Parenting With Gelly

Who Is Parenting With Gelly?

Parenting With Gelly was inspired by my work as a Child and Family Therapist over the past 20 years. Now, my dream is to build a community of Moms online where we celebrate parenthood together and learn the skills to help our children become tomorrow’s successful adults. My vision for Parenting With Gelly is to empower you in your most important role in your life, being a Mom.

What is Parenting With Gelly all about?

I teach moms in our Parenting With Gelly community how to be proud, connected parents utilizing the power of play. I know that dreaming alone doesn’t make a great parent. Moms need lots of support to nurture their children!

Our premier Playful Parenting Program and various courses are designed to provide practical and hands-on support to raise happy families.

The WHY of Parenting With Gelly

I’m on a mission to equip parents with the tools to raise healthy, emotionally secure children. I want every home to be a safe place for kids to live with their parents. I want children to feel nourished and loved!

As a mom and grandma, I understand the unique challenges women face every day as we try to raise our kids while maintaining a healthy work/ life balance.

That’s why I’m working on taking the overwhelm out of parenting… so you can be the mom you always wanted to be!

   MORE ABOUT GELLY

I am the third of a family of twelve and grew up surrounded by big families in the neighborhood. I am a parent of two wonderful adult daughters and a proud grandma of two little cutie pies who bring tremendous joy and happy chaos into my life.

I pride myself on being the world’s best aunt to all my many nieces and nephews of all ages, adopted ones too…

Professionally, I’m a Child and Family Therapist, Registered Play Therapist Supervisor, and EMDR Consultant. I deeply believe in the power of family and healing.

I share this message of hope and resilience with clients and supervisees, on social media, and here with you at Parenting with Gelly.
