Raising kids has never been tougher!
They don't come with a manual and everything keeps changing for them and us!
How do we keep up?
I have helped thousands of families work through their biggest fears. Some of which are:
1. That their child will be bullied/taken advantage of
2. There is poor communication and constant arguing within the home - nothing gets done
3. Fear that their child will not be resilient, reponsible or independent.
I want resilient kids! €45This course was formerly known as "Positive Parenting Top Tips" until a cleint of mine who did the course called me and said "Nicola, the title no where near describes what this course entails, you are selling yourself short. Your course is not "top tips" - this is a parenting bible that saved my family!".

What do other people have to say about this course?
"I have just completed the long awaited "How to raise resilient kids" and my goodness I am absolutley blown away! Let's face it, there is no manual for how to parent but what Nicola provided was insight and wisdom gained through years of experience and delivered with such clarity and grace! I took pages of notes and I learned so much about my own parenting style without feeling judged or berated. I now feel empowered going forward not just as a parent but as someone working with young people on a daily basis. Nicola is honest, she is real and she is on your side! I am so delighted that I took the time and invested in myself by doing this course as I know my home will be happier, calmer and a more positive environment going forward for everyone. Once again, thank you so much for providing this workshop and imparting your wisdom to us - I share your passion for empowering young peopleand I enjoyed every second. You are a lighthouse xxx"
"Hi Nicola.....thank you so much for this course! To say we have a new child is an understatement. Myself & my husband have seen the change in his confidence, attitude and happiness but we have just received his school report and the difference in the one he got last year & this one is unbelievable! You would think they referred to two different people.
We are so grateful. Keep doing the amazing work you do."
I have just completed Nicola’s course on how to raise resilient kids. I have taken 4 pages of notes. The content was very detailed from both perspectives, the child and the parent. Nicola has a beautiful way of connecting with her audience, where you feel she is talking to you personally even though it's recorded.
One of my big takeaways was that our children need to see that when they speak poorly to their mother, this is also to my wife and best friend which helps the child understand that their mother is also an individual that just doesn’t belong to them solely.
The value for money was incredible to the amount of content given in the workshop, and you can see how passionate she is about helping children find their way in this big beautiful world !
Thank you so much Nicola.
"If you are serious about raising resilient kids, this course will give you the tools to help them find their voice and like the sound of it - which will keep them whole, happy & safe”
