Celia has been working in the education and outdoor sector for over 24 years. Over this time she has worked with children of all ages and stages and has taken a special interest in helping parents to understand how children grow and develop, how to stay connected through challenging behaviours and to advocate for their children in the current education system. 

Celia believes that everyone has the potential to shine and wants to help parents shine a light on themselves and their children. Parenting is not easy and with some practical support, tools and mindset shifting, Celia will help you make that 1-degree shift that is needed, to make the changes to connect deeper with your children and yourself as a parent.

CELIA’S BACKGROUND

Celia originally studied Outdoor Education which gave her both practical application of working with students and importantly the theory to back it up. Over 24 years of working with students from high school, primary school and pre-school children, this has given her a great understanding of child development and challenging behaviours.

Over this time Celia has coached parents and colleagues informally, discovering that it came naturally for her to coach and help others.

To take the next step, Celia has been working towards deepening her knowledge and skills in coaching over the last year and a half.

She has completed a certificate in breakthrough life coaching and abundance coaching, worked with a variety of clients as part of her training and is nearly finished a year-long Peaceful Parenting Instructor Training course through the Peaceful Parent Institute here in New Zealand.

MESSAGE FROM CELIA

As your coach, I am committed to you and your family’s journey. I will be present and curious giving you my full attention.

I ask the hard questions and challenge you with kindness and free from judgment. I am here to guide you to courageously move forward in your parenting journey and help you shine.

TESTIMONIAL

Celia is amazing. She creates a safe place to support and nurture you through your own journey as a parent. She has great strategies and tools for delving into the experience. I always felt like I was moving at my pace and in control of the process. Her insights and reflections reveal her presence as a coach which felt like she was fully engaged in the process as well. I can highly recommend Celia as a parent coach. Thank you so much.
