As my first child grew, I quickly realized that real life is much more complex than any textbook could prepare you for. Then, with the arrival of my second child, things became even more challenging. It wasn't just about parenting anymore, but also about finding a balance between my demanding career and family life.
It was a constant struggle to dedicate quality time to my children while fulfilling my professional commitments. I also realized that the same parenting tools and strategies didn't work for both.
I wanted to be a good mom, the ones who seemed to have it all, able to handle tantrums, navigate the chaos, and seamlessly balance work and family life. Deep down, what I truly desired was a strong bond with my kids—a harmonious relationship where we all felt loved and respected.
Do you feel overwhelmed and stressed by the demands of parenting
You feel frustrated and and yell more often than you want to.
Do you struggle to communicate effectively with your kids.
Do you doubt your parenting skills and feel uncertain about your decisions
You know that something has to change and desire for support, but don't know how.
Do you feel confused about what strategies to follow.
You are not alone . . . I've been there and can relate.
I developed a set of tools to help you navigate the challenges of parenting with ease.
A turning point came during a family moment when one of my kids became upset, and despite my efforts, things worsened.
My frustration grew as I realized that my efforts to comfort him weren’t working—they were only making things worse. In that moment, the weight of my own helplessness crashed over me.
I wasn’t connecting with him at all. Instead, I was reacting, stuck in a loop of frustration and control, and it became painfully clear that something in my approach had to change—completely.
I felt stuck, knowing that my parenting approach wasn’t working, but unsure of how to change.
I embraced positive parenting, learning empathy, communication, and emotional regulation to connect better with my children.
The journey wasn’t easy. Old habits of frustration and yelling were hard to break, and there were moments when I doubted whether this new approach would work.
After months of working through these new techniques and building emotional connections, I noticed a dramatic shift in our home. My children started to open up more, their emotional outbursts became less frequent, and I was able to approach tense situations with greater calm and patience.
Our family dynamic improved, with more laughter, joy, and understanding filling our days. I no longer felt like I was battling with them; instead, we were working together to navigate the challenges of everyday life.
This journey completely transformed me as a parent. I no longer react out of frustration or try to control situations.
This shift not only strengthened my relationship with my children but also deepened my understanding of myself as a parent. Today, I approach parenting with a sense of calm and confidence, knowing that we are on this journey together, learning and growing every step of the way.

'I feel more connected to my children'
I am a full time working mom of 2 and in the beginning of my career, so I was focused on my career more and was able to pay little attention to my kids. I realized that how disconnected I am with my children and needed help. That’s when I found Sarita. She was so amazing and guided me in right direction. She provided me with the tools and support that I needed to navigate those obstacles.
From our very first session, it was clear that she genuinely cared about our well-being. Sarita listened attentively to our concerns and tailored strategies specifically for our family's unique dynamics. With her guidance, I learned effective communication techniques, conflict resolution skills, and ways to strengthen our bond as a family.
The changes we've seen in our day-to-day interactions are remarkable. I now able to approach challenges with a sense of unity and understanding. The positive impact Sarita has had on our lives is immeasurable, and we are incredibly grateful for her expertise.
