Let go of feeling burnt out at the end of each day with your children, let go of questioning if you’re doing it right, and let go of searching the internet for surface-level hacks on how to solve your parenting challenges.
If you are ready to create a parenting journey where you feel confident, and connected with your child, one that truly aligns with the family life that you dream of,
Here’s where you start.
Yes, parenting is hard, but it doesn't have to feel this exhausting. It's time to tune out the noise and tune into what truly matters: getting clear about what's most important when parenting and discovering how you want to parent.
It’s time to move beyond quick-fixes, and general solutions from the internet. It’s time to create a solid foundation based on a holistic approach that truly meets the developmental needs of young children while strengthening family life and creating a happier home life for you and your children.
Think about it—your child only gets one childhood. Each moment, each decision, and each interaction shapes their experience of the world. You have the power to create a foundation from which your child can thrive, and grow into a confident, happy, and resilient adult.
Before you’ve even finished your morning coffee, you’re bombarded with advice and opinions from every direction—parenting podcasts, Instagram posts, your in-laws, unsolicited advice, unsolicited opinions from friends who don't have children yet, and even the next door neighbor.
It's easy to feel lost in this sea of information, trying to piece together a parenting approach that works for you. Maybe you’ve implemented things based on what you think you should do, or followed trending parenting tips, or attempted to create an ideal family life based on someone else's standards.
In Part One of The Little Book of Parenting, we dive into the heart of what it means to truly nurture your child. You’ll explore how your own nature shapes the way you parent, and how embracing unconditional love can transform your relationship with your child. This section is all about building your child’s confidence
Part Two is all about creating the strong, supportive foundation that your child needs to grow and thrive. We’ll talk about how to set up nurturing rhythms that make life more grounded and secure, from bedtime routines to mealtime rituals. You’ll find gentle, practical tips for helping your child sleep better, encouraging healthy eating habits, and making playtime magical. Plus, you’ll learn how to bring more nature into your family’s life and intentionally shape a family culture that reflects your values.
In this part, we’ll dive into the heart of what it means to truly support your child’s overall well-being. From understanding their unique temperament to setting loving boundaries, this section is all about nurturing a healthy, trusting, and emotionally secure relationship with your child. We’ll explore their physical and emotional well-being and what supports this so they can thrive.

early childhood and parenting educator and author of You Are Your Child's First Teacher
I have guided hundreds of families in parenting, and I've seen the same struggles time and time again: the daily challenges, overwhelm, self-doubt, and most of all, the desire to raise happy, resilient children in a joyful, harmonious home. The Little Book of Parenting is my answer to these challenges.
Over 30 years ago when I had my first child, I knew I wanted to parent differently than I had been parented.
From the very first Waldorf parent-child class that I enrolled in with my son, I was immediately drawn to the philosophy and immersed myself in the community.
I learned a great deal in these early years parenting my children and this transformative experience allowed me to parent my children with greater consciousness, connection, understanding, and kindness.
Parenting no longer felt draining or challenging as I embraced the principles I learned from Waldorf to create harmonious and joy-filled days with my little ones.
My Waldorf teaching journey began at a Waldorf school in southern California where I found immense joy in teaching parent-child classes for a few years.
Shortly after I had my third child, my family moved to Vancouver, Canada where I continued to teach parents of young children in my home based parent-child program while at the same time I opened a Waldorf inspired store that I ran as the sole owner.
5 years later, my family moved to Pennsylvania and my journey led me to become a lead teacher at a Waldorf school where all three of my children attended.
After completing numerous early childhood trainings, attending countless workshops and conferences, and leading in the classroom for over 15 year, combined with the joyful experience of raising my own children, I felt called to support parents in a different way and this led to the creation of We Nurture Collective.
