Empowered Parenting

An Aware Parenting Journey for Ages 1–6

A trauma-informed, nervous-system-based approach to help you navigate the early years with confidence, compassion, and deep connection—so you can parent with more ease and less overwhelm.

What is it?

Empowered Parenting is more than just a course — it’s a supportive, heart-centred space where you’ll gain the insights, tools, and confidence to navigate the ups and downs of parenting with clarity and ease.


We’ll dive into the tender early years together, helping you understand the why behind your child’s behaviours, so you can respond in helpful ways, instead of frustration or doubt. You’ll learn practical, real-life strategies to create a calmer, more connected family dynamic.


This isn’t about rigid rules or one-size-fits-all solutions. It’s about you—your unique child, your values, your family. By the end, you’ll feel empowered to parent with confidence, joy, and a deeper connection to your little one.

Why focus on the early years?

The early years are everything. This is when your child’s brain is making millions of connections, their little personality is blossoming, and they’re soaking up the world around them like a sponge.


The way we parent in these tender, foundational years shapes how they see themselves, how they relate to others, and how they move through life.


But let’s be real—this stage is intense.

Parenting little ones in a world that doesn’t always support their need for closeness, connection, and instead pushes for a low-nurture approach can feel exhausting and overwhelming. You’re not imagining it — it is hard.


That’s why this time is so important. In these early years, children are learning emotional resilience, forming secure attachments, and developing the skills they’ll carry for life. When we truly understand their needs we can meet them with love.


And here’s the best part—you don’t have to do it alone. Let’s navigate this stage together, with tools and insights that actually make parenting feel lighter, calmer, and more connected.

What you'll learn inside the course

This course is designed to give you a deep understanding of your child’s emotional world while equipping you with practical, compassionate strategies for everyday parenting challenges. Together, we’ll explore:


🔹 Understanding Your Child’s Needs – What’s happening at each developmental stage and how to meet their needs with confidence.


🔹 Decoding "Misbehaviour" – The real reasons behind tricky behaviours and how to respond in a way that strengthens your connection.


🔹 Easing Stress & Trauma – Identifying hidden stressors, breaking cycles, and creating a calm, safe environment for your child to thrive.


🔹 The Power of Play – How play supports healing, emotional expression, and deeper connection (plus how to actually make independent play happen!).


🔹 Navigating Big Feelings – Understanding, accepting, and supporting your child’s emotions without feeling overwhelmed.


🔹 The Science of Crying & Tantrums – Why crying is healing, how to handle emotional meltdowns, and what to do in the moment.


🔹 Encouraging Cooperation (Without Punishments or Rewards!) – Gentle yet effective ways to foster teamwork and respect.


🔹 Rethinking Sleep & Food – Alternative, respectful approaches that actually work.


🔹 Handling Transitions Smoothly – From new siblings to starting nursery, how to support your child through big life changes.


🔹 Finding Balance with Screens – A realistic, guilt-free approach to screen time that works for your family.

All the courses we have done with Maru have allowed for us to learn to trust and respect our child when it matters the most, it has also enabled us to care for ourselves during those challenging and often triggering times too . Throughout the 'Unlocking Toddlerhood' sessions, both my partner and I felt reassured that this was the way we wanted to support our child in their emotional growth. It really helped that Maru often gave examples, helping to better understand a scenario and offering suggestion on how best to support our child. Parenting a toddler is hard work, but with these extra tools, we can now do it with the intention to better support the whole family unit.

We loved joining Maru's "unlocking toddlerhood" course. It was delivered incredibly thoughtfully, with no judgement, and endless tips and ideas for how to parent with fun/play at the centre of everything. Our son was 18months when we started the course and really feel that it's helped us talk early on about how we want to parent and the approach we want to take as he grows into his independence and own ideas. Thank you Maru!

I really loved Maru’s approach to sharing her knowledge and wisdom. She teaches with authenticity and compassion and shares a refreshing mix of lived experience and science. The course was life changing and the reminder I needed to block out all the external noise, and bulls*it pressure, that comes with being a first time parent. I can now respond to my own individual child’s needs with confidence and an approach that resonates with me and my family. It was brilliant to do the course with my husband and get us back on the same parenting page. I have recommended it to every parent that will listen. The pace is so accommodating. Highly recommend!

Really enjoyed doing Maru's course together with my partner. It gave us heaploads of food for thought and ideas for whenever things get tough with our little one. I've started getting a bit more comfortable with holding her emotions and playing when I feel myself getting activated.

It was both reassuring and enriching. I felt my personal experience as a parent was genuinely appreciated, and I gained a lot from Maru's nuanced understanding of authentic child-parent relationships.

I like that there is an informal edge (and humour!) to the conversation which makes it feel that I'm speaking with a fellow person rather than a 'professional'.

Parenting Together has transformed our understanding of toddler emotions and actions, and as a result will transform our approach to parenting. Everything I learnt makes so much sense and is already bringing more fun to parenthood, but I wouldn't have got there without the course. So glad we invested the time and trust in Maru!
