Picture Perfect Parenting?
Parenthood isn’t always what we thought it would be. Being a parent is exhausting work. It isn’t just about those sweet moments when you get a warm hug, play a fun game, or hear those sweet, sweet words, “I love you”.
While the sweet moments come and go, what is consistent is the work, the effort, and some sleepless nights. So many parents enter into this journey with the intention to be the “picture perfect parent”.
The picture you create in your dreams is so satisfying and so misleading. Creating expectations of perfection in parenting not only creates an environment of stress for you, but also can lead to your child feeling very unsettled and act out. When some parents don’t experience the picture perfect parental journey it can leave you feeling like you weren’t good enough or like you have failed.
This is why so many parents could benefit from some support. There isn't just one right way to parent and there is no such thing as perfect parenting! I can help you parent like a pro.

Maybe you describe life with your family as chaotic or you’ve been noticing increasing frustration that makes you feel overwhelmed or like you want to run away?
