"I was feeling like a failure..."

We can do this together."I learned practical ideas that I could put into action the very next day in my classroom."Pre-school teacher. "She challenged me to self-reflect, observe, then make adjustments that worked with individual children."Elementary teacher "We love Amy! She is a talented coach who leads with her heart. Amy has a valuable ability to see both the forest and the trees, from a parent, educator, and child perspective. Amy’s style will make you feel simultaneously respected, nurtured, and understood, and despite smoothly raising two amazing daughters to adulthood, she will never make you feel judged or as if a difficult child is that way because you are parenting the wrong way. She will teach you, a lot, without you even realizing you are being taught. Five stars; highly recommend."Happy family "Just have to share that this has been the MOST helpful parental information I have ever received in a meeting...THANK YOU!!"Happy family "As I'm listening, my spouse is implementing superpowers with three small girls falling apart before bedtime!"Happy family

"I was feeling like a failure as a parent. I reached out to Amy and she reached back with authenticity, laughter, and the best advice I could ever hope for. My home is more peaceful and sane, thanks to her. I can't thank you enough, Ms. Amy!" 

- Parent

"I was able to immediately bring this tool back to my classroom with fresh insight and a new lens to see each of my students with greater clarity. I am able to see where I fit in and how my preferences inform and sometimes cloud my ability to see the child for who they present at each moment. Powerful!" 

- Toddler Teacher

"I have been teaching for decades and Amy taught me something brand new. My entire team benefited from Amy's experience and reliability. Can we book again RIGHT NOW?"

- Head of School

- Primary Teacher
