How to work with The Parenting Collaborative

Client testimonial
"I can't tell you how much it meant to hear that what I was feeling was normal. That alone was worth it. But then we actually figured out what to do about it." - JS, Los Angeles, CA

"I came in overwhelmed and left with clarity. Lauren has a way of making complex things feel manageable without dumbing them down."

You’re not the problem. The missing translation is.
The reason parenting feels this hard isn't because you're not trying hard enough. It's because most advice treats all kids the same - and yours isn’t.
I'm Lauren. I hold a master's degree in child and adolescent development, and I've spent years translating what the research actually says about kids into what works at 7am with your specific child.
Here's how we work together:
Discovery call
30 minutes - Free
Something is happening with your child. You've tried what everyone recommends. Some of it works sometimes. You still can't figure out why.
In 30 minutes, I give you my honest read on what's actually driving it — not a framework that may or may not fit, but a real look at your specific kid. You leave with a clearer picture of what's happening and where to focus first.
This is a conversation. I'll tell you what I actually see.
A credit card is required to hold your spot. No-shows are charged $39.
Parenting clarity session
1 hour at $200.00
Whatever is happening: the tantrums, the shutdown, the defiance, the 11pm Google spiral… but you haven't been able to put your finger on the real why.
In one hour, I give you my full read on your child. What's underneath the behavior. Why what you've been trying keeps missing. And what to actually do — designed around your kid, not the idea of your kid.
You leave with understanding that transfers to tomorrow morning when it's hard.
Clarity + action package
3 sessions @ $550.00
For the parent who doesn't want to understand the problem once — they want to stop hitting it.
Three sessions over 4-6 weeks. We go deep on what's actually driving your kid's patterns, why the usual approaches keep missing, and build the specific approach that works for your child in your family — not the one that sounds right in theory.
Most parents describe this as: 'I finally stopped feeling like I was failing.'

Support for Schools
Schools shouldn’t leave families unsupported. I offer workshops, trainings, and parent groups that blend research with real-life tools.
School Partnerships
Professional development for educators + parent education nights.Custom Workshop
Tailored sessions on tantrums, sibling conflict, secure attachment, and more. -
Parenting Groups
Guided conversations + practical strategies in a supportive circle.
Excited about the idea of joining a casual virtual parenting group with other parents who get what you're going through? We're putting together some parenting groups for folks with kiddos in similar age ranges and developmental stages. Just fill out this quick questionnaire and we'll add you to the wait list!

Your next step
Parenting doesn’t get easier with hacks. It gets clear with the right map, and someone walking it with you. That’s what I do.
Where do you want to start?
"Ever since my son was born, I’ve known what type of in-depth info I’ve wanted to know about him - the deeper layers that I couldn’t see but knew were being impacted by his environment, our family, his friends, and schooling. But I couldn’t find that information until I went back to school to learn about child development - how children develop across various life stages. Having access to child development information, studies, and theories that shape our current day parenting and schooling practices has been a game changer when it comes to raising my kids. I’m talking about the knowledge and understanding I’ve gained that helps me interact with my kids in a whole new, more empathetic way.
Here’s the deal: if we want to help kids live healthy, happy lives, it all starts with their parents and caregivers. That’s why I’ve zeroed in on giving parents and caregivers access to crucial info about their kids to help them develop the social and personal intellectual skills that can be transformative for both kids and adults involved "
