Coaching, not a diagnosis.
I want to be very clear about what I do, because it matters for your child.
What I am
A certified parenting coach, a child nutritionist and an NLP practitioner. I work with parents of children aged 0 to 10 on behaviour, food, sleep, routines, connection and the parent's own triggers.
What I am not
I am not a doctor, a paediatrician, a psychologist, a psychiatrist, a dietitian or a therapist. Nothing I say is a medical or psychological diagnosis, and nothing I say is a treatment plan.
Please see a professional if
- You are worried about your child's development, growth, hearing or speech.
- Your child has a medical condition, an allergy or a feeding difficulty that needs supervision.
- Your child is harming themselves or someone else.
- You are struggling with your own mental health.
Coaching sits alongside that care. It does not replace it, and it is never a reason to delay seeing someone.
About food advice
Anything I share about food is general guidance for healthy children. It is not a prescription, and it is not for a child with a diagnosed condition, an allergy or a feeding disorder. Please check with your paediatrician first.
About results
Every child is different and every home is different. I will give you my honest best, but I cannot promise a particular result, and the change depends on the practice you put in.
In an emergency
Call your doctor or your local emergency number. Please do not wait to message me.
