Kaj je coaching za starševstvo?

Izobraževanje staršev je čudovit vir in pomemben del tega, kar ponujam. A včasih enostavno ni dovolj. Ne seže v specifično dinamiko vašega odnosa z otrokom, vašo vzgojo, ravnanja ali vsakodnevne izzive.
Tu pride v poštev starševski coaching.

Pristopa celostno ter holistično in je osredotočeno na odnos. Razume, da otroci ne rastejo v vakuumu—so del povezanega sistema, ki ga oblikujejo skrbniki, okolje in vsakodnevne interakcije.

Coaching prav tako priznava, da niste starševski robot, ki sledi scenariju.

Imate svojo zgodovino, potrebe in stresorje—in ti štejejo.

What is the higher purpose of parenting coaching?

Kot coach vam stojim ob strani, ponujam refleksijo, vpoglede in stalno podporo, medtem ko krmarite po svoji edinstveni poti. Za vas ustvarjam varen prostor in vas motiviram za rast, da povečate svoje potenciale v starševski vlogi. 

Zavestno starševstvo je starševstvo, pri katerem starš skozi svoje čustvene, mentalne in duhovne lekcije, ki jih pridobi skozi osebni razvoj, postane tudi boljši starš. Poudarek pri zavestnem starševstvu je na regulaciji lastnih obnašanj, ravnanj, misli, čustev, komunikacije, obvladovanja stresa, sposobnosti motiviranja sebe in zastavljanja ciljev. Pri tem pa starš uporablja tudi orodja za koregulacijo z otrokom. 

What does parenting coaching help you with?

Razumeti vedenje vašega otroka skozi razvojno in čustveno perspektivo

Odzivati se mirno in v skladu z vašimi vrednotami (tudi v težkih dneh)

Graditi dolgoročno vizijo in samozavest kot starš

Razviti prilagojena orodja za vaše realne izzive 

Izboljšati komunikacijo v družini

Osvojiti starševske veščine 

Uspešno navigirati med delom, družino in časom zase

Razumeti svoje želje v starševski vlogi ter potrebe otroka

Zastavljati učinkovito starševsko strategijo

Razumeti ZAKAJ in dobiti poglobljeno razumevanje svojih reakcij

Prepoznati svoj starševski stil in v starševstvo uvesti več čuječnosti

Uživati v starševstvu

What is parenting coaching not?

Coaching ni mentorstvo.

To ni zgodba o mojem osebnem starševstvu.
 Tukaj sem, da vam pomagam razjasniti, kaj bo najbolje delovalo za vas. 

Coaching ni terapija. 

Nisem terapevt in ne diagnosticiram niti ne zdravim duševnih motenj in čustevnih ran starša ali otroka. 

Namesto tega vam lahko pomagam bolje razumeti vaše vedenje in razvoj vašega otroka, tako da lahko opravljate vlogo starša z večjo namero, empatijo in samozavestjo.

How does coaching with children/adolescents work?

Coaching se prilagodi otroku in je primeren od 7. leta starosti, pri čemer pa sodelovanje z otrokom/mladostnikom vedno poteka tudi v sodelovanju s staršem. 

Vsaj eden od staršev mora biti vključen v coaching proces otroka. Podpiše se coaching pogodba. Za starša toplo priporočam tudi pedagoško uro, da starš spozna svoj stil starševstva in razvojno stopnjo svojega otroka.

Kot coach moram biti vnaprej obveščena o morebitnih diagnozah, ki jih je otrok že prejel. 

Coaching se prilagodi tempu otroka. Priporoča se vsaj 6-mesečno sodelovanje z otrokom za konkreten rezultat. Ker gre za delo z mladoletno osebo, starš dobi poročilo po emailu po vsaki uri.

Coaching z mlajšimi otroci poteka 1x tedensko v živo. 

Delo z otroci zahteva visok nivo odgovornosti, etike in empatije. Z otrokom/mladostnikom se vedno dobim najprej na spoznavni uri, da zgradiva most zaupanja, s staršem pa opravim pogovor pred začetkom coaching procesa z otrokom. V coachingu uporabljam vaje za čuječnost. 


