Get to know me…

Welcome to a space where parenting meets empowerment. I’m Vicki Jo, your dedicated parenting coach, committed to guiding you through the beautiful complexities of raising confident, resilient children while nurturing your own well-being.

For the past 25 years, my passion has been dedicated to understanding and nurturing children and families. My diverse professional path has provided me with an unparalleled perspective on early childhood development. From the preschool classroom to the intimate setting of home childcare, and through the complex world of child welfare, foster, and adoption work, I've witnessed firsthand the incredible journey of raising little ones. My experience also includes raising 5 children in our own blended family and working in the ABA field with autistic children, further deepening my understanding of unique developmental needs.

As a parenting coach, I specialize in supporting parents with children of any age. My approach is built on providing you with profound insight into your child's world, offering unwavering support through every developmental stage, and fostering the accountability needed to implement effective, positive parenting strategies.  I'm here to equip you with the tools and confidence to celebrate milestones, coparent effectively, navigate tantrums, and build a strong, loving foundation for your family. Let’s embark on this rewarding journey together!
