And yet, for our sensitively wired families, it so often does
Parenting wasn't meant to feel so hard
ENROLL NOW →
Whether you’re a highly sensitive, neurodivergent, or cycle-breaking parent trying to raise children who are just like you, or a parent just trying to better understand & support your sensitively-wired child or partner, you don’t need more “parenting hacks”.
You need space to breathe. Tools that actually work. Advice tailored to your family's unique needs. And a community that gets it.
Welcome to Raising Us, the roadmap you've been waiting for! It's a holistic, family centered, nervous system & trauma-informed parenting membership designed specifically with the needs of highly sensitive, deeply feeling, neurodivergent & cycle breaking families in mind.
It's everything I once needed, and some days still need, as a highly sensitive & neurodivergent mother, with some pretty big childhood traumas of my own, as I parent two wonderfully sensitive, deeply feeling little humans who, let's be honest, don't love to sleep, but do love to see the world in ways that never cease to amaze me.
At its core, Raising Us is about raising ourselves alongside our kids, bringing awareness to the healing work we need to do first, as parents & caregivers, radically transforming the way we parent so that we can access all the tools we need to raise our sensitively-wired families.
Raising Us is truly a one-of-a-kind experience and I can say with confidence that if you show up, and do the work, it will radically transform the way you feel about parenting.

Let me ask you this:
But before I tell you all about Raising Us, we need to talk about who it's really for
See yourself, your child & any parenting challenges you're navigating through the lens of nervous system sensitivity & the superpower it can truly be.
Finally understand the connection between sensitivity, stress, trauma, the nervous system, regulation & neurodivergence, and how it impacts our parenting journey.
Stay more regulated in those hard moments with body-based, nervous system tools & compassion-based mindset reframes you can actually use at 2 p.m. in the kitchen or at 2 a.m. in the dark.
Heal the parts of you that parenting has cracked open.
Grief, trauma, attachment patterns, old stories about “not being enough” - we gently make space for all of it.
Bring more joy, playfulness and ease into your days even when life is still hard, sleep is still weird, your kids are still melting down and your to-do list is still never-ending.
Set boundaries & advocate for your family's needs, with more confidence and less guilt, with your partner/co-parent, extended family, teachers, friends, and your own inner critic.

