Education
Rachel Sklar is the founder of the Parent Coaching and Education business, ViaParenting, and the creator of the new CD "Rock Your Inner Mama: Guidance for Mindful Parenting." As a PCI Certified Parent Coach®, Social Worker and Loving Mom, Rachel teaches the art of parenting from the core, which is no easy task amidst the parenting propaganda that riddles her Silicon Valley community. With her support, parents find peace, joy, and harmony in their parenting experience, rather than succumbing to the external pressures of doing it "right." In her practice, Rachel strategizes with parents toward transformational and sustainable results that honor every family member. Overwhelmed parents walk away with parenting plans that are unique to their family and experience the gift of tuning into their inner voice. Rachel calls her business ViaParenting because she believes parenting transports and transforms us as human beings. ViaParenting brings mindfulness and forward thinking into plain view for parents who are struggling with discipline issues, sibling rivalry, work-life balance, extreme temperaments and the many other curve balls that life throws parents.
