Our Mission: To enable parents to support their children to lead happy healthy lives and grow into respectful, socially and emotionally responsible adults.

“Other things may change us but you start and end with family”                            Anthony Brandt

Francine and Lesley have a wealth of relevant experience in working with families, children and adults. They believe confident connected parenting leads to happy, motivated children helping families getting the best out of life.

They are compassionate, respectful qualified facilitators who share their knowledge with clarity, sensitivity and energy mixed with an infectious sense of fun.

“As a parent I realised life can be a bit like a rollercoaster – the highs and the lows and never knowing quite what’s around the next corner! By bringing all our personal parenting experience and our professional knowledge together to develop our courses, Francine and I intend  to work in the best way we can to offer parents tools to inspire and encourage all family members to reach their full potential.”
