Calming Kids

My child is 10 ½ - is it too late for him?

This course has been designed to help parents with children aged 4-10.

This is because angry teens need a very specific set of tools and techniques that we don't cover here.

As your child is not yet a teenager (although it probably feels like they are!), the strategies in this course will work for you.

What if my partner isn't on board? Will this still work?

There are lots of reasons your partner may not be on board. They may have a different opinion on how to deal with your child’s anger. Perhaps they don't like involving anyone else in their family life or they think your child's anger is normal.

The good news is your partner doesn't need to be on board. It helps if they are, but you can learn the skills. Pretty soon your partner will begin to see that what you're learning works and they will start doing the same thing. Once you join the course, you can both access and learn the skills.

Shouldn't I instinctively know how to parent my child?

If you're like most parents I've worked with, then you're a good parent who needs some specific skills to deal with the situation you've never dealt with before.

It is shocking that you get less training to be a parent than you do to drive a car. Just because you gave birth to your child doesn't mean you have all the skills to deal with every curve ball life throws at you.

Sometimes we all need a bit of help. If you knew how to teach your child how to properly manage their anger, you wouldn't be here looking for answers.

I have skills that have taken over 10 years to hone, and in the same way that you seek a solicitor for legal advice, and hire an accountant to help you with your taxes - you need an expert for the most important aspect of your life, your child.

You've never met my child, her behaviour is SO BAD.

I understand you're worried, particularly if your child is wired differently. Maybe your child has ADHD, is on the autistic spectrum or has another diagnosis that makes their behaviour harder to interpret and manage.

Calming Kids is exactly right for you and your child. I have worked with hundreds of children and have never known this process not to work. It may take longer for some of the steps, but I know you'll get there.

I don't have a lot of time

I understand you're busy balancing all the things you need to do looking after your child, working, doing all the jobs that need to be done and dealing with the daily pressures of life.

The good news is you can do the online course in your own time, in the evenings and weekends when your child is occupied - it's perfect because you can fit it in when it suits you.

The whole program from start to finish takes just 9 hours.

I condensed the training as much as I possibly can so the course is full of useful information and techniques in a simple easy-to-understand style. If you put in the time to use the things you'll learn you'll save time and stress not having to deal with all the outbursts, upsets, and sleepless nights.

And that's the lovely thing about this course, it will help you enjoy your child again. You’ll have more fun, enjoy close time with your child, feel more relaxed and playful, have more laughter, create wonderful memories and create a home life you love.
