When You Can’t Call Super Nanny

“I don’t want the government to give me health care, I want them to give me the Super Nanny!” says comedian Tim Hawkins  www.TimHawkins.net

Wouldn’t that be great? When the kids are whiny; Jo Frost shows up and tells them, “You have been very naughty. Go sit on the naughty stool. Straightaway!” When the kids refuse to go to bed, the Super Nanny waves her magic umbrella and the little rebels are instantly whisked off with smiles to sweet dreams. And when the husband and wife disagree on parenting, the Super Nanny demonstrates the negotiation skills of a diplomat as she ‘gets them on the same page’ with their parenting.

The Super Nanny - Jo Frost

Wouldn’t it be great to be able to call Super Nanny?

Well you may not want your family documented on national TV. But you still would like some expert help. How about someone coming to your home, but without the cameras and crew? Someone who can personally coach you on strategic discipline, instilling values, being consistent, and building a family mission? How about online video parent coaching?

I speak all over the country and I’m often asked, “How can we get coaching like you do in California?”  My answer has been, “I offer private online video coaching via Skype and iChat for $75 a session.” And lots of parents have done that. Here’s what some of them have said:

“We realized that we were too busy and so were our kids. Video coaching helped us focus, prioritize, relax, connect and build memories. Tim Smith helped us discover a reasonable pace for family life.” – Todd R.
“As young parents, we were clueless about parenting. What we had strong opinions about, we disagreed. Coach Tim got us on the same page with values, vision, and discipline. Now we parent together and with confidence.” – Brent and Paige

“We heard Tim Smith speak in New York about ‘kids being overscheduled and underconnected’. As two working professionals, we realized that he was speaking to us. We applied what we could from his Connecting With Your Kids book and seminar; but what helped us stay with it was the accountability and encouragement we get from our Video Coaching appointments. It’s like having him here in New York.” – Carlos and Felicia
“Parents Coach, Timothy Smith helped our family get through the teen years with our son. I don’t know that we would have made it without him. His de-parenting plan really worked. It prepared our son for college and it helped me to let go. Now I just check in as needed with a video session. It’s like a tune-up!”– Lori B.

But I have something better than Super Nanny coming to your house – FREE ONLINE PARENT COACHING!

I am introducing thirty-minute trials of online coaching Space is limited to the first twenty parents for each session. Online coaching is fun, interactive (with real-time chat and video) and personal. We are offering this free for a limited time because we want to introduce this new technology to hundreds of parents. We will be initially starting with faith-based coaching and then later launching general coaching (for all parents) in the spring.

Check out more info:    OnlineCoachingFlyer3

You can register now at www.faithathome.com/coaching/parent-coaching/ for the faith-based coaching. The general coaching is coming in the spring. I’ll blog about that as it approaches.

In the meantime, here’s your parenting tip: Focus on being clear, calm and consistent when giving your child guidance or discipline. Unfocused instructions frustrate kids. Anxious parents create anxious kids. Inconsistent parents make angry kids.

Your mantra, “I’m clear. calm, consistent . . . I’m clear, calm, consistent …”
