I'M IN! JOIN THE CLUB >

CALM MAMA  —  CALM KID  —  CALM FAMILY

In Calm Mama Club, you learn the Calm Mama Process.

This isn’t a program that works just for toddlers, or while your kids are in elementary school, or for teens. 

The Calm Mama Process is a parenting model that you only learn once and then apply it over and over for years and years.

The Calm Mama Process is a simple 4-step parenting system. 

The 4 steps of the Calm Mama Process are CALM. CONNECT. LIMIT SET. CORRECT.

Calm: addresses why you get upset in the first place, and gives you simple tools to quickly move from overwhelm to calm.

Connect: gives you deep insight into why your kid is acting the way they are acting, and simple strategies to coach them through their feelings and actions so they change their behavior from the inside out.

Limit Set: teaches you how to get your kids to listen to you, without you having to repeat yourself 5x, and giving them a bunch of reminders.

Correct: helps you be ok when your kid makes a mistake because you know what to do and you know mistakes are good.

Whenever any circumstance or behavior happens, you’ll use the Calm Mama Process to resolve the situation in a peaceful, mutually respectful way.

"My daughter told me she’s proud of me for taking this class. I asked her why and she said, 'Because it shows you care about being better at being a mom. You yell less and when we are having big feelings or bad behavior you take us aside to work through our emotions.'."

—Mori Leshem

“I LOVE being coached by you—it has truly made a huge impact in my life. I truly feel that the last few weeks—there has been a “shift”in my life, in the kids, how I parent… it’s been so so so GOOD—and something that I can see we have all benefited from. I can SEE and feel the benefits. Thank you so much.”

I can’t tell you how grateful I am for every single piece of advice you’ve given me. I have always felt so heard and supported by you. I know that it’s your job, but I never felt like I was your work.

Working with Darlynn transformed how I think about parenting. Our whole family life has more ease, even though we tackle tough topics more often. We just came back from a family vacation that was one of the best we've had. I'm a happy parent of two teenage girls! I recommend Darlynn's course to all my friends.

Meet Your Coach: Darlynn Childress

“Peace in my home is missing.” This is what I wrote in my journal when my son was 4 years old.

I was struggling as a mom so much back then. I was shocked by my rage, my resentment, my fear, and the sheer overwhelm of it all.

At my lowest point, I finally admitted I needed help. My decision to figure out a different way of being a mom led me on a twisty-turvy road of healing and learning and growing.

I get it. I've done it. And I'm here to guide you on your own twisty-turvy road of healing and learning and growing.

I do this work because I know the feeling of falling into bed at night, flooded with sadness, anger, disappointment, guilt and regret. I've been the mom who scares herself with the depth of her own anger and gets stuck in shame.

I started this program because I want to help every mom I can get out of her pain, sadness and overwhelm so she can enjoy her kids and get the peace that's missing.

I've been there, Mama. And I know exactly how to get you the peace and calm and hope and joy that you're craving. 

Join Calm Mama Club today to start your twisty-turvy road to healing. I’m ready for you.
