About Parent Wellbeing

Live. Love. Learn: Creating a more enriching and rewarding family life using the principles of psychology

Parent Wellbeing is all about nurturing, supporting and encouraging parents to improve their emotional wellbeing and the wellbeing of their families. Why? Because many parents are struggling, and we want to change that! 

Parents used to rely on the support of the community to help raise their children. Now we’re juggling more priorities with less support to fall back on. No wonder it’s a struggle! 

Drawing on sound psychological principles, Parent Wellbeing helps to fill the gap created by our new lifestyles. We do it by inspiring  motivating and challenging parents to become the best version of themselves so they can enjoy family life more than they thought possible.

We don’t advocate ‘one right way’ to parent.  We know that each parent has their own way of raising their children.

The key to being the best parent you can be is in controlling the one thing you really have control over: yourself. 

Being parents ourselves, we also know how time poor you are, so we provide the advice, inspiration and motivation to help you incorporate more wellness into your life.

Through our blog, online parenting courses and enewsletter, we can help you to:

  • Define how you want to raise kids

  • Develop confidence in raising children

  • Stop feeling guilty about your parenting choices

  • Stop worrying about whether you’re doing things the right way

  • Filter unwanted or unhelpful advice

  • Connect with other parents to learn from and share withFeel empowered, in control and confident

  • Enjoy parenting more than you thought possible

About Jodie Benveniste

Jodie Benveniste is a psychologist, parenting author, parenting expert, TEDx speaker and director of Parent Wellbeing.

Jodie is the author of four books including the highly acclaimed Full Belly: Comfort and inspiration for pregnancy and birth, Little Bundle: Comfort and inspiration for new parents, and The Parent Manifesto: How to create a parenting approach that's perfect for your family.

She has been featured on Today Tonight, The Morning Shows on Channel 7 and Channel 10, in The Australian, The Daily Telegraph, The Herald Sun, The Courier Mail, The Advertiser, The Sunday Mail, ABC and commercial radio, and in all the top parenting magazines.

She has consulted with a wide range of organisations including nab, Santos, Westfield and Kmart, and partnered with Officeworks on their Back to School campaign. Jodie has also worked with the Australian Government on the national project, ‘Engaging Families in the Early Childhood Development Story.’
 

She is Affiliate Lecturer in the School of Psychology at the University of Adelaide, and is Editorial Advisor for Family Fun Magazine. And was one of the few parenting experts invited to meet the Prime Minister of Australia Julia Gillard, not once but twice! 

With 20 years of experience, Jodie understands the problems that parents face today and knows how to help them effectively navigate a way through, without going crazy!
 
Jodie’s work is based on an understanding that all families are different and have unique needs, therefore no one parenting approach is right for all families.

Jodie brings a wealth of professional and personal experience to her work. She uses workshops, books, and speeches to guide and mentor parents. Her warmth, empathy and passion offer comfort, inspiration and insight.
