This course is designed for parents of primary school-aged children who are highly sensitive and strong-willed children who want to cultivate a deeper understanding of their child's unique temperament and develop practical, confidence-boosting parenting strategies. It’s perfect for parents who are looking to trust their instincts more, reduce power struggles, and create a more harmonious and connected relationship with their child. Whether you’re dealing with emotional overwhelm, defiance, or just the day-to-day challenges of raising a strong-willed child, this course provides tools, support, and a community to help you navigate it all. It’s for any parent who is ready to feel empowered in their parenting and create lasting positive change for their family.

The course will run for five weeks, with a live Zoom session each Friday from 25th April 2025 12:30pm-2pm to Friday 23rd May 12:30pm-2pm. Each week, you’ll gain new tools, insights, and strategies to help your child regulate their nervous system and manage their emotions.

The course is delivered through weekly live Zoom calls where we’ll dive deeper into the course content, discuss practical strategies, and answer your questions in real time. Here's what to expect during each session:

Week 2: Trusting Your Parenting Instincts

This course is specifically designed for parents with primary school-aged children (ages 4–12). The tools and techniques we cover will help you address the unique needs of children in this age group who may struggle with emotional regulation, impulsivity, or sensitivity.

Yes, there will be a WhatsApp group for all course participants! This group is designed to support your learning and help you reflect on the course material throughout the week. I will be sharing reflection prompts, questions, and insights, and I encourage you to use this space to share any breakthroughs, challenges, or thoughts related to what we've covered in the sessions. It's also a great place to connect with other parents who are on a similar journey.

Please note that this group is not a therapy group, and it's not intended for crisis support. If you're dealing with intense emotional reactions or need to process something more deeply, I recommend reaching out to a therapist or other professional support. My goal is to keep the group a safe, supportive environment for everyone, so I may need to remove any comments that don’t align with these guidelines. I appreciate your cooperation and look forward to building a positive, nurturing space for everyone! Additionally, you’ll have access to the Resonant Parenting Project helpdesk if you have any specific questions.

Absolutely! While this course is focused on sensitive, strong-willed children, the tools and strategies taught can also be beneficial for children with other behavioural challenges such as ADHD, anxiety, or other emotional regulation issues. These techniques are flexible and can be adapted to suit a range of needs.

No worries! If you're unable to attend any of the live Zoom sessions, each session will be recorded and made available for you to watch at your convenience. You’ll have access to the replay shortly after the live call, so you can still benefit from all the insights, strategies, and Q&A discussed during the session. This way, you can stay on track with the course, even if life as a busy parent gets in the way!

The course is priced at £120 to make the essence of my one-to-one conscious parenting coaching work accessible to as many parents as possible. I wanted to offer a way for more parents to benefit from this transformative approach without the higher cost of individual sessions—one 60-minute session with me would typically cost significantly more than this entire 5-week course!

As a special offer, there’s an Early Bird rate of £99 for those who book before 23rd March 2025. This is a great opportunity to join the course at a reduced price and start your journey toward confident parenting with a highly sensitive, strong-willed child.

Yes. If you feel that you could greatly benefit from the course but the cost is a barrier, please feel free to reach out directly to apply for one of the bursary spaces. You'll be asked to share a little bit about your situation and why you’re interested in the course.
