A Functional Approach to Parenting & Health.
A Truly Functional Approach to Parenting & Health Within The Home.
Certified Parenting Coach
Functional Medicine Consultant
Nurse Practitioner
In a nutshell:
I help moms with intense children overcome serious parenting struggles, so they can restore health within themselves & peace within their homes.
Are you emotionally & physically drained from parenting struggles & chaos?
Are you falling behind at work because parenting is taking all you've got?
Is your own health suffering, because you have nothing left over to give?
Are you worried you are "damaging" your child, or not meeting their needs?
Is it hard to relate to friends & family because they "just don't get your child"?
Are you desperate for more connection & joy with your child?
You're Not Alone!
Conventional parenting has taught us to “discipline”, demand respect, and teach through lecturing and giving consequences. I don’t know about you, but this way of parenting always caused further escalation in my home, especially with my intense kids.
Parenting does not have to be a constant battle. There is a different approach that lends mutual respect, kindness, love and connection - that builds strong relationships while teaching our children emotional regulation to confidently navigate this ever-changing world.

Hi, I’m Jennifer -
Functional parenting coach
I’m a certified Nurtured Heart Approach (NHA) advanced trainer, functional medicine consultant, nurse practitioner, spouse, sister, daughter and friend. Of all the hats I wear, being a mom is the one that has pushed me to explore how to be the best version of myself.
I used to doubt my abilities as a parent - I knew that I yelled too much, sometimes even grabbed my children when I was frustrated, argued with them and gave lectures. I didn’t grow up with the greatest parenting myself so I really didn’t have any helpful role modeling to base my own parenting on. I researched parenting approaches via countless podcasts, trainings, books, even working with a few parenting coaches that helped because I had one-on-one support, but… something was still missing. I was ready to throw the towel in right before I found the Nurtured Heart Approach (NHA). I began to finally see a palpable shift in my own self and then in my home.
Using the Nurtured Heart Approach with myself, my spouse, and my children has created an incredible shift in my home from one of chaos to peace and calm.

When I first reached out to Jennifer, I wasn't sure what to expect, but I'm so glad I did! My son struggles with ADHD symptoms and I had been getting more & more notes home from school, while also struggling at home. Every morning before school felt like an uphill battle, full of yelling + nagging.
The approach Jennifer taught me brought structure (and peace) to our home, while increasing my confidence in my parenting choices. She taught me how to reconnect with my son & build his confidence, while also holding firm boundaries. This program has truly changed the trajectory of our relationship, and it's one of the best investments I've made in years.
Such a Difference!

“Within the first 20 minutes of our coaching session, I had more ‘a-ha’ moments & connections about my parenting approach than all of the books and articles I have read over the years. Jennifer’s coaching method has been pivotal to bringing peace into our interactions as a family. Her coaching style is supportive, loving & clear. "
