Parent Coaching
Helping children succeed...one adult at a time!
Do you find yourself feeling...
​
overwhelmed?
tired?
stressed?
unsure of how to best help your child?
​
You're not alone and it doesn't have to stay this way!
Parenting is one of the best AND hardest things we'll ever do! We weren't meant to take the journey alone! I am a wife, mom, and teacher at heart who is passionate about equipping parents with strategies and resources that you need to best support your children as you build a strong family!
​
Our job as parents can feel exhausting and overwhelming, especially when children all have unique needs and differences. As soon as we think we have one thing figured out it seems they need something different! It can leave us feeling lost and alone in the sea of information about all the best ways to parent and lead families.
​
Well, that’s where I come in! I believe that all children can be successful when they have strong adults actively walking with them through life.
Parent Coaching
After almost twenty years as a classroom teacher and over 16 years as a parent (in a blended family) I have tried and failed and tried again more times than I can count! I guarantee that at one point or another I've felt just like you do now! Through the years I've gathered many skills and strategies that can help empower YOU to be the best for your child. Let’s work together to build your confidence and ability so that you can build up your child and family! Partnering with me for one-on-one coaching will allow us to work together on your family’s specific needs and concerns.

Academic Support
A common need of parents is help in areas related to school and learning. Often parents can use extra support to understand how to help their children with managing school assignments, the best ways to engage with and support the work teachers are doing during the school day, and overall helping their child be successful in school. I can help you establish healthy habits and routines, equip you with knowledge about how to structure your interactions with teachers and school to best support what’s happening there, and teach you how to interact with your child in a positive way around responsibility and work at school.
​
Social-Emotional Support
​
Homeschool Support
I also work frequently with homeschool families to equip them with knowledge and strategies about how to engage children in learning through creative and unique ways. Establishing a solid routine/rhythm in your day is critical for children’s success and I can help you develop the perfect rhythm for your home and school!
Family Rhythms and Relationships
Supporting our children means becoming the best parents we can be and building a strong family. Let me help you foster strong family bonds through determining what’s most important to you for your family, building a family rhythm that supports this, and creating healthy relationships with your children individually and as a collective family.
​
Blended Family Support
As a mom in a blended family I know that there are many families with unique needs and concerns and I am honored to support you through those! I coach parents through co-parenting, step-parenting, relating to other family members, and advocating for their family in other settings (for instance, helping a co-parenting family interact productively with schools).

Real Families with Real Results
"I contacted Alysia regarding my son's attitude and struggling grades. She was encouraging and insightful, and the advice and resources she gave me have proven to be very helpful. I have seen improvements in my son's behavior, and I am connected with the right people to help him in school. I really appreciate Alysia's guidance!"
-Heather
"I highly recommend A Teacher's Heart Coaching. I worked with Alysia on two different occassions and was thrilled with the results of both engagements. Alysia came to our sessions with very well-thought suggestions based on what she knew from our initial exchanges, and she actively sought to understand my children and their needs so she could further develop her recommendations. During our first session, Alysia provided me with strategies for helping my second-grade son – a reluctant writer. Alysia gave me a number of great ideas to get him writing and working on story development. More recently I was looking for ways to keep my pre-kindergarten daughter engaged on virtual learning days. My daughter was eager for more than the school was sending, and we needed ways to keep her busy with two parents working from home and an older brother busy with his own virtual school day. Alysia put together a great collection of activities that would keep our active daughter engaged in learning, having fun and limiting her disruptions to others. It’s easy to be happy with the results when my kids are happy. My son has enjoyed having new ways to work on his writing, and my daughter loved every activity I introduced to her."
