We are Parenting Coach Lisa Sigurgeirson, ECE, and Mama, Sareena Merino. Amma Lisa (amma means grandma in Icelandic) comes to us with over 40 years of experience in supporting, educating and coaching parents, from a foundation in Early Childhood Education. Lisa is a mama and an amma, and is still spending loads of time with young children, on the daily, through the private childcare she offers. Amma Lisa lives a nature-based, “green,” eco-friendly life and brings that to the conversation, too!Mama Sareena is a young, stay-at-home mom of two little ones, and who, through our podcast, says she is busily unlearning the punishment-style, "do as I say'' parenting she was raised on, while eagerly learning and implementing new ways of being a gentle, mindful, attachment-style parent who has strong boundaries while building a relationship of mutual respect and deep connection. If you want to delight in your days, and practical help in getting your little ones to do what needs to be done in a day, including getting them out the door and into nature to enjoy the wonders of life through their eyes, this is the podcast for you! Looking forward to bath and bed time routines each night is also possible! Come hang out with us in our easy, conversation-style format between a young mama like yourself, a supportive grandma-figure sharing her wisdom, (with training and decades of experience to back up her claims!), and our knowledgeable guests. We hope you feel like you belong here, learning right alongside us. So grab your latte - or your tea - and “come sit around the proverbial ancient fire with us” as you go about your busy day, and together we will create a nurturing Village of support to assist you in raising healthy, respectful, awesome humans!For more info you can contact us through e-mail at [email protected] or join us in our FB Group https://www.facebook.com/groups/546870209759899
