Excellent Coaching Markers

Excellent Coaching Markers

To stand out from your parent coaching competitors, you must promote the characteristics, skills and services that make you an ideal coach. Although it’s important to let would-be clients know about the life coaching services you offer, you also want to make it clear why they should hire you. Make these five considerations a regular part of your coaching business to attract potential clients and build your client base.

Five Markers of an Excellent Parenting Coach

1. Clearly sees underlying behaviors. The ability to see beyond the surface allows you to identify the root causes of parenting challenges so they can be appropriately and effectively addressed.

2. Connects with parents and children. Both children and their parents connect with you as a parenting coach, facilitating a coach-client relationship that’s based on mutual trust and respect.

3. Offers a personalized approach. You realize that no two families are alike. Each family’s cultural and religious beliefs impacts how you coach them. You learn about the family before helping them create a plan to overcome the challenges faced.

4. Provides information and resources. Clients benefit from the extra information and resources you provide them. Depending on the goals they’re working on, you offer information that can aid families in achieving their goals and enhance the coaching experience.

5. Forms a supportive family alliance. Your coaching style and techniques make parents feel that you understand and support their goals.

Promote Yourself and Your Life Coaching Business

Setting yourself apart from the competition will help you build your parent coaching business. As you include these considerations, coaching clients will connect with you in a meaningful way that leads you to develop a successful coach-client relationship. Your consistency in these areas will speak volumes, rewarding you with a parent coaching business that achieves steady growth.
