When we grow into the adult
that our inner child needs
Miraculously, our kids
receive exactly the parents
that they need.
Parenting as an inner work
The foundations course
-
If you find yourself in power struggles, endless fighting or feeling lost in front of your child
-
If you're wondering how in spite of all the inner work you’ve done - it's still so hard to stay centered with the ones you care for the most
-
If you're searching for a way to stay connected to yourself and to your kids, even when your child really pushes your buttons
-
If you are making an effort to be gentle and attentive with your children, but your inner voice is not gentle and attentive toward you… it is so exhausting to try to use the “right tools” when the heart is flooded, and then to feel guilt afterward for having reacted in anger. You do not need another theory about parenting; you need a safe space in which to practice listening and compassion – first and foremost toward yourselves.
This group was created to turn this journey into a journey of growth—together.
It is a practical course, shaped together with its participants, in response to your needs and challenges.
This is not a series of lectures; it is a laboratory for real life—we will not study theory alone, but work with the real conflicts that happened at home this very morning, and practice ways and tools that help us stay connected to the heart when things get tough.
The goal is not to leave with a notebook full of summaries, but with a felt sense of change and tools that truly take root in everyday life.
The course weaves together teachings from the world of Nonviolent Communication (developed by Dr. Marshall Rosenberg) with the approach of “Miraculous parenting” (by Shai Orr).
This combination allows for a deep, compassionate, and insightful way of seeing our humanity, alongside practical, applicable tools for creating transformation in how we see, relate to, and respond—to ourselves and to our children.
Learning as part of a supportive group enables us to go deeper and to practice a language and a path that can turn the parenting journey, with all its gifts and challenges, into a journey of growth, healing, and development.
It is not only about parenting, it's about coming closer, and more loving with who you are.

Hi, I’m Noa.
I’m not here to teach you what is right or wrong in raising children.
I’m here to support the parts within you for whom something “isn’t working” and who are asking for a response. I know firsthand the challenges of parenting, the constant search for balance between caring for our children and tending to our own needs.
Through NVC, and the approach of “Miraculous parenting,” and working with the inner child as well as the benevolent inner adult, we will learn together to decipher what your children—outer and inner—are truly asking for.
I've been learning and sharing NVC since 2014
Facilitating group processes since 2010, worked as a teacher and educator in alternative pre-schools from 2007 and I remember being busy with the parent I would like to be, since she was a child (1984, to be precise).
That's my child
That's me
Holding all of us at the same time
is what this work is all about
And that's my inner child
The course includes:
10 Online Sessions
We meet online every week
each session is 2 and 1/4 hours
we learn the tools and the essence of the approach, and hands-on practice
Online community space
Our own community space will be available to you throughout the course -
you can drop in at your own pace -
To keep learning between the sessions
to ask questions, connect with one another, have access to extra contents and get support with real time challenges.

Practice in a safe container
We practice in small groups, each with challenges from our own life, and support each other through our practicing - in this way we actually practice the art of parenting ourselves and others in a nourishing way, within a safe container

At the end of the course, you will be invited to join our alumni community. An online learning community that supports integration and continued study. Because it takes a village to raise a child— and a parent, too.
