So often I have heard people say, too bad parenting doesn’t come with a handbook. While that is true, there are lots of great resources to help you wade through the sometimes murky waters of parenting. I have recently found one such positive parenting resource that really stands out, the sponsor of this post- Parent Chat Videos. If reading is not your thing or you just want to learn more, you will love these wonderful parenting videos that promote Mindful Parenting. The online parenting classes all feature Celeste Gonsalves. She is very personable and has a wonderful way of helping parents connect with children and improve relationships with her elevated parenting tips.

Parenting Mindset Shift
You may have stumbled across this humorous statement before, “If parenthood came with a GPS, it would mostly say ‘recalculating.’”
Well, that is the idea here. Parent Chat Videos will help you with recalculating by creating a mindset shift so you can employ parenting methods that will produce better results for you and your children. We are talking about making simple changes to achieve new elevated outcomes.
Whether you want to call it respectful parenting, elevated parenting, mindful parenting, or positive parenting, you will love her online classes. All of her parenting concepts, approaches, and goals will help you connect and improve communication with your child for better results.

Celeste Gonsalves believes that we can all make small changes to modify our parenting.

Her proven techniques will help you avoid frustrations and reach your desired outcome.
The online parenting classes cover many different parenting topics. What I really love about these parenting videos is that Celeste Gonsalves is really great about having a clear actionable focus for each video. So she is not talking about esoteric ideas and principles of parenting. She is providing parenting solutions for real problems we all face as parents. She also shares her own real life examples so you can see how these mindful parenting approaches actually work as well as when and how to use them.
After just one short video, you will probably find yourself a more confident parent already. It is nice to have someone in your corner helping you build effective parenting skills.
Parenting Goals
I love how each Parent Chat video has a clear parenting goal. Each online parent class is designed so you can improve parenting situations and fix problems.
One of my favorite parent classes “Get Your Child or Teen to Talk.” These are both such prevalent problems that almost all parents encounter. Celeste she does such a fantastic job sharing a story and illustrating practical solutions.
Personal Experience
Both of my children are teens. I feel myself groping around for questions that will get them to talk. I want them to really open up and share stories and feelings, instead of one word answers. In “Get Your Child or Teen to Talk”, Celeste reminded me of my child’s point of view upon getting in the car after a long day at school. She also clearly understood my point of view as the parent. I appreciated that she knows our battery of questions is our attempt to connect. I also appreciated the reminder that the kiddos may be tired and feel overwhelmed by too many questions, too fast.
This weekend we did some fun crafting as the video suggested. She had pointed out in the video that if you can get your child engaged in a creative activity, they can relax and open up to listening and sharing more easily. She also suggested opening up and sharing a story to get the ball rolling. Naturally, my kids responded to my story sharing their opinions and questions on the situation. And pretty soon they were sharing their own stories. I found it be much easier to get them chatting about things that were going on at school and books that they were reading with this method. It is so nice to hear their opinions on things. I also know it is an important way to maintain positive relationship where information flows freely.
A few more examples of online parenting classes I loved:
- Teen’s First Love AND Heartbreak
- B.O.U.N.C.E coping skill to deal with negative influences
- Instant Happy Child
- Managing Screen Time
