Every parent feels the conflict between the challenges of work and home and however professional we are, when our home life pressures become too great, our work inevitably suffers. What do working parents need when they come to work having just had a row about homework, or worrying about their teenagers, or having been up all night with a sick child? They need to stop worrying, and feel really confident about their role as a parent. That way, they’re free to get on with their job to the best of their ability. Smart companies use Business Coaches for solutions, action and support. Parent Coaches are a valuable and unique way for employers to support working parents in the most important and challenging job they do – being a parent. Take a wise decision like the HSBC bank or Cambridgeshire County Council and find out more about the benefits of bringing Parent Coaching and Parent Workshops to your working parents A selection of testamonials from schools and businesses: “Judy Reith’s talk on ‘ 7 Secrets of Raising Girls Every Parent Must Know’ was deeply appreciated by the many parents who attended. She gave the most sensible and much needed advice, and delivered it with humour and empathy reassuring anxious parents. Her emphasis on values and legacy was a great reminder that it is important to focus on what really matters when it comes to raising our daughters, and indeed our sons. I would highly recommend Judy as a parenting speaker.” Barbara Elliott, Headmistress, Channing School. ” Parents have been very enthusiastic about the work done by Sarah Rose and Judy Reith, feeling that it has been invaluable in helping them meet the challenges of being a parent of teenagers. Living with Teenagers has now become a key part of our Every Child Matters work, and it plays a significant role in helping parents support their child’s progress and achievement at school, as well as at home. I would highly recommend it to any school!” Andrew Hutchinson Executive Principal, Parkside Federation “The Darling Daughters event is really worthwhile -GO if you get the chance.” Justine Roberts, founder and CEO of MUMSNET “Thank you for such an enjoyable and informative session.
