Book description
Do you wish your child had more confidence?
Would you like to help them handle problems better at school or
at home?
Would you like to give your child the life skills to thrive in
the face of change and challenge?
Naomi Richards, the UK's leading kids coach, has been working with
children and their parents for 8 years. Just as adults benefit from a
life coach or a mentor at work, so too can children. By being your
child's life coach you can help your child handle challenges such as
making and keeping friends, dealing with bullying or peer pressure,
sibling rivalry, getting homework done or dealing with a major change,
such as moving schools or parents separating.
In The Parents' Toolkit Naomi shares the key life tools she
uses and teaches so that you can help your child successfully navigate
childhood challenges and grow up into a happy, confident and resilient
young adult. Her coaching tools include teaching your child positive
self-talk, simple problem-solving techniques to encourage your child
to arrive at the right solution to an issue, and specific advice for
you as a parent to hone your own listening and coaching skills.
Aimed at parents with children aged 5+, The Parents' Toolkit
includes real-life examples and suggestions as to what to actually say
when coaching your child. Essential advice for all parents wanting to
give their children the best start in life.
