The Empowered Kids Academy

Every child deserves to achieve the greatest possible level of success. The role of every adult is to help children develop their own potential so they may grow into the best possible version of themselves.
We support children and adults in childhood growth and development through positive leadership.

 

Our Vision

We believe that all children should be provided with the opportunity to grow and develop in their own manner, according to their own rhythm, and in an environment that’s healthy and harmonious—so they can become an empowered, balanced adult of integrity who lives a life crowned with success.  

Our Mission

To equip and guide adults and children through workshops and customized sessions based on experience and proven techniques that are clear, simple and effective.

Our primary objective is to provide guidance for adults so they can solidify their role as positive leaders, thereby encouraging children’s growth through compassion and a life lived side-by-side in harmony and respect.

Our Values

We deeply believe in the benefits of parenting and positive communication because they enable adults and children to live in perfect harmony, in a context of integrity and mutual trust.

The quality of the coaching provided by the Child Academy is grounded in three values that we believe to be fundamental:

Integrity

The quality of your relationship with your child is of heartfelt importance to us, which is why we’re committed to providing you with coaching that’s focused on your specific needs—so you can reach your objectives and live in peace and harmony.

Passion

Our greatest dream is for all children to be able to grow up in an environment of compassion so they can develop empathy, autonomy and venture out into their adult lives with confidence and enthusiasm. For all adults, our dream is that they might be guides and positive leaders in the lives of their children.

Commitment

We’re committed to partnering with you and your children and to providing you with all the tools you’ll need to succeed—because your success is our success!

About the founder

Valérie Gotteland

Valérie discovered the benefits of parenting and positive communication through her own family experience more than seven years ago.

Thanks to her years of work on the ground with families, educators and children, along with the extensive, multifaceted training she received, Valérie has become a passionate specialist in parenting and positive communication.

This philosophy meshes with her deepest personal convictions. Her ideology is grounded in the fact that our role as adults is to help children discover and understand the world they live in so they can find their place and inhabit it as their very best selves.

It’s with ardor and enthusiasm that she shares this passion with adults and children to enable them to live together in joy, happiness and harmony.

Moreover, her complete mastery of the subject matter, together with her playful approach, make her coaching sessions both stimulating and effective, shaking up common beliefs about parenting in the process.

Testimonials

Here are some testimonials from parents who have followed our coaching sessions:

« Valérie showed me effective strategies for opening a huge door between my life and that of my children.
I acquired tools that have worked 100% of the time since first grade and allowed me to be calmer and, more than anything, have allowed me to experience positive development as a person and as a parent. Having tools for a more peaceful life and a more harmonious relationship with my children—that’s priceless! Thank you. »

« A 5-star training programme!! Thanks to Valérie’s group workshops, I learned simple, useful and extremely effective tips that are helpful to me on a day-to-day basis with my 3 young children. The interactions with the other parents also helped me realize just how much we have in common when it comes to the reality of our lives, and how good we are at coming up with solutions together! Thank you, Valérie. »

Audrée

« Valérie’s workshop is a must for parents. Learning to understand your feelings and the feelings of your children isn’t necessarily self-evident when you become parents. The tools she teaches are very effective and her way of getting them across is grounded in everyday reality (work, time constraints, family life…). I recommend this training programme to all parents. »

« The workshop helped change so much the way I looked at my child. I have learned that a child should be treated with just as much respect than adults. With so much real life examples, I feel I am well equipped to foster a good self-esteem in my child and develop a good relationship between me and my child. I am very glad that I attended to this workshop and would recommend it to any parents who would strive to be a better one. »

« I recently completed the workshop at the WIWC given by Valérie Gotteland. I was interested in the book “How to Talk so Kids Will Listen and Listen so Kids Will Talk” for some time, however, my toddler kept me so busy that attending this workshop would finally force me to read it.
The material is presented in a very structured manner with plenty of examples on how to apply all the new tools, skills and techniques being discussed. The sharing time gave participants opportunities to not only share their experiences but get some advice from Valérie who has been applying this technique for quite some time in her own family and it shows! She always had clever ways to address any situations the room of mothers could throw at her.
I strongly recommend this workshop to any parent. I learned so many new ways of addressing the many struggles we all face in creating a harmonized family atmosphere.
Thanks again Valérie! »
