Early Parenting Consults, Workshops + Groups
with Katie DaMota, MAS, LC
My passion is helping you connect with your internal parenting compass. We'll work together to identify solutions rooted in your values, hopes, and expectations. This often involves reframing challenges, practicing radical acceptance, and always keeping the developmental needs of your child and the well-being of everyone in mind.
The Embracing Parenting weekly virtual classes provide a safe and nurturing space to navigate the profound transformation of parenthood. Where we understand the complexities of parenting decisions and offer a platform to explore various approaches, particularly responsive, respectful, and conscious parenting.
The Workshops offer age-specific parenting tools so you can confidently meet your parenting goals.
