Janie Reade

I know that…
To feel like a good parent, I must prioritize my connection with my child.
Even when my child has a lot going on. Especially if my child is navigating the world with sensory differences, or having behavioral issues, or is developmentally delayed.

I know that…
Observing my child is key.
We all deserve to feel like good parents.
My behaviors CAN influence my child’s behaviors.
Harnessing my natural strengths leads to ease around sticky issues.

I’m a parent of three now-adult young men. One has a lifelong severe neurodevelopmental disorder. I wrote about my unusual mother-child relationship in a small book called More of Everything: How I became a better parent to my child with extreme special needs by lifting my emotional burdens. Read it to see if you relate to my insights along my journey (available on Amazon in ebook and paperback.) Get in touch with me if you want someone with my experiences and my outlook on life to help you be the best parent you can be.

I bring the analysis and observation of a scientist and the empathy and humor of a mom of three incredibly different boys to my coaching sessions. Conversing with people about the details of their life energizes me.

I know that…
Working with people who are trying hard, and just want to feel like good parents, is the right path for me.

Janie Reade is a pen name I use to keep my family’s privacy around my vulnerable child’s diagnosis. As your coach, you will know me, and I will keep your family’s information private.