Here's Why This Membership Is Different
Most parenting programs focus on behaviour
Raising Us focuses on nervous systems, relationships and healing.
We don’t ask, “how do I fix my child?” We ask, “what is their nervous system (and mine) trying to tell us?”
inside of raising us we integrate:
- Trauma-informed, nervous system-based tools
- Sensitivity & neurodiversity-affirming knowledge, wisdom & advocacy
- Attachment science & evidence-based coaching
- Real-life, messy, compassionate parenting
So this isn’t just “more information.”
It’s a space to integrate, practice, and feel supported as you raise them and raise you.
This Is Definitely The Right Place For You If
Maybe your parenting journey hasn't gone as planned; maybe things have been harder than you ever imagined; maybe staying regulated, grounded, and centered amidst those difficult moments has felt harder than humanly possible; or maybe there's grief & loss that needs to be witnessed & reflected back to you.
This is a space where we'll peel back the layers of our parenting journeys, unearth our strength & resilience, and bring more connection, joy & ease back into our lives & our relationships with those we love the most.
You're ready to jump head first into your healing era
YOU'RE CRAVING A VILLAGE OF SUPPORT
One of the best assets Raising Us has to offer you is not me, but all the amazing parents & families you'll meet along the way. Whether it's in our community platform or on our live calls, you'll have plenty of opportunities to connect with an incredible group of parents who are on a parenting journey very similar to your own.
You know you want to parent your child in a way that feels deeply aligned & intentional, tuning out all the noise and all those "shoulds", and instead tuning into your intuition and deep sense of knowing, while opening yourself up to learning brand new ways of seeing your child and yourself, and understanding nervous system sensitivity in a whole new light.
YOU're Ready TO PARENT WITH INTENTION
You Want parenting Tools That actually work
This program is built to ensure you take action in your daily life and actually see the results you're hoping to see - whether that's setting appropriate boundaries with your child or loved ones, letting go of any lingering guilt & shame, bringing playfulness & joy into your relationship with your kids or partner, or staying regulated and compassionate in those really hard moments.
YOU'RE READY TO Parent in a way that supports the nervous system needs of Your child & Yourself
Raising Us is different than most parenting programs out there because it understands that living in the world with a more sensitive nervous system requires a more holistic, nervous system, body-based, trauma-informed approach. Which is why that framework will infuse all that we do during our time together.
Are you ready to transform your parenting experience?!
Finding Raising Us was like finding light, or catching a deep breath. I was so stressed, watching my son really really struggle.
Watching me and my husband struggle. I knew there must be more information out there, I knew I wasn't making it up in my head and then Natalie appeared with her sweet demeanour and vast immense of knowledge. I truly felt like I was drowning a bit and then suddenly I was not, and I was swimming beside other caregivers who wanted to help each other get to the other side, whatever that looked like."
— Lauren coll
Raising Us has been a game-changer for me in terms of understanding all the intricacies of neurodivergence
I look forward to the monthly content being released each time and feel like I can take a deep breath again after I've studied it because my child makes a little more sense to me and I feel more able to parent in ways that affirm and accommodate my child's differences and gifts. Her course has helped me have more compassion for both myself in my parenting journey and my neurodivergent/autistic child. Plus, Natalie is just so darn calming and encouraging and brilliant!
— Emily Johnson
Raising Us is exactly the parenting content I've been searching for. Natalie's thoughtful, nuanced, balanced viewpoint is a breath of fresh air
In an online parenting influencer space that has become dominated by "tricks and hacks." I particularly appreciate her in-depth content that educates me on the science behind the strategies. Natalie is honest about her own parenting struggles and always makes me feel seen and supported. The community itself is absolutely lovely too, I wish I could meet everyone in person and have a group hug.
— DeeDee Andrews
Being part of Raising Us has been so healing. Relating to others, having people who are so incredibly supportive, not to mention all of Natalie's wonderful content.
I realized that, while my daughter will surely benefit from me being a part of this community, it is really me who is healing and growing and benefiting from the sense of community that is so often missing from our day to day.
— Heather alp
Raising Us is the parents circle I've been longing for ever since my sensitive daughter's birth turned my world upside down.
I have gained knowledge here that has empowered me to be more present & calm in my parenting, in my marriage and my relationship with myself, and I've loved giving and receiving support from the other parents in the forum. I love that Raising Us doesn't focus on scripts that never seem to work on my kid, but rather teaches *why* we and our children react the way we do, enabling me to apply my understanding to my specific child and circumstances. This community is packed with so much helpful knowledge and tools and also feels like a warm hug. I highly recommend!

Everything I have done that has been run by Natalie has genuinely made me a better person, towards myself and to others in my life.
I took the Reparenting Masterclass, and felt every word resonated. I then took the ILABB and it brought us so much peace with our past and future decisions. This community is like the two combined on such a deep soulful level that I feel like I always learn something new, things resonate so much deeper and I can genuinely feel myself change - my thinking patterns, my habits, my compassion growing (towards self and others), and my essence. It's like the final thing that brings all the pieces together and genuinely allows me to show up as the parent I would like to be.
In a sea of parenting content that had me feeling like I could never do enough to get it right, Raising Us helped me realize that I am the mother my children need, just as I am.
Through Natalie’s content, I’ve learned to slow down and see the beauty in my and my child’s sensitively-wired nervous systems. By connecting and relating with parents in families like mine, I feel seen and less alone.
With every piece of content and every connection, my inner child heals a little more.

Joining Raising Us has been the number one most beneficial thing I have done for myself since becoming a parent.
The support offered in this community is multifaceted. I have, in one way or another, leaned on this community during my parenting journey every day since joining. I’ve gained a better understanding of my children, myself, my relationships. I move through my days intentionally, with awareness, and more confident that I can show up for my family as the mom and wife that I have hoped to be.
Raising Us helps us deepen our knowledge of the nervous system, trauma, sensitivity and how that relates to our parenting experience. It helps us understand and explore ourselves, reflect on our own perceptions, preconceptions, childhood memories and triggers. In Raising Us there is seriously no judgement, just openness, curiosity and a willingness to explore and engage. I can't emphasize how rare and important this is!
Raising Us is such a special place that understands & celebrates the nuance of all things parenting, is supportive but not pandering,

