KnowHow2 Parent

Accessible, affordable and available for all parents/carers of verbal children of any age.  Prevent problems from happening in the first place – repair relationships if they need it.   Get the KnowHow to transform behaviour and build stronger relationships for a happier family.

If you would prefer to work with a group of friends, (I need a minimum number of 5 people)  please let me know what dates/times work best for you.  There is an option to run these workshops as 2 full days (10am-4pm).  Please ask!

If you’d prefer to work 1:1 (or 1:2, with your partner), please book a Parent Knowhow Coaching.

WORKSHOPS

BE YOU: Find your ‘style’ of parenting; understand the pyschology of growth and development; bust some Parenting Myths; recognise the difference between Needs and Values (yours and your family); increase your Emotional Self Awareness and Self Confidence; and find 5 values you want to bring into your parenting.

HAVE A RESOURCEFUL, HEALTHY MINDSET: Understand how your brain works and why an integrated brain is important for you and your child; move from being reactive to proactive; learn how to regulate so you can think clearly (and help your child to regulate eg trantrums/meltdowns); cultivate resilient parenting and a growth mind-set.

LISTEN WELL: Understand and apply Person Centred Theory to your relationships; recognise empathy and your blocks to empathy; accept your child as they are, whilst being authentically you; avoid the pitfalls of dysfunctional relating; practice Active Listening Skills and Mediation Skills so that children can move from emotional distress to problem solving.

BE HEARD – USE ‘CLEAN’ LANGUAGE: Less arguments and more communication; keep your cool (anger management); understand an appropriate use of power and learn how to influence your child to encourage considerate behaviour; develop a discipline philosophy so that you can address unacceptable behaviour and give healthy praise; avoid power struggles so that your family has boundaries everyone respects; and resolve conflict so that everyone is OK.

INFLUENCE GOOD CHOICES: Move from being concerned to influencing your child’s values; live the values you want to see in your child; allow your child to be different to you (so you can change with your child); and understand what do do when you and your child have values clashes.