Saša Suhadolnik - Beautiful Mom



Jernej Picelj, CEO at ZaLife, father

"Last Friday, Urša and I had a pedagogical lesson with Saša. She helped us discover our parenting style, understand brain development in children (3 and 5 years old) and see what is really important now. We discussed specific situations together, and also looked into ourselves a little. But since another family member is on the way, we used the weekend to lay the foundation. According to Saša's idea, we wrote a family manifesto. A document by which we will live as a family. Not to be perfect, but to remember who we are, even when difficult days come. It contains values, rules and promises: respect, honesty, connection, responsibility. A manifesto that our children will build on and pass on. Thank you Saša, for the depth, clarity and peace that you brought to our home." You can watch my ZaLife podcast, where Saša was a guest, here. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DXHWLBQclP8

Mateja Čufer, Accounting, mother

"I turned to Saša when I found myself in a vicious circle in raising my daughters. The main challenge was that my daughters did not listen to me, they only responded when I raised my voice. I was looking for answers and lasting solutions. At Saša's pedagogical parenting class, I received much more than just theoretical advice. My partner and I took a test that showed our parenting style. We found that we are quite different in our approaches, which is probably the cause of inconsistency and problems with obedience. Saša showed us professionally and with feeling how to find common ground and reach compromises that support effective parenting. In addition, Saša helps me clear up my own childhood problems. With her support, I am now exploring the roots of the problem using various techniques and tools. I am learning how to set clear boundaries, establish family values, and improve my daughters' response without losing patience. Of course, my partner also supports me here. Saša's approach is also practically oriented. That is why I wholeheartedly recommend the pedagogical parenting class with coach Saša to everyone. "For parents who want to avoid disobedience, shouting, strengthen their parenting partnership, and build a harmonious relationship with their children and partner." Thank you, Saša, for your support, understanding, and invaluable advice!

Rebecca Svetina, CEO at Bilingual Buzz, mother

"Your work is like the flutter of a butterfly. You gave my son J. a technique for releasing anger in his coaching classes. When the teacher asked if anyone in the class knew how to deal with anger, J. stood up and demonstrated this technique. The teacher was impressed and told the whole class that they would now use this technique. Thank you for your work."

Ana Resnik, PR and Marketing Manager, Pax doo, mother

"Working with Saša was very pleasant and educational. In six meetings, we managed to identify triggers in different areas of my life, in the roles I live – as a leader, as a mother and as a wife. Triggers are tied to situations in which unclear personal boundaries lead to frustration and, consequently, an outburst. I saw that triggers are not a problem, they are just the last drop in a puddle of accumulated stress. Now my priority is to make sure that the puddle does not stagnate in my soul, which is helped by a corner of retreat and dedicated time to taking care of myself. As a chronic "helper", I thought that my weakness was primarily not setting boundaries for others, but Saša held up a mirror for me and I saw that in many cases I need to first feel myself and set boundaries for myself. It helps if you find a moment and honestly ask yourself: "Is this REALLY my circus? Am I REALLY called to take on THIS responsibility?" By taking on someone else's responsibility, I harm myself (because "I often think about my session with Saša). In each session, she showed me concrete tools with which I can cope with stress, build authentic relationships, and confidently express my needs and set boundaries. With tools such as visualization and sandwich communication, I strengthened my ways of dealing with stressful situations and expressing myself. I can say that I have progressed in all three roles, but above all, I have strengthened my inner peace. Therefore, I recommend working with Saša to anyone who feels that they want to take a step forward and live more fully in all the roles they have taken on and assigned, because Saša really dedicates herself to the individual and focuses on the whole person in all their various relationships."

Suzi Bell, Songwriter, Mom

"The parenting coaching that my husband and I did with Saša was so helpful. She is a great listener and asked insightful questions about our experiences with our toddler. She introduced us to our different parenting styles and how we can work together better to set boundaries for our son. It was a safe, non-judgmental space, Saša is really knowledgeable and easy to talk to."

Tea Kozar, Head of HR, Silco Slovenia

"I would like to personally thank the lecturer Saša Suhadolnik from the company Beautiful Mum, who prepared a lecture for mothers for us. Another wonderful soul who shares knowledge, faith and spreads strength. I warmly recommend that you welcome her in your company."

Sandra Kidrič, CEO Heart2Heart, Slovenia, mother

"Through her life experiences, Saša so naturally and unobtrusively illuminated certain life situations that happen to us women/mothers that now I myself see them differently. And when "other angles" of looking at certain situations open up to us, things become easier to solve. I recommend Saša's coaching to anyone who is faced with a time crunch, poor organization, imminent burnout, challenges in balancing work and family, as well as anyone who would like to learn to set boundaries and say NO!"

E.Š., Senior Account Manager, mother

"Our coaching really gave me so much. How to let go of worries, how to be there for my partner, and the insight that everything will really be okay. I was able to support and encourage my partner in a completely different way than I would have done the day before. And the insight that I cultivate patience with everyone and that my daughter can also wait until her partner is ready to talk to her. Thank you."