It's hard to write a glowing testimonial, without being aware that I never trust the glowing testimonials that I see...
So here it goes:
The content of the monthly workshops, calls and classes has brought together ideas and theories I already knew, but added further context and has also framed them in a way that makes it simple to understand, to reflect on, and to see how an issue might be changed or how I might change around an issue. Natalie has a way of communicating that is clear, understanding and compassionate and makes me believe that change for the better is possible and starts to show me how. The community is so kind and understanding, and so very willing to support and offer ideas to anyone offering up a problem or situation. Whatever the problem is, there is always someone else who has or is dealing with some like similar.
Raising Us is a warm, welcoming, educating, compassionate and understanding place for people who are dealing with high sensitivity in their family and who want to understand how and why, and want to make connections with others in a similar place.
I was hesitant at first to join her program due to the cost and it being internationally (I am based in Europe), yet when she said she is changing it into a membership program, I knew that this is my opportunity. It was basically an affordable and risk free trial of three months and if I didn’t like it, I could stop.
Raising us was basically not only what I had hoped for, it is even more. It basically raised me up in ways I haven’t thought of. I have done another program before, but it was too overwhelming and time consuming.
So what is it for me: It’s a membership community for neurodivergent individuals-mostly parents- who want to learn about themselves and why they feel and act the way they do. There are deep dives about our nervous system, we are getting taught about different strategies for dealing with our and our kids/partners feelings.
Also the community is the best ever.
I was and am a follower of Natalie for about a year before she “invented” Raising Us. Her shares and posts hit home everytime.

I'll never forget a few weeks after my first child was born, looking at my husband and both of us saying at the exact same time: "WTF!" Followed by, "why didn't anyone tell us it was going to be this hard?"
The sleep struggles. The colicky baby. The traumatic birth. The tongue tie. The reflux. The way our relationship with one another seemed to crumble at our feet. The postpartum insomnia. The undiagnosed postpartum depression & ptsd.
And I came into this parenting experience with a massive clinical toolkit and years of experience helping my clients do this work!
But parenting, especially parenting a sensitively-wired child, as a sensitively-wired person myself, hit me hard. And even with all my training, all my experience as a trauma therapist and an occupational therapist, I was wholly unprepared for how triggering I'd find those early years of parenting little humans and how long it would take me to find my own way.
But I did find my way. I did learn to tune out all that noise. I did take the time to dive deep into understanding my child's needs, as well as my own. While doing a whole lot of healing work along the way. And this membership is here to help you do the same.
Everything inside Raising Us comes from a blend of my own clinical expertise and my lived experience as a mother and I would be honoured to walk this path alongside you.
Seven years ago when I had my first child I was totally thrown sideways by how hard this parenting gig felt

The Workshop Library
From our workshop library, to our community & coaching, to our accountability, here's what you need to know
The Parenting Pathway
There is so much about parenting our sensitively-wired families that never makes it into mainstream parenting conversations. That changes here with these workshops:
02
Understanding Sensory Regulation
Sleep & Temperament
Working With Aggression
Circle of Security
Homeschooling
Parenting Teens & Tweens
Mindfulness & Mindset for Parents
Shame & Self-Compassion
Grief, Loss & Trauma

The most important work we'll do as parents is the healing & reparenting we do with ourselves. Our incredible workshops include:
03
Neurodivergence Pathway
So many families in our community are on a journey of discovering and exploring their neurodivergences. These workshops provide so much clarity in that process:
04
Understanding ADHD
Autism & PDA
Giftedness & Twice Exceptionality
What is Sensory Processing Disorder?
05
The Nervous System & Trauma Pathway
This pathway is more of a deep-dive course than a series of workshops. Here are the 8 modules you'll get immediate access to:
The Window of Tolerance
Physiology of the Nervous System
The Stress Cycle
The Vagus Nerve
What Is Trauma?
Trauma & Memory
Healing The Nervous System
The Private Podcast Series is a favourite with our community members! In these easily digestible, bite-sized episodes, I answer presubmitted questions from community members, as well as share some of my personal parenting experiences - like the episode where I talk about navigating our preschool transition with my toddler or where I answer questions about getting an autism assessment.

