I help homeschool parents of kids with big behaviors and emotions create calmer days, real cooperation, and the confidence to lead their child without yelling, punishment, or reward systems that keep your kid stuck in behavior.

You didn’t pull your child out of school for no reason.

  • constantly in trouble
  • struggling socially
  • labeled “defiant,” “disruptive,” or “too much”
  • misunderstood by teachers who didn’t know what to do

And you thought…  “They just need something different.”

So you chose homeschooling.

  • They still push back on everything
  • They melt down over small things
  • They fight you on school, routines, and expectations
  • They struggle in co-ops, classes, or group settings
  • Nothing seems to “stick”, not consequences, not rewards, not charts

And you’re left wondering:

“Why is this still so hard… even at home?”


THE REAL PROBLEM

Contrary to popular belief,

This isn’t a homeschooling problem.

It’s not because your child is “bad,” “manipulative,” or “too strong-willed.”

And it’s not because you “don’t know how to do this.”


It’s because traditional parenting and discipline don’t work for your child.

So you end up stuck between:

  • being too strict → which leads to power struggles
  • being too flexible → which leads to chaos
  • Or doubting your choice to homeschool altogether


And that leaves you feeling helpless because you KNOW your child just needs something that works for them. 

You don’t need:

stricter discipline

better rewards

more curriculum

You need to understand:

what’s driving your child’s behavior

how their brain and nervous system actually work

how to lead them in a way they can respond to

That’s where everything changes.

Hi, I’m Amy.


I’m a certified parent coach, former special educator, and homeschool parent.


I help homeschool parents of school-age children whose big behaviors don’t respond to traditional schooling or discipline.



The ones who feel defeated by constant meltdowns, defiance, and the feeling that nothing works.


  • With my background in special education, I’ve spent over 15 years working with the exact kids who 
  • don’t respond to traditional discipline
  • struggle behaviorally and socially
  • are misunderstood or labeled as “difficult” 


And as an active homeschool parent myself, I work with you to create calmer days, real cooperation, and the confidence to lead your child through big emotions and behaviors by focusing on

  • connection
  • nervous system regulation
  • and the root of behavior.


Because your child doesn’t need harsher discipline.

They need a parent who knows how to reach them.

You chose homeschooling because you knew your child needed something different.


You were right. But different schooling alone isn’t enough.


You need a different way to parent this child. And you don’t have to figure that out alone.


FAQS

Here are answers to some common questions. 

  • What is a coaching session like?

    A coaching session is a focused, supportive conversation where we work together to address a specific parenting challenge you're facing.


     You bring the questions, stories, or struggles you're dealing with—and I help you uncover what's driving the behavior, what your child needs, and what tools you can use to respond with clarity and connection.


    By the end of each session, you’ll walk away with:


    • A deeper understanding of what’s really going on beneath the surface
    • Clear steps you can take to shift your child’s behavior
    • Language, strategies, and mindset support you can use immediately

    Sessions can be done via phone call or Google meet. 


  • What is the Transformational Parenting Program (TPP)?

    The TPP is your go-to roadmap for parenting with clarity, confidence, and connection. It guides you step-by-step through the heart of this work—so you’re not just reacting to behavior but understanding it, addressing it at the root, and showing up with calm authority.


    Inside the program, you’ll get:


    • Lifetime access to expert-led video content that covers everything from emotional regulation to handling defiance, tantrums, and more—so you're never left wondering what to do next.
    • Printable tools and parenting education resources to help you understand your child’s behavior, meet their emotional needs, and stay grounded through tough moments.
    • Child development education to help you understand what your child actually needs in each stage—so you can support their emotions in a way that feels safe and grounded.
    • Guided reflections that help you connect your parenting patterns to your own experiences growing up—and gently walk you through how to break generational cycles with awareness and grace.
    • Real-life tools and application support that help you turn all that insight into action in your real family, with your unique child.



  • How do I use the Transformational Parenting Program (TPP) that comes with Transform?

    Once you log in, you’ll get access to videos, articles, printable resources, and a workbook with guided reflections. While there’s a lot available, the workbook and reflections are the most important pieces for your growth and our sessions together.

    The workbook is your personal roadmap. With it you will break old patterns, understand your child’s development, and learn how to respond with calm, confident leadership. The reflections at the end of each lesson are where the real transformation happens. That’s where you start connecting the dots between your past, your emotions, and how you show up as a parent today.

    When you come to sessions with those insights already forming, we can dive straight into applying what you’ve learned to your real-life parenting challenges so you’ll see faster, deeper results.

    I’ll guide you on exactly what section to focus on per session, so you’ll always know what’s next.


  • What if I don’t get my TPP journaling done in time for my session?

    Show up anyways! The TPP weeks are divided in a way that so long as you do one journaling segment every other week, you will finish within the 6 months.


    And if you still don’t finish the TPP within 6 months, don’t stress. It’s yours forever to access at any time.


  • Why should I do the TPP journaling?

    Describe the item or answer the question so that site visitors who are interested get more information. You can emphasize this text with bullets, italics or bold, and add links.

  • How can I schedule sessions to work for me?

    I recommend scheduling sessions bi-weekly at minimum (twice a month for 6 months) to remain consistent and still get the most benefit from the program.


    Want sessions more frequently? No problem! Schedule a session weekly as needed. 

    I’ve had some families stretch the service over the full 6 months, and some buckle down and take just 3 months. Neither is wrong- just whatever works for your life! 


  • What is Voxer?

    Voxer is a free walkie-talkie style app that lets us send voice and text messages back and forth throughout the week.


     It’s perfect for real-time support, quick questions, and processing through challenges that come up between sessions.


     It’s like having a coach in your pocket—without having to schedule a Zoom call every time you need help.

  • How do I reserve funds with the scholarship for this service?

    Click the button above that says “Send Me Details to Reserve funds” and you’ll receive a detailed email with the exact steps you need to secure your scholarship.


  • What if I want to continue sessions at the end of the program?

    There are 3 options to continue sessions at the end of the program:


    • Add additional months to your current program (great if you're still working through the TPP or want full support)
    • Switch to Refresh (ideal if you’ve completed Transform and want continued accountability and coaching)
    • Monthly Reset (perfect for maintaining progress with one session per month and weekly Voxer check-ins)

  • Is there a coach/client agreement?

    Yes. All coaching clients receive a written agreement before we begin (via email.)


    This agreement outlines the scope of the program, payment terms, the responsibilities of both coach and client, session scheduling, cancellation policies, and other important expectations that support a respectful and effective coaching relationship.


    It’s designed to protect the client/coach relationship, create clarity, and make sure we're on the same page as we begin this work together.


  • Is there a refund policy?

    Because this work is parent-centered and results depend on your follow-through, I don’t offer refunds for any services.


    I show up fully for you—with guidance, strategies, and a proven framework—but I can’t control whether you use the tools, complete the journaling, or commit to the changes.


    Your growth depends on your effort, not just the content.


     All sales are final to honor the commitment this process requires—and the change you’re here to create.

  • How to pay via ACH (fee-free)
