What
Gen 1 Parenting
is all about

Perfect parents don't exist.
But you can be the parent that you want to be & that your child needs you to be.
​
At Gen1 Parenting, we understand that parenting is tough, and we believe that every parent deserves the right support to help their family not just get by, but truly thrive. Many parents feel like they’ve tried everything, but nothing seems to work and are left feeling stuck in the chaos. The truth is, without a deeper understanding of how kids think, feel, and behave, the tips and tricks rarely stick. That's why we equip you with both meaningful insight into your child's development and practical tools, so you can make lasting changes that actually work—and feel confident while enjoying the journey with your kids.
Help us help more families
​
Not every parent can afford coaching or classes—but that shouldn’t mean they go without support. Through our 501(c)(3) nonprofit, Gen One Parenting, we offer sliding-scale services so every parent has the ability to access the tools and encouragement they need.
Join us in equipping parents and strengthening families—one home at a time.
