YOU'RE TRYING TO PARENT YOUR CHILD GENTLY & REPECTFULLY
But youâre not always sure what to do when your child doesnât listen.
Timeouts and idle threats arenât really your thing.
Â
But it doesnât feel great if the only time your child listens is when you lose your cool đ Â
(and feel awful about it afterwards)Â
or bribe them with more screen time or a đ to do what you said.
Youâre tired of power struggles at bedtime, and you wish it were easier to get your child dressed in the morning, or leave the playground without a fight.
 IT'S TIME FOR
Kind, calm, confident momsÂ
AND KIDS THAT LISTEN THE FIRST TIME.Â
HI, I'M SARA
Iâm a teacher turned parenting coach who loves helping parents raise happy, helpful kids with a Montessori-inspired âbalancedâ parenting approach.
My version of balanced parenting combines the idea of gentle and respectful parenting with proven strategies from the Montessori philosophy.
So you can offer your child direction and guidance in a gentle and respectful way that doesnât harm your relationship or scare your child into compliance.
With a Master's degree in Education and 30+ years of working with children, I've learned that the most important thing about raising cooperative kids isn't rewards or punishments.Â
It's connection. Because you can be kind, calm, and respectful, and raise a child who is the same.Â
AND ALSOâŠ
Being a kind, calm mom doesn't mean letting your child be in charge of EVERYTHING.
Â
Your child is hard-wired to look to you to show them how the world works. You are their loving and trusted mentor and coach, and offering them leadership and guidance is an important part of your role.Â
That's why I've created THE KID TALK TECHNIQUE.
Because I'm here for kind, calm parents who understand their kids still need to:
đȘ„ Brush their teethÂ
đ¶ Not pull the dogâs tail
đđŒ And hold your hand when you cross the street.Â
Wouldn't it be nice to...Â
Â
LEAVE THE PLAYGROUND
Without your child ignoring your directions, endless negotiations, and at least one of you crying?
Â
START THE DAY
With calm and peaceful time as family instead of power struggles over brushing their teeth, putting on shoes, and two more bites of breakfast?
Â
HAVE FEWER FIGHTS WITH YOUR HUSBAND OR WIFE
Because you approach your child's tricky moments in a gentle and supportive way that you both feel good about?Â
An online program for the parents of children ages 2-5.
Â
It's a proven process for talking to your child in a way that makes them more likely to cooperate in the first place ANDÂ shows you how to follow through without losing your cool when they donât.Â
Your Kind, Calm, Confident Mom Era Starts Here
STEP 1:Â Becoming a Kind, Calm, and Confident Mom
Â
The mindset and inner work that helps you step into your role as a kind, calm, and confident leader in your home.
Anchor your guidance in a strong relationship and loving connection with your child.
A Montessori understanding of your child's development and approaching your childâs tricky moments with the underlying energy of offering support. You're not disciplining or reprimanding your child. You teach them the expectations in a loving, gentle, and mutually respectful way.
STEP 2:Â Develop Your Magic Mom Voice
Â
Your Magic Mom Voice is the heart and soul of being a kind, calm, and confident mom.Â
You are gentle, respectful, and working with your childâs development to help your child be more likely to cooperate with your directions.Â
Youâll learn specific words and phrases that that make your child more likely to follow your directions and less likely to fling themselves on the floor in protest when theyâre not in the mood.
STEP 3:Â Follow Through without Losing Your Cool
Â
Learn how to follow through on your direction with calm, consistent, and gentle support.
It's how you get from POINT A (youâve given your child a direction, but theyâre not following your direction,) ⥠⥠to POINT B (theyâre following your direction) without raising your voice, begging, or bribing.Â
The Kid Talk Technique is specifically designed for busy parents of young children.
Â
The lessons are prerecorded audio lessons so you can learn on your own schedule.Â
You can listen in the car, on a walk, or while your emptying the dishwasher.Â
The lessons are short, focused, and designed to get you using what you're learning right away.Â
Youâll focus on one topic each week so you can practice and apply what youâre learning without feeling overwhelmed.Â
The course is paced to be very doable in 8 weeks, with less than an hour of lesson content each week.Â
Each week you'll receive a "Momentum Email" with a brief introduction to that week's topic.
These weekly reminder emails help keep The Kid Talk Technique at the top of your inbox, and top of mind, helping you stay motivated and engaged in the program.
To help you feel confident that you will know how to apply these strategies to your own life, The Kid Talk Technique also includes
8 weeks of 1:1 support in the messaging app Telegram.
Â
Pop your question in a Telegram message or short voice note, and we can troubleshoot challenges and help you apply what youâre learning with this âasynchronousâ support. (Telegram is a messaging app like Slack or WhatsApp that you can access on your phone or computer.)
The Kid Talk Technique is not just a course. Itâs a step-by-step process with my support along the way.
To help you feel even more supported in the program,
