The Gentle Parenting Companion Guides
No more time outs, no more yelling, no more threats.
It’s possible to gain your child’s cooperation while maintaining your connection. Let me show you how.
Flip the narrative on traditional punishment while deepening your connection with your child through modelling, leading by example and most importantly showing them that they’re loved for who they are and not what they do.
And some of the outcomes of this approach?
- Instilling your child with a growth mindset, rather than a fixed mindset
- Encouraging and teaching problem-solving skills
- Promoting the development of a secure attachment
- Fostering natural independence, boosting your child’s confidence and nurturing their self-worth
- Maintaining your natural influence as a parent, which is so much more powerful than coercion
These guides are exactly what I need!

“The level of cooperation parents get from children is usually equal to the level of connection children feel with their parents.”
Everything begins with connection, first to ourselves and then to our children.
GENTLE PARENTING
You're drowning in the “shoulds” and “have to’s” of our adult-centred society. . The status quo of the parenting world is that punishment, time outs, threats, rewards, praise and forced manners are the fast track way to gain your child's cooperation. But somewhere in the back of your mind you’re asking yourself, at what cost?
Do you remember being forced to hug and kiss Grandma because your parents told you that's what kind children do?
Did you grow up being asked for the “magic word” but always wondered what the magic word even was?
Were you sent to your room more times than you can remember for the seemingly smallest of things?
Do you find yourself feeling rigid and hesitant to try new things for fear of failing or not being good enough?
Are you giving and giving to your child to the point of resentment? Do you feel like you’ve lost yourself in parenthood and are desperate to fulfil your needs again but don’t know where to begin?
You want to do things differently but in the heat of the moment it can be hard to know what to say and do.
You don’t want to yell, threaten or withdraw your love in these moments but sometimes you don’t know any other way.
Did your parents withdraw their love and isolate you when you didn’t align with their way of being? Do you find yourself desperate to avoid such measures with your own child?
You know you don’t want any of this for your children.
You’re committed to breaking generational cycles.
You remember how it felt and know there must be a more connected way that honours the relationship you have worked so hard to build with your child.
But sometimes you forget it all and revert to what you subconsciously know.
And that is why the Gentle Parenting Companion Guides were created for you. To offer you a shortcut to doing things differently.
These guides are exactly what I need!

The founder, writer and advocate behind the award-winning blog, Raised Good - a guide to natural parenting in the modern world. Based in Vancouver and originally launched in 2016, I’ve been overwhelmed by the positive response and the global community that’s developed.
Our common thread is that our instincts are telling us something about the way our culture tells us to raise children isn’t working. And while I may not have all the answers, I’m willing to ask the tough questions and advocate for kids and for you, their brave and amazing mum.
Together we’re reclaiming the wonder of motherhood and the joy of childhood one decision at a time.

"External motivators for behaviour such as rewards and punishments may destroy the precious internal motivation to be good, making leverage by such artificial means necessary by default. As an investment in easy parenting, trusting in a child's desire to be good for us is one of the best."
You will start to flow in your relationship with your child.
