Hi, I’m Myla.
I’m a PCI Certified Parent Educator and Coach, a former kindergarten teacher with a B.Ed. and M.Ed, a SSP Certified Provider and I’m also a parent, raising two very different kids of my own.
I have a child who has always had big behaviours, and I'm on the other side of the hard years of parenting where we were trying to figure out how to hold boundaries, help her, and enjoy parenting more.
And honestly? Parenting her cracked everything open. I'm so grateful she's my kid, because without her, I wouldn't be able to help you.
Because when I validated, she covered her ears.
When I said “hands are not for hitting.” She unravelled.
When I just needed her to cooperate, she couldn’t.
I realized that the parenting advice out there for deep feelers and kids with tantrums was so incomplete for kids like ours.
THE KEY TO ENJOYING PARENTING MORE IS FEELING CONFIDENT PARENTING THE CHILD IN FRONT OF YOU
You just need someone who gets it (LIKE REALLLY GETS IT) and can help you figure out what actually works for your child.
Over the past six years, I’ve helped thousands of parents move from frustration and confusion to clarity and connection.
I’ve seen what happens when a parent finally understands what’s really going on beneath the behavior and learns how to respond in a way that works for their child’s temperament, development, and nervous system.
And I’ve seen what happens when they start to feel proud of how they show up especially in the hard moments.
That’s the heart of my work.
To show you the path to help your child flourish, feel confident and know how to get their unique needs met, AND to help you have the best relationship with your child (and more peace in your home!).
Why I do this work
I believe there’s no one-size-fits-all parenting advice.
I believe parenting a kid with big behaviours is different, and you shouldn’t have to figure it out alone.
I believe your child can be held accountable and you stay connected at the same time.
I believe in Good Fit Parenting: the right strategy, at the right time, for the child in front of you.
I believe the sweetest moments of joy often come from feeling confident in parenting, and leaning into playfulness.
I believe you’re already an amazing parent. And with the right support? You can feel like one, too.
What I believe
A little more about me…
- Myla
I live in BC, Canada where I mountain bike, ski, hike and do yoga.
I laugh VERY loudly, and love a good kitchen dance party.
I use all the things I share in my own home, and as my daughters are out of their primary years, I can confidently say,
this stuff works!
I see most parenting advice stops after “do the thing” and I help parents answer the question, “what if I do the thing, and my kid kicks me in the shin?”
If you're here because parenting feels harder than you thought it would be you’re in the right place.
And I’m so glad you found your way here.
