Why Parents Choose Parenting Now

Find out what's actually normal

So much two-year-old behavior feels alarming until you hear other parents describe the exact same thing.

Skip the trial and error

Get real skills and guidance instead of learning through mistakes your child has to experience with you.

Reframe discipline as teaching

Move from power struggles to a calmer, more effective approach rooted in how 2-year-olds actually learn.

Feel less alone in the hard moments

A real space to share the highs and lows of this stage with parents who are living it too.

What Your Group Will Help You Do

Two-year-olds are exhausting and fascinating in equal measure. Every session follows a curriculum built around this exact stage.

 

Address relevant challenges and "hot tips" with other families with TWOs

Explore your goals, values, and guidelines to create the family life that you want

Learn "words that work" to build connection, cooperation, and mutual respect

Explore using positive discipline to guide your child as their best teacher and guide

Learn strategies to guide your child through their expanding world

Learn to be an "emotion coach" to your TWO through upsets and meltdowns

What Parents Are Saying

"I really appreciated the time and space given to parents to share their highs and lows and experiences. This had such an impact on my understanding of what was 'normal' behavior for a two-year-old."

"It has given me the skills and guidance that I needed. It has prevented me from having to learn by trial and error, and having my child suffer from my ignorance."

You don't have to white-knuckle the twos alone.
