Be The Kind of Parent You
Want To Be
Welcome to Mindful Parent Club!
Parenting can sometimes feel HEAVY!
You love your child deeply. You know the parent you want to be, calm, present, patient. And yet, you find yourself shouting, reacting, and ending some days with feelings of guilt and frustration.
If you’re stuck in tantrums, power struggles, bedtime battles, or chaotic mornings, you’re not alone.
And you are not failing.
Mindful Parent Club exists to help you move from reacting to responding. From control to connection. From stress to steadiness.
There’s a mindful, different way of raising children. It’s grounded in brain science, nervous system regulation, and attachment. It is practical and comes with firm yet kind boundaries.
Calm
Connection
Confidence
A new way to understand children's behaviour.
At Mindful Parent Club, we start with one core belief: All behaviour is communication.
Mantra: Your child is not giving you a hard time. They are having a hard time.
Research in child development and neuroscience shows that young children do not yet have a fully developed prefrontal cortex (the thinking part of our brain). This is the part of the brain responsible for skills such as impulse control, planning, and emotional regulation.
To add to this, in moments of stress, think: tired, hungry or upset, their nervous system takes over. The thinking part of their brain goes offline.
When we see our child’s behaviour through this lens, we respond differently. We shift from blame to curiosity, from punishment to guidance.
But this does not mean practising permissive parenting. It’s about leading with compassion while holding clear boundaries. It’s discipline without shame, threats, or fear.
Connection comes before correction.
"I have loved working with Sarah as my parent coach. She’s been non judgemental and given me space to really understand my own behaviours and how to build connection with my daughter. I have felt my whole family has benefited as a result of the support Sarah has provided me."

Hello, I am Sarah Allan
I’m a Certified Parenting Coach with a First Class degree in Children’s Mental Health and Wellbeing. I have spent many years working with families in social care. I have supported children and families facing high stress, emotional and behavioral difficulties and complex needs. I have also walked the path of parenting myself.
Through my lived parenting experience and my professional background, I have witnessed a clear problem. There is lack of support and services for parents who want to grow and be the version of themselves. I believe parenting would be so much easier if we normalised parenting support and empowered parents with some crucial information on a Children's development. .
My approach is trauma-informed. It is rooted in attachment theory, nervous system and brain science. It recognises that your capacity and wellbeing comes first.
Children learn what they live. They borrow our calm. They cannot access skills we do not model.
I don’t offer quick fixes. I offer a clear framework, practical tools, and steady guidance, so you can build a relationship with your child that feels safe and steady.
For parents and caregivers of children aged 1 to 11.
If you’ve tried sticker charts, time-outs, or raised voices and nothing seems to stick, this space is for you.
Many of the parents I support are reflective and growth-oriented. They read books. They follow accounts for inspiration. Yet they still feel stuck in cycles of overwhelm and guilt.
Together, we’ll work on:
Tantrums and meltdowns
Power struggles and defiance
Bedtime battles
Morning routine stress
Big emotions
Sibling conflict
You will not be judged. Instead, you’ll be supported to break patterns and build new ones.
For nurseries, preschools, and organisations.
I also work with early years providers, family hubs, and corporate settings.
Staff often face high emotional demand in settings where they need to care for or attend to children. Unwanted behaviour can escalate quickly when adults feel stretched.
I deliver training and workshops grounded in brain and nervous system science. Sessions focus on adult regulation, co-regulation in practice, and creating environments that support emotional development.
When practitioners understand behaviour as communication, their responses change. This benefits children, staff wellbeing, and parent/caregiver-children relationships.
If you would like support for your team or the families you serve, we can design a programme that fits your circumstances.
What makes Mindful Parent Club different?
Being a parent, caregiver is not about controlling children.
It’s about leading with firm yet kind boundaries. It’s about raising children with long-term social and emotional health in mind. It’s about breaking cycles of shame and fear.
The science is clear: Secure relationships shape brain development. Consistent co-regulation supports emotional resilience. Parents who can regulate themselves are better able to guide their children.
You don’t need to shout to be heard. You don’t need to threaten to set a boundary.
What you need is clarity, steadiness, and connection.
If you’re ready to parent with more calm, a deeper connection, and real confidence, I would love to support you.
Start your journey in mindful parenting!
How It Works:
When you book a call with me, we’ll sit down together and talk so I can get a sense of what’s going on for you and your family and where I can offer support.
I’ll explain my approach and the options we have for working together. You can ask any questions you have and see what type of support would be the best fit for your life and schedule.
If it feels right to you, we can book our first session and get started. If it’s not a good fit, I will do my best to offer alternative resources or suggestions for support, wherever possible. There’s no pressure of any kind, simply an opportunity to see if we are a good fit to work together.
Since doing the Transformational Parenting course with Sarah we have such a happier house! Communication has improved between all of us, I feel like I understand the kids a lot better and am able to empathise with them more when their behaviour is challenging. I learned so many strategies that have come in useful, not just with the children but with other members of the family too. I'm so grateful we got to take part in this course.