Mateja Pirc, Corporate Services Executive, London, future mother

"I am grateful from the bottom of my heart to Sasha for sharing with me a treasure trove of wisdom and techniques for managing fears. Her techniques are extremely practical, simple and feasible anywhere and anytime, and as such are the most effective for me. Since we work together, my fears have calmed down and when they creep in, I know what to do. Saša has an excellent feeling for the client's needs and guides you to the area that needs to be addressed first and accompanies you through the process. I never feel alone with my challenges , I know that Saša, as my coach, believes in and cheers for me."

Vesna Todorovič, AS&T Manager at Novartis, Slovenija, mama

"In its essence, Handbook Beautiful Mum summarizes everything that can burden not only mothers, but everyone who sails through life simultaneously in different roles. The real content is hidden in the lines and between the questions. This is a reading that you can retreat to in times of crisis moments and helps you find focus and inner peace. Today and for tomorrow."

Urška Podlogar Kos, landscape architect, Slovenia, mother

"It is incredibly easy to read Beautiful Mum, where real life teachings are written down clearly, focused, with a gentle and soft address of a mother who, in this crazy dynamic of everyday life, all too often gets the feeling that her essence is overlooked, forgotten, unimportant. This handbook returns dignity, respect and value to mothers."

Laziena Hodge, Scheduling Specialist at Disney, USA, mother

"When I had problems with setting boundaries, the right coach came my way! Sasha's coaching lit a fire in me — I made a commitment to start taking myself into account. Working with Sasha is easy, I feel understood and supported during every meeting. She fearlessly shares her insights and opinions, which pushes me to grow. Her coaching guides me to make healthier choices and clear boundaries. I now have tools to help me identify and set boundaries and connect better with myself. This helps me better understand my uncomfortable feelings, when they appear. Saša provides me with a safe space in which I can explore my boundaries and put my well-being first."

Iryna Ly, Instructor Heart and Stroke Foundation, Canada

"Saša has a lot of knowledge in her field, she is very compassionate and understanding. The wise advice I received during our sessions is useful and actionable, and she explained the steps in an applicable way, which I really appreciate. I would recommend her services in a heartbeat. After the coaching class, I felt very motivated, empowered and reassured about the steps I need to take to achieve my goals and that's exactly what I needed! Thank you very much, Saša!!!

Saša V., CEO, Slovenia, mother

"Saša explains in a pleasant and informative way the complex process of setting boundaries and all the necessary tools to achieve them. She is a professional and compassionate mentor/coach. I definitely recommend her."

Nina Hari, CEO at Hani Marketing, mother

"Hey, Saša. I often think of you and our meetings. And since it was precisely because of these meetings that I introduced a new habit of writing a diary, I would like to take this opportunity to thank you for your support. In the long term, I also want to pass this habit on to my children, because I think it is extremely important that they learn to be grateful for the little things and not take life so for granted. Thank you very much for being you."

Tjaša G., enterpreneur, mother

"I would like to take this opportunity to share my thoughts with you. I recently listened to the podcast you recorded with Aleš, and I also remember you from the show Zvezdana many years ago. I was very moved by your story, and especially your change. I congratulate you on your personal progress over all these years, becoming an entrepreneur, and continuing your mission."

Maja Lapanje, Marketing Consultant, mother

"Dear Saša Suhadolnik, keep going! I'm sincerely glad that our paths crossed, a great personal experience."

Lux Hettiyadura, PCC coach educator

"Reflecting on our time together, I am deeply appreciative of your intentional presence in every interaction. Your meaningful questions, insightful contributions, shared experiences, and constructive feedback have greatly enriched this learning experience. Not only have you helped me grow as a coach educator, but you've also played an integral role in the ongoing development of the CADP Certification program. It has truly been an honor to collaborate with you."

Mojca Gašparić Rednak, teacher at Lesce Primary School

In March 2026, Mag. Saša Suhadolnik prepared a lecture for parents and employees of our school entitled "Parents under stress". At the lecture, we, the participants, had the opportunity to learn about ways and specific techniques for recognizing stress, setting limits, managing it and reducing it. The lecturer also reminded us of how important it is to recognize signs of stress in ourselves in a timely manner and regulate them when entering into relationships. When a parent regulates themselves, the child has the opportunity and space to learn to regulate themselves in the relationship, or as the lecturer says, "Change in a child begins with a change in the parent." Those present praised the lecture and stated that the lecturer was understandable, concrete, clear and compassionate. In addition, they gained useful, applicable and new knowledge at the lecture. As some stated, the lecturer reminded them of the basics that we forget in the fast-paced pace of life and helped them with guidelines and concrete techniques on how to help their child, partner and themselves in a stressful situation. The participants liked the concrete examples from practice and the message that as a parent you look at yourself, take time for yourself, stop. In this way, you more easily establish balance within yourself and as such enter into relationships with your child and other people.