FAQ
(Frequently Asked Q's)
I’m so burned out. Will I actually have time/ energy for this?
Raising Us is built for parents and their capacity. Especially sensitively-wired and neurodivergent parents like me! You don’t need to attend everything live or consume every piece of content to benefit. Think of it as a supportive hub you can drop into when you have 10–20 minutes for a workshop replay, a podcast episode, or a post in the community, that gradually shifts how you move through the day.
Yes. Many parents share the content with a partner or co-parent and invite them to join calls or watch replays. (You can decide together how to pace it.)
What if I can’t make the live calls?
All calls are recorded and added to your library. Many members submit questions in advance and watch the replay when it works for their schedule or energy.
not sure we “qualify” as sensitive, neurodivergent or cycle-breaking. Is this still for us?
If your family feels “more” - more intense, more emotional, more sensitive, more overwhelmed, more dysregulated, more affected by noise/change/sleep - you belong here. And there's no better resource out there to help you unpack how much of your more is related to your or your child's sensitively-wired brain, nervous system, sensitivities, neurodivergences or traumas.
I’ve done other courses and memberships and felt overwhelmed. How is this different?
This is not another perfectionistic parenting program. We prioritize nervous system safety, small doable steps, and giving you choice. You can follow a clear pathway or dip in and out as needed; either way, you’re not doing it alone.

Some Final Words
Being a part of Raising Us is one of the best decisions I have made in my parenting journey.
I have learned so much from Natalie's content, both in relation to my own healing journey and also parenting my highly sensitive son. I feel so supported in the community. I feel like I have found my people, those who get it, who get me, where I can share the most vulnerable difficult moments of life and parenting and there is always someone there who relates, to offer advice or just show support. I often thought healing and change wasn't possible for me. Being a part Raising Us has showed me it is.

I am so happy that I joined Raising Us. Before being a part of this wonderful community, I felt alone in my motherhood journey.
I don't have anyone else in my life who has a neurodivergent child or highly sensitive child so finding this group was a breath of fresh air. It's filled with people who can relate to my experiences. The workshops, guest calls and Q&A sessions are so helpful! I've learned so much in the last 6 months that have helped me feel like less of a failure as a mom and have helped me to parent my children in such a way that will help them feel good in their skin and help them along the journey they are on.

Prior to joining I found myself looking to the internet frequently to help me be a better parent

It was exhausting and not that helpful. Raising Us has allowed me to have access to valuable content that I have found applicable to helping understand my child better as well as myself. I had no idea the amount of grief I was experiencing and it has helped me begin healing from the loss of the parenting journey I thought I would have. In addition, I moved forward with an evaluation that my child truly needed and I don’t know that I was fully aware of that before starting this membership. I believe the community as well as the educational content gave me the confidence to recognize that my child needed more.
I'm so glad I joined Raising Us - it has been immensely helpful to me as a highly sensitive mom with a highly sensitive daughter.
From the monthly workshops covering topics ranging from Attachment & Healing all the way to Grief & Trauma, I have learned so much about the nervous system and it has really helped me on my own healing journey as well as continuing to hone in on and tune my own parental instincts to be the best parent I can be for my daughter. Being able to connect with other parents facing similar challenges in the community has also been wonderful - people regularly share their own tips and struggles and it's made me feel a lot less alone.

Raising Us is an incredible resource.
Natalie has stacked this program with research based workshops that span from understanding nervous system dysregulation, attachment styles, to addressing unhelpful thinking just to name a few. This sets a foundation of regulation that as we practice and improve, helps us be better parents and partners. From there we learn about somatics, grief, high sensitivity and countless other topics relative to understand ourselves and our kids better.
Natalie has a beautiful teaching style and has created a wonderful supportive community of parents and individuals working hard to break cycles together. I am truly so grateful for the perspective I have gained and all that I have learned in Raising Us. The tools and education gained through this community have helped my family so much. I highly and enthusiastically recommend this program! :)

Becoming a mother after a decade of infertility in 2020 I felt very alone.
I had a little one that struggled with sleep and feeding. I felt like a failure. The mainstream advice from those around me did not sit well with me. I started to follow Natalie on instagram and it was like a breath of fresh air. When she launched Raising Us I knew it was a community I had to join. I love how Natalie provides educational resources monthly, expert guests and has brought together the most incredible parenting community.
Sharing and witnessing each other on our own healing journeys is deeply therapeutic. I no longer feel alone and I have the language to explain what it means to be a highly sensitive person. She has provided us with tools and strategies to help us in those difficult moments. The coaching calls allow us to share our struggles and celebrate our victories. I feel empowered and confident in my parenting approach and know that being part of Raising Us has lead me to have more compassion for myself and my little one.
