Welcome

 OH NO! Are your child's pajamas the wrong color again? Did you take away the phone, tell them that cookies are not a suitable 9 pm snack? Did the bubbles drain from the bathtub too quickly? My, my,  it sounds like you really are the bad guy.

   Meltdowns are a natural and normal part of navigating large emotions in fatigued, tiny bodies and tired minds. It's tough to be a parent today when children are faced with more anxiety and left without proper coping mechanisms. This can leave the child and parent or caregiver feeling exhausted, confused, and frustrated and can lead to inappropriate consequences.

   As such, my job is to step in and be that 5-minute breather for the both of you.

   Using a compassionate and additive approach to intuitive parenting and integrative health guidance, I carefully craft bedtime routines that help calm, ease, and reduce anxiety with on-call goodnight meditations for your child when they seem to hit trouble zones. Parents, you can ditch those threats. Sometimes, a soothing voice with fun calming techniques will empower your child to shift their mindset from "slay, to sleep," which can give you, too, a moment to breathe. 

   As a former Trama EMT, 9-1-1 dispatcher, preschool headteacher who specialized in classroom management that taught about logical consequence and troubling behaviors, a live-in nanny, and one-on-one support for multiple parents - I am suited to de-escalate and guide your tiny human to a more heart-centered zone during a tantrum and anxious moments.

   Clients are offered 3 5-minute phone calls a month during preset bedtime hours, with two additional calls added in so that the child can get used to Britta, their "fairy godmother," their nanny, or whatever name they feel is best. Parental support and information are provided after each trouble zone for an additional 5 minutes. This is a subscription package and is client-centered. 

Did you know that most children's anatomy books engage young minds starting at 3 years old with fun anatomy facts about how the body has over 200 bones and different neurons but fails to mention our most basic bodily functions such as excretion? 

    Not to mention, cartoon drawings are shown without genitalia, which is confusing to children who may already be toileting or are in the process of learning about the use and hygiene of their own bodies. What a confusing message!  If children are exposed to play dolls and images presented without genitalia and only given nicknames for these exclusive private parts, then how are they not supposed to grow up feeling ashamed,  embarrassed, and disempowered? This is a dangerous concept in the world of sexual abuse and exploitation.

   For parents who are unsure how to navigate the "ins-and outies" of a tiny human's anatomy due to Social and emotional discomfort, I'm here for gentle one-on-one support via telehealth or in-person appointments as this Holistic Guide is underway.

   From fun games to creative thinking ideas, I assist parents to get comfortable using anatomical terms that may empower your child to own their bodies with confidence. This has profound benefits and prevents confusion, fights body shame, and the stigma that nicknaming genitalia is socially appropriate. Children are invited to session after initial parental one-on-one support so that it is an engaging talk for ages 2 and up.
