Helping navigate the challenges of parenthood with confidence, presence, & curiosity.

THE PARENTING DILEMMA

PARENTING TODAY FEELS HARDER THAN EVER—NOT BECAUSE WE’RE BROKEN OR FAILING, BUT BECAUSE WE’RE PARENTING IN CONDITIONS THAT CONSTANTLY PUSH US TOWARD BURNOUT, SHAME, AND DISCONNECTION. WE’RE RAISING CHILDREN IN A WORLD FULL OF CONFLICTING ADVICE, ENDLESS “EXPERT” OPINIONS, AND SOCIAL MEDIA SCROLLS. THERE’S NO SHORTAGE OF INFORMATION, BUT THERE’S A DEEP SHORTAGE OF REAL, HUMAN SUPPORT. THE RESULT? PARENTS ARE BURNTOUT, ANXIOUS, AND CONSTANTLY SECOND-GUESSING THEMSELVES.

Behind the Bedtime Routines

Hello, I am

Samantha

I used to feel so stuck. The bad days outweighed the good, and no matter how many books or blogs I read, nothing seemed to give me real answers about parenting, just more confusion. One day (thank you, algorithm), a parenting coach training ad popped up on my feed. I realized I could not only support my own family, but help other parents as well. I'm a mom of three, and someone who believes deeply in showing up for your child and yourself. My work is rooted in nervous system science, attachment, and the belief that parenting is about presence, curiosity, and collaboration.

PARENTING HAS EVOLVED THROUGH GENERATIONS & Yours CAN Too

PARENTING HAS EVOLVED THROUGH GENERATIONS & Yours CAN Too

HELD & HEARD exists because you were never meant to figure this all out alone. As a parenting coach, I help you tune out the noise and tune into what actually matters: your connection with your child, your own emotional regulation, and your ability to parent with confidence and clarity. Together, we’ll explore practical tools, make space for healing, and build a rhythm that works for your family—not someone else’s idea of success.

You don’t need a script. You don’t need to get it “right” every time. You just need the support to lead with presence, awareness, and trust in yourself. You don’t have to carry it all alone. You get to feel Held and Heard.
