The Playful and Aligned Parent Program
A 12-week program designed to shift your nervous system, find a new baseline of FUN, CALM, and PLAY in parenting, and guide your family to the tools you need to better connect, find your calm, communicate, and co-regulate!
This program is designed for conscious and caring parents who are struggling to find the best way to support their sensitive child when they have big feelings, emotions, and may be expressing their needs through challenging behaviours, tantrums, going from 0 - 10, and having “fight or flight” responses, which in turn are triggering your wounds as a parent.
This is for you if you are feeling frustrated, triggered, and uncertain of how to be the aligned parent to your child you wanted to be going into parenthood.
And the present & calm parent they need you to be.
During this 12-week program you will:
Find out how to nourish yourself first and regulate your nervous system.
Find your own emotional regulation tools/techniques to parent in a more self-compassionate, calm, and aligned way so you have a greater compass and capacity to teach, support, and guide your children.
Develop your family’s “toolbox” of tools to better support your child’s needs behind the behaviour and big feelings. This will help you and your children to find your words, to communicate and express in healthier ways while better connecting and finding your fun together!
The program is designed to hold space for both you and your child to better communicate, connect, regulate, co-regulate, and find your PLAYFUL and aligned way of being in parenting.
While this program is for parents only, your children are very much a part of this process and what you learn. Even though they will not be present on the weekly calls, your children will be held in and supported through the 12 weeks.
There will be plenty of opportunities to ask for and receive aligned guidance, tools, and support to learn for you first, reset your nervous system, re-align your parenting tools and strategies, and find your calm and playfulness FIRST while receiving support and guidance on the most behaviourally appropriate (and developmentally appropriate) strategies and tools specific to your family.

Does your child...
Experience big emotions, and as a parent you don’t always know how to best support them or yourself when you get triggered in these moments?
Does your child...
Have very big feelings and is considered “highly sensitive”? Do they often FEEL “really big"? Were you that highly sensitive child too (or currently identify as an empath or a highly sensitive human)? Yet even though you have this awareness, you still aren’t always sure what to do or how to support yourself or your child?
Does your child...
Sometimes show and share these big feelings through really big tantrums, exploding emotions (from 0 - 10 real quick!!), "anxiety" or unsettled feelings, or by going into “fight or flight” REAL FAST? This can sometimes even mean fighting, challenging bedtimes, and frustration (like seeing your child hit, kick, scream, cry, or simply appear spaced out or like they just won’t listen).
Does your child...
Ever share that they are unsure of what these “feelings” are or where they come from but share that they have “worries” or “anxiety” (especially at bedtime)?
Because you know your child feels emotions very deeply, you really want to be able to better support them with these big emotions.
You know it’s your job as a parent to share your calm and not join in the chaos, yet you find it a struggle to constantly feel calm and peaceful to guide your child instead of getting caught up in the chaos and your own “stuff” in those challenging moments.
As a parent, do you feel like you need more CALM but don’t know how to create this calm and presence? Are you trying your best but somehow all the trying is leaving you feeling STRESSED?!! (The opposite of FUN, calm, and playful!)
If you are sitting here nodding yes...
I see you and I know you are ready for the breakthrough and consistent support you have been needing and silently (or not so silently) asking for.
Do you ever find yourself feeling frustrated and getting anxious in certain situations with your kids?
Does it sometimes manifest in you feeling controlling of their emotions or the situation?
Do you ever just want their emotions to STOP or “go away”, even if you know that “feeling is healing AND healthy” (and not something you want to have them push down or feel guilty about)?
As a parent, do you sometimes find it hard to allow your child
to feel what they feel and have the experience they are having?
Do you ever make it mean something about you
and whether you’re “failing” or “succeeding” as a parent? Because you reaaaally want to “get it right”?
You don’t want to feel like you have to control or make your child feel or be a certain way.
But the truth is, your shame sometimes comes up and you feel embarrassed when your child is acting up or having a tantrum or huge emotional outburst, and your friend’s children are not doing the same.
Sometimes you feel like you’re failing at this whole parenting thing
even though your whole heart is in it and you love your child more than anything.
You don’t know what to do or how to find a better way to help your child, and oftentimes feel like a bad parent (even though you know you are doing your best).
You sometimes wish that parenting your child came with a “how-to” manual or guidebook…and want to “get it right”...but more than anything, you desire to feel like your family is doing things in the way that feels aligned to you, your family, and your values.
Yet you feel a bit stuck in the “how to get it right” vs the “this feels aligned for us” way of parenting and handling the tougher moments. Even so, you’re finding it hard to not be hard on yourself in those moments.
By the end of each day, you find yourself feeling frustrated and a little helpless.
You promised you wouldn’t yell or lose it even when your child is “losing it” and going from 0 - 10 again — but here you are: yelling AGAIN, feeling sad, uncertain, and defeated.
You feel awful, guilty (mom and parent guilt, UGH!), and you no longer want to feel this way.
The more this goes on, the more frustrated you and your child are at each other. And your family or partner too from not knowing WHAT TO DO or how to deal with their emotions
and your own in the most loving and aligned way.
It feels like A LOT!!! I hear you!
And you’re so beyond ready for a change.
You're ready to...
Honour yours and your child’s big emotions and find new ways to better support them with these big emotions. To hear the need behind the tantrum or feelings. To feel more connected, more calm, and so much more ALIGNED and PLAYFUL, while connecting to, and co-regulating in, healthy loving (and dare I say PLAYFUL) ways!
You're ready to...
Have the support you need, and also be gentler, kinder, and more patient with yourself and your child in these moments, all the while building a better emotional regulation “toolbox” and baseline for yours, your child’s, and your family’s wellbeing, nervous systems, and happiness possibilities!
You're ready to...
LOVE and honour your highly sensitive child and help them have their needs met, and gain the developmentally-appropriate strategies to breathe through their feelings and frustrations so they don’t “lose it” (and so you don’t lose it anymore too)!!!
You're ready to...
Feel empowered, calm, peaceful, and resourced so you no longer feel helpless and unsure how to support your child. But instead, you know what to do while feeling better and so much more supported and connected.
You're ready to...
Have your child feel like their true self and let their full-loving self shine through (beyond the tantrums and big emotions that are clouding who they really are).
You're ready to...
Find your own “map” to parenting your sensitive child that feels ALIGNED for you so they can feel loved, connected to, and parented, without using strategies or tools that condition or make your child do something because they are forced, coerced, shamed, or manipulated into it. You truly are ready to parent in a way that feels aligned for you, your family, your values, and your FUN, and not because it’s how “you think you should be parenting”, or because it's "simply how it's done".
You're ready to...
Find the aligned playful parenting strategies, tools, and communication tips that work with you and your family!
I know you.
You are a loving compassionate parent and would do anything to make sure your child has the support they need.
You are proactive and feel like you may be trying everything you already know how to do.
And you are are soooo ready for something new and something that really gets to the heart and the root of what you, your child, and your family need, while making it feel more FUN, lighthearted, and easy so you can connect and co-regulate rather than yell, get frustrated, and feel exhausted and guilty at the end of each day.
