"I truly love this approach, it is bringing so much more harmony into our family.

I really wish I had known about this approach before she was born, it would have made such a difference to us, but it's never too late and I am very grateful to know about it now….

It has been changing our lives and I will always be grateful.” Veronica

Help your baby:

Grow up connected with all of her feelings, free to express herself authentically and fully

Stay connected with his deepest self

Tell you what is REALLY going on for her when she's a child and teenager (even the challenging and painful things)

Stay true to himself

We're Marion Rose Ph.D. and Helena Mooney!

We are here to support YOU, and your baby. We'll show you how to help your baby:

  • Be aware and present (her true nature!)
  • Be more relaxed (which is who he truly is!)
  • Be more deeply connected with you (not just spacing out!)
  • Sleep for longer (because she's truly relaxed, not just zoning out!)
  • Sleep more soundly (so that you can see how relaxed her muscles are)
  • Release stress from inevitable everyday occurrences (through play and crying-in-arms)
  • Be more contented in the car (because she's more relaxed!)
  • Heal forever from any birth trauma or separations (so she doesn't need to wait until adulthood!)
  • Be able to concentrate for longer periods (because she's both relaxed AND alert!)
  • Be the loving and compassionate being that she was born as (because she's relatively free from pent-up feelings)

"The Aware Parenting Babies course changed my life.

It opened my eyes to a new way of connecting with my baby, myself and everyone around me.”  Caroline

What We'll Cover Together

About Aware Parenting

Based upon Attachment Theory and developed by Aletha Solter Ph.D, you'll discover how Aware Parenting is the essential missing piece from most of the parenting advice out there.

This will change your understanding of your baby's behaviours & needs and give you the 'aha' moment to respond differently & more effectively to your baby.

Crying

Understand why your baby cries so much!  And discover how crying is actually beneficial for your baby when you hold them in your arms.

THIS is the missing piece and this concept will change your life!  Plus it's the best preparation as your baby moves into becoming a toddler with frustrations & tantrums.

Sleep

Probably the #1 reason you're reading this page right now!  Getting your baby to sleep is probably one of your biggest challenges at the moment.

Aware Parenting can help.  By gaining an understanding of what's really going on for your baby and then responding to those needs, you baby WILL sleep better.  And so will you!

Practicalities

Does your baby cry a lot in its carseat?  Is the 'witching hour' a nightmare in the early evening?  What about travelling with your baby?

Learn how to apply these Aware Parenting principles to everyday situations to make scenarios such as these so much easier to navigate.

More Ways to Help Your Baby

Discover how the simple act of playing with your baby can help them sleep better, be calmer during the day & release upset feelings.

Plus you'll also discover how to set limits with your baby in a respectful, gentle & effective way (perfect preparation for those toddler years!).

You & Your Feelings

Parenting is THE greatest personal development experience there is.  It's amazing, relentless & can induce an incredible amount of guilt & anxiety!  So let's talk about this.

Throughout the 5 weeks you'll be supported in whatever comes up for you.  The more support you receive, the more you're able to give to your baby.  So come & be nurtured as you nurture your baby.

Your Recent Experiences

If you've had a difficult birth experience or a relatively easy one, we understand the impact it has on you & your baby and bring you this approach to help you with the experience.

Please know that it's never too late to introduce Aware Parenting to your family, whether you've tried Self-Soothing methods to help your baby sleep better, or the Attachment Parenting approach.

Our Aware Parenting Conversations

Gain a personal insight into us as mums & hear about our experiences with our own children, - how it was for us for our first & second children, what we found hard & easy, what we'd do differently if we could do it all over again, etc.

We both love the theory and know the reality of implementing Aware Parenting with our own babies so can offer you the honest realities!

PLUS these AMAZING Bonuses!

"We are starting to really see the benefits in our happy little guy. He's transitioning into & out of sleep so well - I understand his needs much better.

It's certainly been life changing for me so far.” Erin

About Us

Helena Mooney

I've been practicing Aware Parenting for over 10 years and became an Aware Parenting Instructor and a Parenting by Connection Instructor in 2014.

I'm also a Doula and mum to 2 children - Emily (11) & George (5) - both of whom you will hear about in the course!

I started when Emily was 10 months old (so if you're baby is older, you can absolutely still join in and gain so much from this course), and have been with my son in this way since his birth.

I am so thankful for finding this approach when my children were young, as it has given me amazing insight and tools to help them as babies, as well as when they became toddlers and now a primary-aged school child.

The support I've gained from Marion and other Aware Parents has been instrumental in me being able to be with my children and all of their big, strong feelings.  So I am incredibly passionate about supporting parents in those every-day challenging moments we all struggle with, from birth, babies and beyond.....

Marion Rose Ph.D.

I'm a mother of a 16 year old daughter and 11 year old son, and I'm a Level Two Aware Parenting Instructor.

I've been practising Aware Parenting since my daughter was 3 months old, in 2002.

I've been an Aware Parenting Instructor since 2005, and I have a 30 year background in developmental psychology and psychotherapy, including a Ph.D. from Cambridge University on postnatal depression and the mother-infant relationship.

My particular passion is working with mothers who love exploring their own emotional worlds and growing alongside their children.

I LOVE Aware Parenting because it helps us be deeply connected with our babies and them with us, and it gives us the tools and understandings to support our babies to stay connected with their true nature and real selves (and along the way for us to reconnect with who we really are too!)
