Parenting from a place of consciousnessI work with parents to give them tools and strategies to gain insight into their parentingprocess and the learning and developmental process their child is engaged in. Asparents we want what is best for our child but each child, is different and they do notcome with their own instruction manual. We all have questions such as: How do I choose a “good-fit” school for my child? What is my child-care provider doing for the hours she is with my child? How do I set up a learning and caring dialogue with my child’s care providers? When will my child dress himself? How do I make it happen? Does bedtime really have to be this difficult? How do we make it easier for everyone in the family? Why is getting homework done a time of conflict between my child and me or my partner? Other families get out the door and to school on time. Why can’t we? How do we navigate technology in our home and out in the world? (cell phones, music devices, computers, television, video games.) What does it mean for my child to navigate the city on her own? How will I know when my child is ready to do this (walk to school, take the bus, ride the subway, go to the grocery store)?We can explore and find satisfying responses to these questions and the many othersthat are of concern to you and affect your family’s harmony. Focusing on compassion,cognition, and connection we will work together to discover useful ways to support yourevolving parent-child relationship. It is my goal to help parents gain understanding anddevelop the critical thinking tools that will allow them to grow with their child andcollaborate with teachers and other adults.
