Why Would You Need a Parenting Coach?
About Me
Hi, I’m Mayra!
I’m a mom of a wonderful boy and a certified parenting coach with a bachelor’s degree in psychology.
When I first had my little one, I didn’t know what the years would bring for my parenting journey. As my son grew and his personality flourished, I began to realize I often didn’t understand the reasoning behind his behavior. My inability to understand him made it difficult to help him control or understand his own emotions and behavior. And even more importantly, I struggled to understand how I was feeling as a parent or how to control my own feelings.
So I set out to learn everything I could about parenting and understanding children- their emotions, and behaviors. I obtained a bachelor’s degree in Psychology and became certified by the Jai Institute for Parenting as a Parenting Coach. I made it my goal to equip other parents with the knowledge and tools they need to foster strong, healthy relationships and raise confident, resilient children.
Whether you’re a parent-to-be getting ready for your new parenting journey, or an established parent already struggling with unanswered questions about your child, I want to help. Together we will work through your parenting struggles and discover the why behind your child’s behaviors and emotions. My ultimate goal is to empower you in your parenting journey.
“Breaking my generational trauma pattern was one of the most challenging but rewarding changes that I have ever made. My passion and goal as a coach is to bring this opportunity to other parents who are struggling with their parenting and let them know that we can do it. We can tackle this journey together and make it enjoyable for their kid and healing for their emotional health.”

"Trabajar con Mayra ha sido un placer. Su dedicación e interés por nuestra familia ¡han sido espectaculares! Desde el minuto 1 se volcó en nosotros y en ayudarnos. Mayra es de esas personas que te hacen sentir escuchadas y que te hacen sentir cómoda para hablar. Su voz y su actitud son sumamente relajantes; además, te da trucos para bajar la ansiedad, no sólo como mamá, sino como persona. Después de nuestras sesiones, sé que he mejorado como madre. El ambiente en casa es mucho mejor, y noto que mis hijos se sienten más libres y confiados, porque saben que mamá puede lidiar mejor con todo. Mayra me ha ayudado a abrir mis sentiemientos para con mis hijos, y me ha ayudado a entender que ser vulnerable no es ser peor madre, es simplemente ser humana y es bueno que mis hijos vean que soy como ellos también. A raíz de esto, ¡incluso mi vida de pareja ha mejorado! Además, es genial que podamos hacer las sesiones bilingües con español e inglés, porque en casa se usan las dos lenguas y así es mucho más natural. También valoro mucho su flexibilidad en todo momento. Para mí, Mayra ha sido una guía y una mentora, nunca podré agradecerle todo lo que ha hecho por nosotros."

“I'm so glad I had the chance to have Mayra as a coach. As a parent to be I was struggling with many unknowns and fears but she guided me to find the answers and understand that my fears were part of this new adventure. I feel more prepared now to receive my little girl with more self-confidence. The coaching even helped me improve my relationship with my partner and even my parents. She has the right tools to help you. I highly recommend her.”
