Creating opportunities for kids to discover their best

I am a Life Coach for Kids, offering programs, materials, and support that parents can use to help their children discover interests, set goals and intentions, and most importantly have fun in the process. I am passionate about learning, growth mindset, nature, and emotional wellness.

I worked as an educational consultant for the Ottawa Catholic School Board before starting my family. I live in Ottawa with my husband and our two daughters, who are a joy to homeschool. We also have two cats and a dog who provide extra love to our already-happy home.
