JOYFUL PARENTING

Being a parent is one of the greatest blessings that life can give us, but it’s a great responsibility too. We never took any classes to be a good parent or how to do it right. But parenting is not about knowing all the answers or doing the right things all the time. As life will be full of joyful moments along with obstacles, challenges, mistakes, worries, and uncertainty. Parenting is about how we can learn as parents to become the better version of ourselves.

With an open mind to experiment, new approaches, and willingness to change, you can learn how to deal with frustrations and stresses in parenting. You can engage with your children in a way that makes you feel the joy and happiness of parenting, while building strong connections and positive relationships with your children based on mutual respect, love, trust, and understanding.

Parenting can be much easier if you know the right tools that work for you and your family. Your family is unique and what works for others may not work for you: I can help you in discovering both your and your children's strengths and abilities, empowering you to become the parent you wish to be and enabling you to better enjoy this important journey, make memories that you cherish, and reflect your own values and meanings in life.

What To Expect When Coaching With Me

As a mother of four successful adults (two sons and two daughters), I’ve been through all the phases from childhood to teens until adulthood. I understand the challenges you’re going through. Even though it may not feel like it, the years pass so fast but the joyful memories are what remains. Together, I can help you make every moment with your children memorable.

I’m passionate about working with parents: compassionate, positive, non-judgmental, and caring. I listen carefully to all your concerns. When you coach with me, you can guarantee that you have someone to talk to freely. With my personal and professional experience, I can help you deal with everyday challenges. We will unleash your creativity and strength, build your capacity, and open new and fresh possibilities for you and your family.

With my support and guidance, together we can tackle each challenge one at a time, step by step, to help you have the family interactions and dynamics you’ve always desired. As one of the moms I coached said: “I helped her go to bed every night feeling relieved that she was the best mom she can be for her kids.”

Professional Bio

I have a Bachelor’s Degree in Business Administration. I discovered my passion about children after becoming a mother and then working as a teacher for young children. I completed a higher diploma in Early Childhood Education. After 15 years of teaching, I became a school principal and obtained a Master’s Degree in Education. Throughout my career and interactions with parents, I empowered many parents to resolve the challenges they face with their children. They started to enjoy special moments of their lives and their children’s lives. Helping parents became my passion and mission in life.

Joining the PCI Parent Coaching Institute gave me many insights, tools, and skills to fulfill my mission and become the parent coach you’re looking for to more enjoy your life and your family.
