You’ve been told that it takes a village to raise a child.

But now the kids are here and the village is not.

Let's create your support circle together.

​​

The 16-Week Aware Parenting Support Circle is here to:

• Create a community of support both on and offline for parents like you practicing Aware Parenting

• Provide a deep, safe and connected space for sharing and listening - in this space you can express how parenting really is for you without fear of judgement

• Provide Aware Parenting guidance, support and suggestions - empowering you to navigate those tricky parenting moments in the short-term and as your child/ren grow

 

What will this support look like?

Who is it for?

• You are caring for a child/ren mainly aged between 0-9 years old

• Whether you're just dipping your toes into Aware Parenting or you've been at it for years, you're so welcome here

• You want a sense of community and village-like support around you - a safe space to be authentic and honest about how parenting is for you, challenges arising, things you're unsure about and things you want to celebrate. ALL of you is welcome. There is no right or wrong way to be or feel or parent

• You want to feel deeply heard, supported and held during your parenting journey

• You want some practical tools and strategies for tricky parenting moments

• Aware Parenting is perhaps different from how you were raised and you need support in working through your own childhood experiences or navigating what comes up for you in parenting

​

 Feedback from previous participants: 

• ​I gained the most from... "Hearing your stories and examples & having a listening partner." "The journaling, the sharing, and the content. Actually everything!" "I enjoyed the practical tools and the opportunity to share."

• The question support was... "Outstanding. Compassionate and detailed and prompt." "It was incredible Kirsty. So supportive. I felt held the entire time, as I could tend to that space and then felt heard, witnessed and seen."

• Was it value for money? "Yes. It felt important to me to ask questions in between in order to make the most of the opportunity and your wisdom and get the ongoing support. This felt like a really important part of the whole process for me..." "Yes. I think the sessions were so well prepared, thoughtful, full of heart, and full of really important content...The support in between sessions was priceless."

​

Why do this with me?​

I'm Kirsty, and I've been walking this path alongside you... I've followed Aware Parenting since my daughter was 9 months old (now almost 9 years old), and practiced it with my son since he was born (now 6 years old). So I know what it's like to be in the trenches with two young children - to want to break patterns and heal intergenerational trauma, to do things differently to everyone around you. I know the pain of knowing better but not always being able to do better because your conditioning is so strong. I know the juggle of parenting, homeschooling, work, extended family - and the longing for more support. I'm right here with you! 

I've been supporting parents through postpartum education, birth debriefing and Aware Parenting for the past 6 years - working with couples, solo parents, Mothers, Fathers, and even Nanas! I also have a background in Learning and Development, so the content is designed with intention and for maximum impact. But more than that - I've lived this, I'm still living this, and I'm here to walk beside you with deep understanding and practical support.
