      <image:caption>The advice we have received from Reb has a beautiful impact on our lives every day. We have felt more empowered in responding to our children, able to hold more space for each other, recognising the communication opportunities within emotional outbursts. The sessions with Reb have felt like a warm hug during periods of parenting worry, allowing us to take comfort in our children being exactly who they need to be and celebrating that. Reb creates such a safe and calm space for the sessions, they felt like a catch up with a family member, graciously reading back the success moments, and joy, whilst also offering strategies to implement into family life and a considered foundation to check back against in future.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Reb was a lifeline when I was at a low ebb and needed to talk through the issues I faced as a parent. It was a relief to have the space and time to focus on our family and my concerns. Reb truly listens and I felt completely supported. We are lucky to have The Parent Collaborative in Bath.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Testimonials - Ricky - Dad of 4</image:title>
      <image:caption>I would highly recommend the Parent Collaborative for anyone looking to really get to the root understanding of how they can better help their children as well as themselves. I found the meetings really useful in helping me get to grips with my behaviour, be aware of the trigger points and how to implement coping mechanisms in difficult situations. The Parent Collaborative has had a profound impact on me and my family and I would wholeheartedly recommend them to anyone.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Testimonials - Caroline - Mum of 3</image:title>
      <image:caption>I’m not sure I have the words to truly convey the impact Reb has had on our family. Empathetic and sympathetic in good measure with absolutely no judgement, mixed with a good dose of coaching, listening and advice. Reb has been a complete saviour to me at times where I have found parenting 3 children incredibly challenging whilst working full time and dealing with special needs and a newborn. I have been blown away by how much impact Reb has had, and will continue to have. Not sure how I managed the past 7 years without her!</image:caption>

The coaching she has provided us with has enabled us to forge deeper, richer bonds with our children, enjoy more of our time together, and better endure tough times too. We are a stronger, more resilient, and happier family as a result. Rebecca is a one a million and we couldn’t recommend her enough”</image:caption>

      <image:title>Testimonials - Mir – father of 1 – arrived in Bath as a refugee</image:title>
      <image:caption>Reb created a safe, non-judgemental space for us as new parents navigating early parenthood far from home and family. As a refugee family, without the usual support of grandparents, siblings or extended relatives, we were often overwhelmed and unsure. Reb offered something rare: the feeling of being seen, heard, and supported with empathy, care and genuine respect.  Her support was practical and grounded. She helped us break things down into manageable, goal-focused steps. She offered support with everything from food and nutrition, toilet training, speech, and communication, to independence, frustration, and emotional development. These may sound like everyday parenting issues, but when you’re doing it alone, in a new country, they’re huge.    We began working with Reb when our son was two; he’s now five. For three years, she’s been a steady guide. Her knowledge both practical and theoretical is deep, but she never imposed a one-size-fits-all strategy. She listened, she responded to our needs, and always adapted her approach with care.  Her support was offered on a pro bono basis, and yet the level of attention, commitment and professionalism we received was exceptional. I honestly believe that without Reb’s guidance, our parenting journey would’ve been far more isolating and overwhelming. Reb's presence has been instrumental in helping us grow into confident, capable parents. We’re incredibly grateful.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>We have been very fortunate to find Reb and have sought her guidance on several occasions, as our children grow up and navigate different issues. She is a wonderfully warm person and a great listener. She provides very practical suggestions and tools, as well as reassurance and comfort. It is always lovely to see her, and we come away from our sessions together feeling more positive, more united and more confident.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Testimonials - Katie - Mum of 2</image:title>
      <image:caption>I couldn’t recommend The Parent Collaborative highly enough. I think it should be prescribed on the NHS for all parents! My confidence and belief as a parent have completely changed since having sessions with Reb. If things come up along the way, I have a one-off session with Reb, and this helps put my mind at ease and gives me so much reassurance. I would recommend sessions with The Parent Collaborative to any parent at any stage; it will make such a big difference to your family.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Testimonials - Saffy - Mum in a blended family of 6</image:title>
      <image:caption>I went to see Reb for a session not knowing what to expect or what the outcome would be, but I knew that I needed an outsider’s perspective and some sage words. Sometimes as a parent you want the world to stop so you can step off and catch your breath for a minute. That is exactly what my session at the Parent collaborative was like, a chance to reflect, learn, be listened to and acknowledged and have a moment to refuel and recharge my parenting skills.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Testimonials - Sam - Mum of 2</image:title>
      <image:caption>I could not recommend The Parenting Collaborative highly enough. Reb created a trusting environment to discuss our parenting problems and offered clear and evidence-based advice to troubleshoot a tough patch as a family.   This process allowed me to identify areas where I can provide my son the freedom to express his feelings in a safe and constructive way, whilst maintaining our family values. The process has importantly provided the guidance to improve the connection between my son and me, and for that I will forever be grateful to Reb.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Testimonials - Claire – mother of 2</image:title>
      <image:caption>I started working with Reb when I was faced with a particularly difficult situation relating to my children. Reb sensitively helped me navigate my thoughts and concerns, focussing not only on the well-being and needs of the children but on myself, as a parent too.  Reb’s gentle and fair approach, her ability to listen then concisely articulate what she has heard and her help to allow me to pinpoint specific focus areas, helped me better understand my own emotional response to the situation. Reb’s help to then develop and implement a pragmatic and considered plan to deal with that situation, was amazing. I went from not knowing where to start, to reaching a point where I was confident and secure in my approach.  I will never be able to thank Reb enough for the peace of mind I received from our sessions and would wholeheartedly recommend The Parent Collaborative to anybody needing some counsel, advice or support on issues relating to parenting.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Testimonials - Marnie and Joanna – parents of 2</image:title>
      <image:caption>Our family have had the good fortune of working with Reb for six months now and she has been such a fantastic resource for us. From the first time we spoke, she made me feel totally at ease and like no problem that I brought to her was too big for her to help with. She is calm and kind and always puts the child at the heart of her advice. As well as providing a listening and non-judgemental presence, she is armed with reams and reams of practical advice for parents to implement. Many of these have greatly improved our family dynamic. Reb is also exceptionally conscientious - every session she followed up with comprehensive written notes which we could use as a sort of road map for the week ahead.  I couldn't recommend her services more highly.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>We worked with Reb for 5 sessions and found it an incredibly insightful experience. Reb is a supportive and compassionate person, who both listened to us and gave us tools to help us parent our child, both with boundaries and kindness. We have gone back to her notes time and time again, to remind us of these tools, and this has helped us feel supported and empowered, long after the sessions have ended.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Testimonials - Catherine - Mum of 2</image:title>
      <image:caption>After struggling to read and engage with parenting books, finding Rebecca was such a relief!   Rebecca's sessions are relaxed and somewhere I felt I could freely open up and chat about our family without feeling judged. Taking time to pause, step back, and gain a fresh perspective. With Rebecca's understanding and experience, she anticipated my needs before I did. I always leave each session knowing that I have the strength and ability to make positive changes and see them actually work! I also liked the fact I could pick how often and how many sessions that I wanted and to pop back in the future if I need to.Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Reb was incredibly supportive and intuitive during a difficult and traumatic time for our family. Her advice for helping my children adjust was lovingly child centred. However, I also felt held and understood. I'm incredibly grateful to Reb for steering me so gently. She gave targeted advice that was easy to apply and successful in helping me empower my children, respond well to challenging behaviours and grow together as a unit. So many people have commented that my children are navigating tough times really well. I always make sure I give credit to Reb. .</image:caption>
