So much of supporting children’s behaviour isn’t about getting it right in the moment, it’s about what’s happening around that.

When parents are exhausted, self-critical, or carrying too much alone, it becomes much harder to pause, hold boundaries, and respond the way they want to.

Support the parent, and everything else becomes more possible.

🤍 I’m Amy, a coaching psychologist supporting mums to feel more grounded and confident when parenting feels hard.

This time of year can feel especially heavy for parents.

You’re coming off the back of weeks of holding everything together: emotionally, practically, mentally and then suddenly there’s pressure to reset, regulate, and “get back into routine”.

When children struggle with transitions, it often lands harder when you’re already depleted.

And that’s usually when the self-doubt creeps in.
Not because you’re doing anything wrong
but because uncertainty gets mistaken for failure.

This is something I see again and again where trying our best during a hard time turns into self-criticism and blame.

If this week feels messy, emotional, or harder than you expected you are not failing.
You are responding to a demanding role, in time that has demanded a lot from you.

Be gentle with yourself.

I asked in my stories earlier, what’s one small way your caring for yourself today/this week?

Regulation isn’t something you can just switch on in the middle of a meltdown.

It’s built slowly, outside the hard moments, through awareness, safety, and realistic expectations.

There’s so much pressure to just cope while juggling everything life throws at us
but things can feel different.
Regulation can be developed, parenting can feel easier and you can feel steadier,
and you don’t have to do it all on your own.

Save this for the moments it feels heavy.

If you’d like more support building regulation in a realistic, compassionate way, comment guide and I’ll send you my free guide 🤍

It is easy to over commit and take on too much. Trying to be the best Mama, partner, friend, employee, sibling. As well as keep the house clean, find the time and energy to exercise and eat healthily and have time to see friends and have hobbies!

Remember “you can do anything, but you can’t do everything” - David Allen

Slow down Mama and ask yourself, is what your asking of yourself realistic? How important is this to me right now?

✨ A new chapter for Nurturing Minds ✨

When I first started Nurturing Minds, it was all about creating a safe, supportive space for parents and families. That work will always remain at the heart of what I do to create a better future for our children 💛

But over the last few years I’ve grown, my clients have grown, and my practice has naturally grown too.

Today, I’m stepping into this new chapter as a Coaching Psychologist, bringing together my personal journey, my professional training, and the lessons I’ve learned from walking alongside so many of you already.

What does that mean? It means I get to keep doing the work I love, helping people move through challenges, build confidence, and create changes that ripple into their lives, their families, and their work. And it also means I can now offer more: support for individuals, for professionals working with children and families, and for organisations who want to invest in wellbeing.

This is just the beginning. Thank you for being here and for being part of the journey so far I can’t wait to share what’s to come. ✨

🌊 Free Walk & Talk - This Friday 🌊

Sometimes you just need to get out of the house, breathe some fresh air and be around others who truly see you.

If you’re craving connection, conversation or just a space to pause, come and join me this Friday, 18th July at 11am for a relaxed walk with other Mums.

We’ll walk for around an hour at a steady pace (pushchair friendly route) and for those who fancy it we can grab a coffee afterwards at a local cafe.

This isn’t a coaching session, there’s nothing to prepare just come as you are. Tired eyes, busy minds, little ones in tow. All are welcome here.

📆 Friday 18th July
⏰ 11 am

For more information on location please click the link in my bio and let me know your coming by signing up so I know who to wait for on Friday!

Please share with your Mama friends 💛
