Why have a child? Fifty years from now, it won't matter what kind of car you drove, what kind of house you lived in, how much money you had in the bank, but the world may be a little better because you were important in the life of a child. NB Judy is training from July 2020-July 2021 and unavailable. Please contact The Parent Practice London for support

Be more of the parent you want your child to have. Coaching will bring out the best in you as a parent.

The first step is to get in touch and tell me what you want to change.

What is Parent Coaching?

“Judy’s coaching helped me rediscover my confidence as a parent.  The combination of encouragement and practical tips helped me to weather one of those tricky patches that we all go through as parents”
Mum of a 3 year-old and coach

“The seriousness of the conflict has changed dramatically. I’m not nagging, my son is more reflective and when dinner is ready there aren’t a lot of fights. The coaching time to hear each other’s views with you there. Judy was constructive, I would definetly come back to you if we need help in the future.” Parents of 2 teens.

“I can only thank you again for helping me to turn her round from  the quite frightening little madam she was into the lovely daughter you gave me the confidence to believe she could be. Your help is probably the best thing I have ever spent money on in my life and worth much  more than you can ever imagine.”Paediatrician and Dad, 3 children under 7

“I have found my sessions with Judy have been a great investment. Its been great to confide in someone with plenty of experience of helping families before. Some of the concepts I’ve found really helpful were: learning to be real and honest with my children to (to a point) about how I am feeling if I’m struggling with the frustrations that arise with a 2 and 4 year old, to identify with my children on feelings of anger and upset and say ‘its fine to be cross’ but helping them with how they go on to handle them. Practical solutions and ideas to teaching my son to put his clothes on, eat breakfast and encouraging my daughter to be more gentle. Coaching really helped as there is the follow up and discussion on how tactics have worked and any adaptions made. Judy’s style is very open, honest and encouraging and I particularly appreciated that as well. ” Mum, pregnant with Number 3 and two small children

“Thank you so much for all the work you did with my husband and I, both individually and together. It was really invaluable and we both came away with lots of things to think about and lots of ideas to try out.” Parents of 4 children, under 10.

“I have genuinely reaped long lasting rewards and found the few sessions and their outcome helped me think positively about myself and my abilityto make good decisions.It also helped me to confirm what matters to me and what fires me. I left my job and now have a’portfolio’ of aspects to my life, including two paid elements and three charitable roles, as well as continuing my professional development with some training, and of course running a home and family! Sometimes it all feels too much but most of thetime I honestly feel that I have a great balance and I’m very happy.” Parent – parenting and life coach client

‘During our time with you we have noticed a positive shift. A subtle and organic one. We as parents are more aware than ever. For this we are very grateful.” Parents of 9 year old.

  • Coaching is about action, achievement and solving problems.
  • Coaching believes that the client has all the answers they need and the skill of the coach is to bring out the best solutions from the client for their family.
  • Coaching is completely confidential and non-judgemental
  • Coaching is NOT therapy, counselling, mentoring or advising.

We all make resolutions and promises to change. Parents say “I’m going to stop shouting and nagging” or “If only I could just trust my teenager” but how often do these ideals or goals really last? Reading parenting books and talking with friends and family can be helpful, but what do you need to really make the changes you want as a parent and feel your confidence grow?

As your Parent Coach I will work with you to identify what you want to achieve and then support you to reach your goals and overcome obstacles along the way. Coaching can be in person, on the phone, or Internet platforms. As a guide, most clients have around six sessions over six months, depending on the kind of issues they want to resolve.

Some issues I have coached parents on:

  • Confidence
    How to be positive about your ability to be a parent
  • Anxious parents
    Is my child OK? Am I OK? How to calm down, gain perspective
  • Parents behaviour
    Shouting, smacking, feeling angry and fed up, unsure
  • Parenting styles clash!
    What kind of parent are you? Is your partner the same or is there a clash of values, styles and behaviour?
  • Relationship with child
    My child drives me mad, not sure I’m coping
  • Teenage issues
    Trust, sex, drugs, alcohol, friends, money, work, attitude
  • Lone parents
    Making decisions alone, dealing with separation/divorce, and children’s behaviour
  • Working parent
    How to manage work demands, and still be a great parent
  • Life events
    Birth, new partnership, world news, death
  • Schools
    Bullying, study skills, teachers
  • Peer pressure
    Worries about friends
  • Food & health
    Fussy eaters, exercise, coping with allergies
