Our Services

Cicelia Hililki from Happily Families defines a coach as "someone with training or expertise in a specific area who works with clients to help accomplish their goals faster than they would be able to do on their own".

​

No matter what anyone has to say, parenting is not easy. Parenting can feel overwhelming as though we are riding an emotional rollercoaster. Sometimes we feel like we want to rip our hair out and scream from the top of a building or hide in the closest until it all calms down.

Sometimes we feel that no matter how hard we try and whatever positive intensions we wake up with, the same unhelpful pattern happens again.

Parenting is one of the most challenging roles we face and yet is so rewarding. We love our children unconditionally, and at the same time, we wonder how it takes so much out of us.

At the Parenting Pod, we understand that every family is different. We aim to get a sense of what's happening in your home to help support you from exactly where you are right now with no judgement or blame. We understand that parenting is not a one size fits all and that every family is unique. We will work together with you to understand and discover your own best way to parent. We
are not here to fix you or your child, but rather to support you to gain a clearer understanding of your values, experiences, and goals.

​

We are here to listen and provide you with the tools so that your parent/ child relationship is one of secure and connected. We stand by you while you build your new skills. We use a strength-based approach to look at and celebrate the things you are doing well and also help you navigate the challenges. We will support you in being curious, courageous and connected in your parenting.

An 8 week parenting program targeting parents/caregivers of children aged 0-12 years old.

​

At times as parents/caregivers, we feel lost or without a clue about what our child might need from us. 

Imagine what it could feel like if you were able to make sense of what your child was really asking from you.

The Circle of Security Parenting™ Program is an evidence-based program to help parents/caregivers connect and promote secure attachment with the child. This program has shown and demonstrated through decades of research how secure caregiver-child relationships can be supported and strengthened. 

Research shows that children with secure attachment to their primary caregiver have more confidence, compassion, resilience and a base from where emotional intelligence can flourish.

​

What you will gain:

Through the training you will learn:

• To understand your child’s emotional world by learning to read their emotional needs.

• Support your child’s ability to successfully manage and regulate emotions.

• Enhance the development of your child's sense of self.

• Honour your innate wisdom and desire for your child to be secure.

Our small group program offers a safe, supportive environment where you can feel free to share your thoughts, ideas and learn from others experiencing similar challenges.

A supportive community offers a tailored space to grow as parent when you get stuck. Why not create your own with parents that you're already connected with...

To parent well besides love and patience, you need information and support.

​

Here at the Parenting Pod, we offer a tailored workshop for 2 to 8 parents/caregivers where we provide the information and support you need. 

Having a safe space where you can talk about your parenting struggles and parenting wins can be so valuable.

Having time to yourself, with the people that fill your cup is also very important. Organise your own group at a venue and time that is convenient to you and come to us with your concerns. We can then put together a tailored workshop to meet your needs.
