Tantrums. Bedtime battles. Fussy eating. Screen fights.
You're not doing it wrong — you just haven't been given the tools.

I'm Dr Martha, a clinical psychologist and mother, and I'll help you see your child beneath the behaviour — and become the confident, grown-up parent they need.

My mission is to make the
science of psychology accessible
to all and support parents to see
their child beneath the behaviour.

It Starts With You

The Confident Parent courses are practical and video-based, created to help you navigate the early years (18mos-10yrs) with your sanity intact.

Created by me Dr Martha, a clinical psychologist and mother, these easy-to-follow guides are straightforward and evidence-based.

Course topics cover sleep, fussy eating, potty training, challenging behaviours and tantrums, as well as bathtimes, bedtimes and toothbrushing, medical visits, building frustration tolerance, tidying up, navigating feelings, choosing your childcare, sibling relationships, dealing with dummies and more!

I walk you through these subjects in over 70 short videos to help you become more confident with your parenting whilst setting your child up to be emotionally resilient, cooperative and have a strong connection with you.

  • "Dr Martha gives little people a voice. She articulates with great brevity and clarity, what our children are not yet able to understand or communicate themselves. She offers practical advice through warmth and kindness and is completely free of judgment."

  • “I am a recovering shouty parent, I have followed Dr Martha for a while on Instagram and find her to be empathetic, realistic and accessible.”

  • “Dr Martha is a guiding light in a noisy field. I find her advice to be grounded in evidence, I learn new ways of looking at things and practical tips, and she is endlessly empathetic and compassionate to human frailties.”

  • "Dr Martha has such a lovely way of breaking down the information to help you really see things from your little ones' perspective. She just gets it."

  • “Dr Martha’s insights have been transformative to both my understanding of what a parent’s role is and also how to execute this in terms of practical techniques. The penny dropped when my eldest started copying the sharing approach Dr Martha recommended with her younger sister.”

  • "Dr Martha really does talk sense - her explanations are clear, relatable and make sense of a child’s perspective. She shows how we adults can more helpfully behave and respond appropriately and respectfully, with connection, and model behaviour for our children."

  • “Informative, life-changing information delivered in a logical, reassuring and practical way. These lessons are invaluable in improving day-to-day interactions with our children and learning about and being kind to ourselves.”

  • “[Dr Martha] helps me see I have so much more control than I realised as I can make small changes to my own behaviour and reactions that make a massive difference to not only the day-to-day interactions but also help my girls learn how to handle their own emotions and resolves conflicts as they get older.”
