Find Peace,

Confidence & Unconditional Connection

Whether you need support with a specific challenge, you want to get your family off to the right start, or you’re completely overwhelmed and frustrated, you’ve come to the right place.

Am I doing this right?

Through participating in my parent coaching program, you will begin to see immediate positive changes in your family dynamic and wake up each morning knowing that you have the tools to parent confidently. You will feel so much more connection and more peace.

I have a proven system that helps the parent/caregiver who:

🔴 Is exhausted from not being on the same page as their parenting partner

🔴 Has read all the books and listened to all the podcasts but something still isn’t working

🔴 Feels like their child is running the show

🔴 Wants to stop yelling

🔴 Wants to break negative generational cycles and not repeat the same mistakes of their own parents

🔴 Is worried about raising an “entitled brat”, "a “monster”, a “jerk” or an “ungrateful” child

🔴 Is craving less stress and more ease

🔴 Is tired of their child not listening and not cooperating

🔴 Wants to feel confident in their parenting

🔴 Feels overwhelmed and unimportant

🔴 Wants to learn how to communicate with and set loving limits for toddlers

🎉100% of my clients feel more confidence, more connection, and more patience after completing my program.🎉

“Before this program, I was intimidated by conflict between my kids, our relationship was fragmented, my relationship with my partner was highly divisive - “good cop vs. bad cop” - and my parenting was full of inherited dysfunctional actions. Now, my family is kind to each other, there’s hog pile laughter on lazy Sunday mornings, prolonged moments of harmony, and my relationship with my kids is more authentic. Honestly, I would’ve given up had it not been for the encouragement of Amanda. She makes the most herculean of tasks seem possible. “

What is an unconditional connection?

A bond between a parent and child free of blame, shame, guilt, labels, and punishment. It’s a relationship absent from the need to perform or be perfect in order to be loved. Curiosity, empathy and reflection are at the core, leading our children to remain connected with us through all of life’s stages and to develop in the healthiest way possible.

“They just don’t listen! I feel so tired and disrespected."
"No one told me it would be like this."
"How do I get my child to just stay in their room at night?!"

I know you’re doing your very best.

So many loving parents and teachers put so much pressure on themselves to get it right. To the outside world, it may seem like they have it all together, but inside their home, everything is awry. They are overwhelmed and craving more peace. They love their kids so much and want to feel connected to them, but instead they feel hurt, angry and confused. I recognize that parenting is hard, and we’re all just doing our best, but that sometimes we all just need support and additional tools to create the family we deeply desire to have.

The transformation that awaits you…

  • You’ll finally be able to know you’re “doing it right”.

  • Your relationship with your kids will feel fun, connected, and full of understanding.

  • The yelling will subside.

  • Your child(ren) will be less anxious, and less likely to end up with depression.

  • Your child(ren) will feel your love and respect, and will be more willing to cooperate with your requests.

  • In couples coaching, you will become more aligned in your parenting styles.

  • and so much more!

With a little support, you CAN have the family you long for! There’s always hope. That’s where I come in.

Hi! I’m Amanda.

I’m a certified parent coach with the Jai Institute for Parenting, a mama to a 4-year old boy, a 1-year-old girl, and married to the love of my life. I’m so glad you’re here!

My parent coaching program is proven and effective because it is supported by decades of scientific research.

I’m certified and practiced in the most recent brain science, nervous system science, secure attachment science, respectful and playful parenting techniques, nonviolent communication, and I hold a trauma-informed lens.

I founded Unconditional Connections after going through my own self-healing journey. My deepest desire in life is to create a relationship with my children that is not based on their behavior being perfect or “easy”. Rather, my goal is that they feel loved unconditionally so our connection lasts a lifetime. With the help of the skills I’ve learned through the Jai Institute for Parenting, I am confident we are creating that connection.

And I’m just like you — an imperfect parent who deeply loves her imperfect children. I’m someone who will truly get you and who understands perfection is impossible.

How is what I do different?

Coaching is different from therapy, although it often FEELS like therapy!

It’s also different from a class or an online course.

One of my clients put it this way…

“Amanda made the content, which could otherwise have felt like reading a self-help book REAL. I thought coaching was more like guided reading (like a college class) or like therapy. This was collaborative in a way I didn’t anticipate. Amanda responded to our hard work on solo journaling every week, she walked us through tough stuff, and molded herself around our needs as they emerged on each call. Honestly, this is the single most meaningful thing I’ve done for my relationships with my partner and children since becoming a parent and it’s all thanks to Amanda, who was there for me from the very first moment of our very first phone call.”
