Walking beside you while you find your inner wisdom.
For parents and teachers
About Peaceful Beginnings
How did it start
As an ECE teacher I found that I was spending more and more time coaching parents and LOVING it!
I started to see changes in relationships in the families I was spending time with. I knew that they wanted the best for their children, and I also saw that sometimes that they didn't see another way. I knew that journey as my own parenting has had moments I am really proud about and moments that I cringe at now.
I started to see that parents thought they had to be perfect or that others were judging them, and I wanted to offer them a safe place to BE where they could be vulnerable and safely talk about what was happening in their parenting journey.
For me. parenting didn't come naturally and I wanted to create something that would support parents to open up into their inner wisdom.
I have been studying with The Pikler Institute in Budapest for the last 5 years on my way to becoming a Pikler Pedagogue. I continue this journey NOT now for the end result BUT for how each year as I go back, I GROW as a human BEing. This approach is the most respectful and kind to not only children but the adults that walk beside them and I just want to keep going back to sit in their beautiful wisdom and then share that with you, as we ripple out the kaupapa of Love and compassion to others.
Working from the top of the cliff
I wish that all parents and teachers could start off with my infant courses.
For parents for the next 6 months I am taking my 5 week parent infant class on the road. NORTH, EAST, SOUTH AND WEST Auckland. If you want a course in your area just message me
END of JULY
TUESDAY AM Waiuku PM Karaka
In talks to bring to Hobsonville
ECE centres would you like to host me on a weekend?
My first class is a 5-week introduction to conscious parenting for parents and their babies 2–6-month-olds.
This moves on to my PlaySpace for crawling to young toddlers.
Here I share what I wished I had learnt when I was a new mum.
For teachers I have my Placing the Child at the Heart of the Matter course. I want to ask teachers do you really know the building blocks for brain development, attachment theory, relationship teaching and a healthy nervous system. Let me show you what I wished I had known and the understanding that those working with our youngest have such an incredibly important journey. ITS NOT JUST BABYSITTING.
What does Peaceful Beginnings have to offer?
Peaceful Beginnings is about walking beside you, supporting you to find your inner wisdom. I will work with you where you need me to.
My guiding light is to empower you so that you do not need me. And I have been really working at how I do that.
The image of me skydiving was the scariest things that I did. I was literally jumping into my FEAR,
Can you see what is in the water?
A FULL RAINBOW.
And that is what I want to create with Peaceful Beginnings. The full rainbow that will support you in your parenting and teaching.
