Parent YOUR ADHD CHILD EFFECTIVELY WITH EASE + FUN
Without nagging, shouting, bribing and losing your sh**(sanity).
Get started with my top 25 checklist for what a Virtual Assistant can do for you!
Yup. Sounds good... except...
you don't quite know how to get through to your child without the usual (failed) cycles of
talking nicely --> nagging with irritation --> yelling and threats.
Afterschool and Evenings are a dread...
Because you have to face your dreamy, disgruntled, complaining child and yet still have to face the stress to get him/her to get the work done. And then the inevitable meltdowns... which last longer than the time taken to eventually get the assignment done.
Heartbroken at how hard your child tries but still fails to make friends
Bullying, feeling lonely, or masking just to fit in is making school additionally hard and you desperately hope your child will at least find 1 friend who will be kind and accepting.
Hate yourself for turning into a nag for EVERYTHING...
Toothbrushing, keeping the room tidy, pack the bag, don't lose your things... all these 'basic' stuff needs your constant prompting. You find yourself resentful at having to pick up her pieces and worse... contemptuous towards your child, you don't know how to break out of the vicious cycle. 😥
BUT NO MORE...
Break out of this negative cycle with your child and finally get on the same page so that you can solve problems and remove obstacles collaboratively.
Whether or not you’re beginning on your journey of discovering your child’s neurodiversity...
Or you’re already familiar with the ABC soup of neurodiversity
You are ready to take the next step
from dwelling on weaknesses to uncovering your child’s superpowers.
"...helps to have a listening ear, even more so one who is able to help steer you in the direction you hope to work towards"
I had so many initial, runaway thoughts but I am glad to have jumped on a call with Abigail! So many runaway thoughts but so much good came out (of the call). She is able to conceptualize my many runaway thoughts, and help steer me in the direction I hoped to work towards.

I DID not set out to be a parent coach for moms with neurodiverse kids...
Fun fact: at 16 when I did the MBTI, I was an ENFP. My suggested careers were teacher, psychologist, coach…
When I saw the word ‘coach’, I pfftt at it. Like what? My limited understanding made me scoff at coaching as a career and I chose the 'psychology' path instead - cuz... 'psychologist' has a sexy ring to it. I don't know... I was 18 okay...
And here I am 20 years later… fortunate enough to have my undergraduate degree in psychology and formal training in teaching, now leaning in my interpersonal and intrapersonal strengths as a parent coach for neurodiverse families.
Life is funny and does come full circle.
You see, my child is diagnosed with ADHD. From suspicion, to going through the public route (and then failing to get a diagnosis) took us 2 years. In that 2 years, I was forced to find ways to help my child without access to medication and therapy and my methods worked!
Until the increased demands of school and life exceeded my child's natural (and coached) abilities to cope.
Under time pressure (PSLE exams looming) plus impulsivity and my child's severe anxiety, my family decided to pull the trigger to get my child a private diagnosis.
And here we are, having been at both sides of pre-diagnosis to post-diagnosis, I'm continually exploring and experimenting on better ways to parent and teach my ADHD child.
If you also have a child with ADHD, I understand fully your daily struggles and intense pain you go through everyday. I feel for you, but I also feel for the child because I strongly believe no child should be made to fit into the mould because of adults' (parents and teachers) poor knowledge of neurodiversity - and then made to feel lousy about themselves for not thriving.
It's up to you and me as parents to unlearn and relearn better ways to parent our neurodiverse kids - and then advocate for and with them - to help them thrive and succeed.
Our neurodiverse kids are wonderful, creative, funny, quirky people bursting with personality and talent! They deserve more conducive and supportive environments for life and learning. Will you endeavour to be part of the change your child needs?
