Trusted Parent Coaching - Your Partner in Parenting
For nearly 25 years, I have had a front-row seat to the most magical show on Earth
The wonder of childhood is truly remarkable. My career has been more than just a series of jobs; it has been a lifelong commitment to child development and nurturing the growth of tiny humans. From being present in the room for a newborn’s first breath to cheering on a teenager as they navigate the complexities of high school, I have dedicated my life to providing family support and being a steady, compassionate anchor for families. As a provider of Trusted Parent Coaching, I strive to empower parents in this incredible journey.
To grow as a caregiver
I knew I needed to see the world through a wider lens. I spent time living and nannying internationally, including a transformative season in New Zealand. Immersing myself in different cultures taught me a vital lesson: there is no one "right" way to parent. By seeing how different cultures approach education and family life, I learned to be flexible, open-minded, and non-judgmental. Thanks to this experience, I bring that same openness and empathy to every family I support.
When I returned to the States
When I returned to the States, I wanted to deepen my ability to support families during their hardest moments. I earned my Master’s in Clinical Community Counseling at Johns Hopkins, where I served as President of the honor society and graduated with honors. I’m thankful for the time I spent at Johns Hopkins for showing me everything I was capable of achieving. It encouraged me further to bring my all to every family I support and showed me just how much that can be.
My clinical background
My clinical background allowed me to serve as a mental health counselor in Baltimore Public Schools and family clinics, focusing on child development and family support. I worked with children ages 5–17, navigating everything from school-day struggles to complex mental health diagnoses. Whether I’m supporting a child with sensory integration needs or helping parents create an action plan during a stressful transition, I approach every situation with the same philosophy: Every child is an individual, and every family deserves to feel heard.
My experience
My experience spans the entire developmental spectrum. In Boston, I served as the Director of a multi-age program, where I spent my mornings in the preschool classroom and my afternoons leading school-aged children. This allowed me to see the big picture of a child's day and empathize with how it could feel for them. I wasn't just watching kids; I was planning developmentally appropriate activities and building deep, lasting bonds with parents to ensure their children felt safe, seen, and celebrated.
Welcome to Trusted Parent Coaching!
Today, I continue to work with children in low-income communities because I believe every child deserves a stable, compassionate, and joyful role model. When you invite me into your family's life, you aren't just getting a caregiver with 25 years of experience. You are getting a partner who:
Sees the Individual:
I understand that strategies for child development that work for one child may not be effective for another.
Values the Team:
I am here to observe, model, and support you—never to judge.
Cares Deeply:
Whether it’s navigating developmental delays, difficult behaviors, or just the everyday chaos of life, I am here to provide support and guidance as your Trusted Parent Coach.
While my career has been broad, spanning different cultures, socioeconomic backgrounds, and roles within a child’s life, it has remained anchored in my deep appreciation for witnessing and celebrating child development as tiny humans become big humans. When we help children feel heard, support parents in feeling seen, and build a strong family support system, we can cure generational trauma and foster healthier communities. What you do as a parent truly matters. I hope you’ll invite me to be your Trusted Parent Coaching partner in providing the support you also deserve.
I will continue to pursue my deep passion for caregiving, supporting, and empathizing with children and parents, no matter where that journey takes me. My hope is to experience the joy of collaborating with you as we focus on child development and family support. My goal isn’t to dictate how to parent; it’s to join your team, understand your unique dynamics, learn what feels safe for you and your children, and support the distinctive rhythm of your family through Trusted Parent Coaching.
