How my journey began
Hi, I’m Amanda creator of Child First connected co-parenting!
In my personal life I grew up in a two-home family. I am a mother of four, in my personal adult relationships I have gained further experience in managing the dynamics of relationships following a breakdown.
I have spent most of my working life supporting people in the midst of life challenges. Mental health, drug and alcohol abuse, parenting challenges, family and domestic violence are only but a few…
Throughout my work, I have realized that REAL change happens when the motivation comes from within YOU! You do not need to look outside of yourself to create positive steps forward in creating a more balanced co-parenting relationship, even if your co-parent will not come to the table.
I have also learned that as parents we all can be motivated for change if it is in the best interests of our KIDS.
Put these two motivators together and we have the perfect recipe for a great change!
My vision for you
That Child First Co-parenting is a safe space where you can access your bespoke support earlier in your journey following a breakdown of relationship. A space to work on your own growth and realization that the changes made are in your power not your co-parents.
It’s a space where each individual is valued and supported to develop and be the best they can be in their parenting journey, no matter what the challenges are.
