A woman sits at a dining table, looking at her laptop with a thoughtful expression. Two children are in the background, one girl smiling and running towards the woman, and a boy with dark hair wearing a red shirt facing away. The room has a cozy, lived-in feel with a bookshelf, framed pictures on the wall, and a potted plant.

Does it feel like…

  • You’ve said the same thing five times… and somehow it still didn’t land

  • Mornings, transitions, or bedtime feel like a full workout

  • You’ve become the full-time referee between siblings

  • Calm moments can switch to chaos in seconds

  • Getting out the door deserves a gold medal

  • You’ve Googled “why won’t my child listen” more than once

  • You’re trying so hard to stay calm… and sometimes end up losing it

You might be thinking…

  • “Why is everything turning into a battle lately?”

  • “Nothing I try seems to stick…”

  • “What actually works for a child like mine?”

  • “Why does this feel like hard mode parenting?”

  • “How did that escalate so fast?”

  • “We were just fine five minutes ago…”

Hi, I’m Anaymee.

I believe every parent has wished—at least once—that their child came with a manual.

I believe kids do best when they feel understood—and that parents deserve more than just trial and error (and a lot of Googling).

I support children with ADHD or autism and their families, helping you move from daily struggles to more calm, connection, and confidence at home.

My approach is collaborative, playful, and solution-focused—using play as a natural way for kids to learn and build skills without it feeling like “work”. 

Together, we create a personalized “Kiddos Guide” so you’re not left guessing, but have clear, practical strategies that actually work—bringing more calm, more connection, and yes… a few more giggles along the way.
