School navigation support, strategy to overcome academic challenges, & coaching for parents

 

You know the frustration (or maybe even shame) of school challenges.

You’ve felt your stomach drop when an email from the teacher hits your inbox. Maybe you’ve tried some things, but school isn’t getting easier for your child and you’re still losing sleep.


It may feel hopeless, but it’s not. You just need a roadmap.

That’s what I’m here for. I’ve helped lots of other parents just like you find their voices and the strategies they need to get school back on track in ways that work for their unique kids. Whether you have no idea why your child is struggling in school or you've got a crystal clear picture but not the path forward - I’m here to help you navigate your way to school success.

Founder & Chief Problem-Solver

Glad you’re here! I started Reframe Parenting to help parents find the roadmaps to school success that their kids need and deserve because, well, it’s exactly what I needed but didn’t have. I’ve been exactly where you are! When my oldest started school, those teacher emails about problems starting filling up my inbox and they just kept coming. I remember the stress, frustration, & hopelessness all too well.  I felt lost. 

Now I share my hard won successes and strategies to save you time and heart-ache.  I’m first-class researcher, problem-solver, & sharer of information. These skills are key to helping parents like you navigate the twists and turns of education. My goal for you = Less time and energy spent finding your way and grasping at straws and more time spent enjoying your amazing kid!

"I don't know where we would be without Scotti's guidance and support. When my youngest daughter was diagnosed with dyslexia I had no idea where to start. I can't recommend Reframe Parenting enough, it's a life-saver."
