Training Pathways for parents/carers

This is more than a parenting programme – it can be a pathway to self employment as a Parent Champion Coach.

Parent child relationships have always been challenging, but today increasing numbers of parents are struggling with their children. Our unique Parent Champion programme is designed to inspire and encourage parents who want to find a better way for themselves and their children.

By learning and practicing the family coaching skills we teach at all levels of the programme you will discover how to connect with your children in an exciting new way. You will create a relationship with them that empowers you all. You will discover how to unleash their innate potential. You will see how magic can happen.
Join us on the journey of a lifetime
The journey begins with you. As you embrace new perspectives, learn new skills and explore new possibilities you will feel yourself easily letting go of old beliefs and habits that have held you back. You may well experience a profound personal transformation.

You will share this journey with other like-minded parents, supporting and encouraging each other’s learning and experiences.

From day one you will start applying what you are learning to your relationship with your children. Your whole family dynamic will change as you empower your children to make better choices for themselves.

Community Sessions

A Community Session, often called a Family Coaching Café, is the introduction to our unique personal development approach to empowering parents and families. We create a welcoming, positive and supportive environment of friendliness, sharing and learning. Parents can relax, discuss their successes and challenges and explore new ideas.


Our new book "How to be a Parent Champion and add magic to your family" serves as a manual for these sessions. Every week parents have the opportunity to practice the new tools and techniques they are learning and, if they want to, their facilitation skills.

These sessions also provide an opportunity for graduates of the different levels of our Parent Champion programme to practice facilitation skills, refresh their learning and share their experiences.

On-site communities meet weekly and our on-line community monthly.
