other and find common ground in parenting styles.
Inner trust
When I work with clients inner trust is the big aim. If the parent trusts themselves. Trusts that they can get back on track that they can repair then anything is possible
9. Objective perspective
A parenting coach can provide an objective perspective on parenting challenges, helping mums and dads to see different possibilities and approaches and reframe behaviour in light of child development, the nervous system and brain science.
10. Bespoke parenting support
There is no one size fits all approach here. Parent Coaching is Bespoke support for who you are for who your kids are.
11. Better communication:
I work with clients on Non Violent Communication Skills Communication in the family helps everything to flow better but most of us have been modelled high conflict communication
13. Conflict resolution and prevention
A parenting coach can help parents navigate conflicts and do the preventative work to stop so many conflicts happening in the first place, teaching parents how to identify all the different needs in the family
13. Managing the Mental load
We were never meant to parent alone. It makes sense if you are finding parenting alone or in the nuclear family lonely. A parent coach can help you make sense of your priorities and simplify your life to lessen the mental load.
14. Living Intentionally According to Your Values
Everything gets easier when you live according to your values. It’s a great deal easier to set boundaries and live a fulfilling life if you root all of your decisions in the values that are most important to you.
