TESTIMONIALS
"I recently completed a 6 week 1 to 1 parenting course and I cannot recommend this course highly enough. Heather's positive attitude and ability to make the course enjoyable, interactive and thought provoking has given me a much better understanding of my son, what drives his behaviour and how to respond in challenging situations."
David, Dad of 1
"What I have really loved is the input from other participants on the course; women and men who are accomplished in their professional fields who want to do as good a job of parenting as they have in their careers. All have boys and girls at different ages and stages and so contribute a rich range of experiences to the discussion, those to which our new found skills can be applied."

"This workshop was useful in helping me to understand what our son will be going through, how that will affect him and how we can positively help him navigate his way through his teens."
Dad of 1
"Very positive with lovely humorous touches. I liked the fact it sought to give practical strategies – very helpful."
Mum of 3
"It is always so reassuring to be in a room with other parents who can freely admit to not having all the answers and who welcome practical pointers for raising a family. It can be such a thankless task at times and to attend a course with Heather - a calm, non-judgmental supportive figure who has plenty of practical and learnt experience - was a productive way to spend a morning. I also enjoyed using my brain cells in more of an academic way concerning day to day practical life skills where I normally act without really thinking! Thank you."

“Heather's talk was a complete eye-opener as to how some very simple everyday behaviours and reactions from my husband and I with our children are in fact lowering their self-esteem and creating further confrontations. The equally simple tools taught over this session (though taking a while to implement due to long-formed bad habits) are already making a difference - and will hopefully lead firstly to a happier summer break for the whole family but also happier, confident and thoughtful adolescents.”

"What I found most useful was emotion coaching and descriptive praise skills – it was useful to have a framework to work from. "
