What is parent coaching?

Parent coaching is supporting parents in their job of taking care of their children. A coach is someone who can reassure parents that they are doing the right thing, give suggestions and ideas based on expert's research while understanding that all families and children are different and unique. A parent coach isn’t that much different from a sports coach. A professional athlete may know just about everything that there is to know about their sport, but they still benefit enormously from having a coach. A coach can give them a different perspective, offer encouragement, change routine as well as push them to the next level. A parent coach does just that, but in the realm of parenting and parent-child relationships.

The earliest years are the most important years for shaping a child’s life; grab onto this opportunity!

For instance, many parents don’t want to introduce pacifiers or thumbs because sometime down the road, […]

With all of the different parenting philosophies out there, a mother or father could get quite confused.  One group believes in one thing, while another group believes the exact opposite (when did parenting begin to mirror politics?) But thankfully, there is one thing that everyone can agree on: the family dinner. The family dinner is […]

Disappointment and the Power of a Toddler…

Posted by: Suzy Burger Categories: Behavior Positive Parenting

From Wikipedia: Disappointment is the feeling of dissatisfaction that follows the failure of expectations or hopes to manifest. This definition describes every couple of minutes in a toddler’s life.  They don’t get what they want and they don’t like that. But it is also a great teaching tool because as adults, we are well aware of […]

Allowing our children to take risks (as scary as that may seem)

Posted by: Suzy Burger Categories: Behavior Positive Parenting
No comments

Once our babies are born, we don’t dare to think of all the things that could happen to them.  We have dreams and nightmares at night of these fears of them getting hurt.  We try to protect them any way we can. But that in itself, harms the child. Humans need to push themselves, we […]
