Is this course for you?

If any of these sound familiar, you're in the right place.

img bucket 1

You asked them to put their shoes on twelve times. Then you started yelling.

You started the morning calm. You reminded once, twice, five times. By the twelfth time, you lost it. Now everyone is late, your child is in tears, and you're driving to school wondering why something so simple has to be this hard. You go to bed replaying it, thinking: "I shouldn't have yelled."

img bucket 3

You tried the sticker charts. You tried gentle parenting. Nothing worked.

You've read the books. You've tried the reward systems, the time-outs, the calm-voice approach. None of it sticks. You watch other parents use these strategies and it works for them, but not for your child. You're starting to wonder if the problem is you.

img bucket 2

A teacher emailed about your child's behaviour, and your heart sank.

You saw the subject line and your stomach dropped. Another note about disruptions, another conversation where you feel like you have to defend your kid. You know they're smart and kind. You just don't know how to get other people to see what you see.

What You'll Learn

Understanding the ADHD Brain

  • Why your child "won't listen" even though they genuinely want to, and what's actually happening in their brain
  • The 30% rule: Why your 7-year-old has the self-control of a 5-year-old, and how to adjust your expectations
  • How to tell the difference between wilful defiance and neurological difficulty
  • Why standard parenting tools (sticker charts, time-outs, even gentle parenting) keep failing your child

Calming the Big Emotions

  • How to de-escalate a meltdown without yelling, bribing, or giving in
  • What to do when your child hits, throws, or screams, while keeping everyone safe
  • How to respond when your child spirals over small corrections or perceived rejection
  • A system for identifying your child's triggers before the meltdown starts

Building a Daily Life That Works

  • How to get through mornings and bedtime without repeating yourself twelve times
  • How to set boundaries that your child can actually follow (using the 3 C's: Clarify, Connect, Collaborate)
  • What to do when your child is "well-behaved" at school but explosive at home
  • How to help your child navigate friendships, sibling conflicts, and screen time

Taught By:

Jess VanderWier

Registered Psychotherapist & Mom with ADHD

🌟 Trusted by [[FOLLOWERS]] parents on Instagram!

Jess is a registered psychotherapist who has spent years working with children and adults with ADHD, in her practice and in her own home. She has ADHD herself, and she's married to someone with ADHD too. So when she says "I get it," she means it.

Her approach to ADHD parenting goes beyond managing behaviour. She helps you understand why your child's brain works the way it does, so you can stop fighting against their wiring and start working with it. Everything in this course is built around connection first. Because when your child feels safe with you, the strategies actually stick.

Why Parents Choose This Course

Your Plan to Become Their Confident Guide

icon responsive approach

Watch, Don't Just Read
Jess models every strategy on camera. Her tone, her pacing, what she does when a child pushes back. You'll see how co-regulation actually looks and sounds, not just read a description of it.

icon practical tools

The 3 C's Framework
Every strategy in this course is organized around a simple, memorable framework: Clarify, Connect, Collaborate. When you're in the middle of a meltdown, you don't need a textbook. You need three steps you can actually remember.

icon comprehensive modules

A Troubleshooting Library You'll Use for Years
Module 6 is a reference library of 13 short videos covering specific challenges: lying, toileting, misophonia, negative self-talk, fading friendships. Jump straight to the problem you're facing and get a focused answer in minutes.

icon lifetime access

Designed for Overwhelmed Brains
Most lessons are 3-6 minutes. There's a Quick Start Path if you're in crisis. There's an audio version if you can't sit down to watch. This course was built for the parent who can barely get through the day, let alone watch hours of video.

icon age

Created by a Therapist Who Lives It
Jess doesn't just study ADHD. She has ADHD. She parents alongside a partner with ADHD. The strategies in this course have been tested in her own kitchen on her own chaotic mornings.

icon expert guidance

Grows With Your Child
The questions you have about your 4-year-old will be different than your 9-year-old. Come back to the troubleshooting library, the workbook, and the daily life modules at every new stage. Your access doesn't expire.

Frequently Asked Questions

img faq adhd
Why should I pay for this course when there are ADHD parenting books for $15-20?

Books give you information. This course gives you demonstration. The difference is watching Jess model a de-escalation in real time (her tone, her body language, how she responds when a child pushes back) versus reading a script on paper and hoping you get the delivery right. You'll also get a comprehensive workbook, 7+ printable tools (including The Meltdown Map and de-escalation scripts), and a troubleshooting library you can search by specific problem. Books explain concepts. This course shows you how to do it.

My child hasn't been formally diagnosed. Is this still for me?

Yes. This course is designed for parents of children with diagnosed ADHD and parents who suspect their child may have ADHD. Jess covers the overlap between ADHD, anxiety, and trauma responses, and the strategies taught here support any child who struggles with emotional regulation, impulsivity, or executive function challenges. That said, this course cannot replace a formal diagnosis. Jess recommends a comprehensive psychological assessment if you're unsure.

My child is [age]. Is this the right age range?

The course is designed for parents of children ages 4-9. Many of the strategies (visual supports, scaffolding, co-regulation) are effective across a broader range, but the scenarios, scripts, and developmental expectations are calibrated for this age window.

I have ADHD too. Will I actually be able to finish this course?

Jess has ADHD herself and designed this course with overwhelmed brains in mind. Most lessons are 3-6 minutes long. There's a Quick Start Path if you need help right now and can't commit to the full course. There's an audio-only version you can listen to while driving, cooking, or folding laundry. And every lesson ends with one small "Tiny Task." Not a full overhaul of your parenting.

How long are the lessons?

Core lessons average at 3-6 minutes. Troubleshooting videos in Module 6 are about 2-4 minutes. The entire course is over 3.5 hours, but it's designed to be watched in small pieces instead of in one sitting.

What's the Quick Start Path?

If you're in crisis mode and need strategies right now, the Quick Start Path highlights a small set of lessons marked QSP that give you the most critical tools first. You can come back and watch the rest when you're ready.

Will this course tell me about medication for ADHD?

No. Medication can be a valuable part of an ADHD treatment plan, but it's outside the scope of this course. Jess recommends speaking with your child's healthcare provider about medication options. This course focuses on parenting strategies, environmental supports, and the parent-child relationship.

Can I rewatch the lessons?

Yes. You have ongoing access to all course content (videos, workbook, and printable tools). You can revisit any lesson at any time, on any device.

Is this course self-paced?

Yes. There are no scheduled sessions or deadlines. Watch at your own speed, in whatever order works for you. Many parents start with the Quick Start Path and then circle back to Module 1.

What's your refund policy?

You have 30 days to try the course. If you've completed 50% or less of the content and aren't satisfied, contact us for a full refund.
