How to work with The Parenting Collaborative
You don’t have to parent in the dark.
I’ve got you.
I’ll help you decode what’s really going on with your child’s behavior, explain it through a developmental lens that makes sense, and hand you tools that actually work in your real life. Whether you want one-on-one support, a self guided toolkit, or to bring this work into your school or parent group - you’ll find it here.
When parenting feels overwhelming: the tantrums that don’t stop, siblings fighting nonstop, or school mornings that unravel before 8am - you deserve more than another generic tip.

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 "
