About this

Perfectionism is fear. Fear of being unlovable, incapable, disapproved of, or “defective.” Our pep talks aren’t always enough to dissolve this fear — in our child or in ourselves. Motherhood can kick up our own perfectionist tendencies. These fears ARE normal, but they don’t have to run the show for you OR your child. Laughter & play can help refuel a sense of confidence, especially when learning something new.

Using Play to Work Through Your Child’s Perfectionism

I'm blessed to have a 1, 3, & 9 yr old with my hubby in Austin, TX. I’ve spent over a decade working with kids, parents, & teachers from classroom teacher, social-emotional curriculum director, learning game designer, board certified coach & certified parenting by connection instructor. I do this work because when parents are understood and loved, they raise understanding and loving children. This is how we change the world.
