Feminist Parenting

You are a good parent, but it’s not always easy, is it? You’re pulled in so many directions and there’s so much to consider. You know that you want to meet your children with compassion and respect, but sometimes you feel stuck and need a fresh perspective to make family life flow more smoothly.

Above all, you want to raise kids who are compassionate and thoughtful. You want to offer them a childhood where their hearts are seen and respected as they grow into themselves. And you want a home where harmony feels like a realistic goal.

I believe that raising children takes ongoing work on ourselves.

I offer one-to-one calls with families looking for guidance with respectful parenting challenges.

You might be looking for more balance as you care for a growing family, or searching for tools to respond to your spirited child with composure. Or perhaps you might be thinking about how best to support your child as they’re poised on cusp of some new things: starting school, a house move, a new sibling, puberty and a changing body, a shifting family structure.

You might want help unpicking a sticky bit of your daily rhythm. Or support with working out how best to help your family be a place where kind, brave, thoughtful individuals thrive and grow - including finding more peace and happiness for yourself as a parent.

I’m here to support your growth as a respectful and peaceful parent, including respectful/positive discipline, responding to changes in family structure, and providing a positive environment for neurotypical as well as neurodiverse kids.

What you’ll receive:

• Evidence-based tools and resources: I provide useful, practical, evidence-based tools and resources to help you feel more calm and confident in your parenting.
  
  

• One-to-one parenting session: During our 60-minute call, you’ll have time to  really reflect on the issues - something we don’t often give ourselves as busy parents. (If you’re in the Cardiff area, it may be possible to meet up in person if you prefer.)
  
  

• Follow up support: This call isn’t the end, though - we’ll decide together in the session whether you’d be best supported by a 30 minute follow up session, or a week of ongoing support via Voxer (a walkie-talkie app). 
  
  

• Summary report & your next steps: You’ll always get a summary report of what we’ve talked about, and links to any resources we discuss.

I am happy to work with you individually, or jointly with a partner or other carer who is important in your child’s life. I’ve supported families of all shapes and sizes, including lone parents, same-sex parents, trans parents, and families with a mum and a dad.
