5 Weeks to More
Learn the simple, doable techniques for a less stressed, more connected family life
Open to all parents and caregivers!
There’s no denying it: raising kids today is too often completely overwhelming.
There’s just too much stuff, too much information, too many choices, and too little time to make sense of it all - and that’s just how the adults feel, imagine what it’s like for little kids who are still developing their prefrontal cortexes and executive functioning!
All of this gets in the way of building close family bonds and can make kids anxious, create behavioral problems, and generally disrupt their healthy development and growth.
Thankfully, Simplicity Parenting offers evidence based, field-tested and proven methods for reducing this overwhelm and the problems it creates so that you can create the family life you’ve always dreamed of.
“The Simplicity Parenting Class should be a required course for all parents. There is an expression that kids don’t come with an instruction manual. This class is the instruction manual. ”
What You’ll Get
Less:
Physical, mental, and emotional clutter - getting in everyone’s way
Stress on your kid(s), yourself, and anyone else in the family
Emotional outbursts and challenging behavior to manage
Judgement or feelings that you’re not “doing parenting right”
More:
Connection and closeness among family members
Peace and stability in the home
Enjoyment from parenting and time with your kid(s)
Confidence and satisfaction in your choices in parenting
Support from a trained facilitator and from other cool parents going through similar things and aiming for the same goals
“It can feel daunting to take on a text and implement changes in your daily rhythm, but Drew’s course helped us to make movements towards the kind of harmony and growth we’d always aimed for. We also loved that the class made it easy to maintain our personal values and ideals.”
This is Not an Instructional Course on How You “Should” Parent
If we want to feel embarrassed or ashamed about our parenting decisions, there are plenty of opportunities for that on our social media feeds or maybe even within our own families!
In this group, we’ll examine together expert resources to give us an idea of what to aim for and then work together on how to translate it into goals, strategies, and actions that meet the realities of our own lives in the real world.
Parenting is hard but it was never meant to be as isolating and frustrating as we make it today. Gathering together with a group of like-minded parents to strive together towards something better provides the validation, encouragement, and support we need to create family lives centered on harmony, joy, and genuine connection.
Plus, working together with others makes the whole thing a lot more fun!

"Drew's facilitated course on 'Simplicity Parenting' was outstanding. His deft approach to combining the insightful content of Kim John Payne with engaging discussion among the parents produced a superb learning environment. We now approach our children with more empathy and operate with a more conscious and constructive rhythm at home."
Jamie, dad of 12 and 6 yr/olds

"One of the highlights of the course was the engaging discussions with other parents, which provided a valuable opportunity to gain different perspectives and insights. The material presented offered excellent practical strategies that I found easy and useful in introducing the principles into my own family."
Remy, dad of 6 yr/old
How It Works
The group meets once a week over 4 weeks at Acron Hill and is open to caregivers of all identities - moms, dads, nonbinary, and non-parent caregivers.
In our sessions we review video material from Kim John Payne together, pausing to discuss the material, share experiences, and determine how to integrate it into our lives.
Couples can attend sessions together or in whatever way works best for your family.
Participants must also purchase class materials from Simplicity Parenting Institute ($30). These materials may be shared within the household and you will have access to them for one year. (Link to these materials sent after registration)
