Parenting 3.0 Focuses on Five Key Essentials

We are responsible for meeting the psychological needs and supporting the development of our kids

Parenting 3.0, at its core is focused around what our children need to mature into a confident, resilient and emotionally intelligent adult. As parents, we nourish the psychological roots to support the self-actualization and holistic well-being of the child. This means that we provide the nutrients for them to fulfill their potential.

Healthy and secure attachment is at the core of everything

Parents shift from the role of parenting into relational parenting, informed by developmental psychology. Facilitating a secure attachment is paramount. We understand that behavioral management provides short term results but connection is overall more effective for the long run.

 Our kids thrive in growth hierarchies and parents need the power to parent

​Our children need a uni-directional relationship between parent (alpha) and child (dependent) with the blend of the conscious use of power and empathy. This is neither permissive nor dominant, rather the thoughtful use of limits and boundaries, the intention of taking responsibility for our children's needs, and an appreciation for growth-oriented, healthy hierarchy.

​Healthy brain development and emotional intelligence are critical for overall well-being

Understanding how the brain and nervous systems develop and how to cultivate emotional intelligence is critically important so we can facilitate healthy development. Our kids’ ability to regulate their nervous system and develop executive functioning is very important for their immediate and long term well-being.

Parents heal their childhood hurts so they can be present, responsive and available for connection

In order to do this, we do our own "inner work" to better understand ourselves, heal our childhood hurts, metabolize our pasts, discharge our inner emotional charge, regulate our nervous systems, and become more self-aware, mindful and present. We can learn how to hold space for our triggers, inquire into the roots of the triggers to heal them, and choose to respond rather than react on autopilot. This is not a "to do" instead it's a way of living - the journey to parent from our hearts rather than our hurts.
