Emily Scott, PhD

My mission is to provide a nurturing space where parents can find the support, encouragement, and empowerment they need to navigate the challenges and celebrate the joys of parenting. Together, let's embrace the overwhelming, yet incredibly rewarding adventure of parenthood. Having earned a PhD in Education Leadership 2015, my passion for understanding the complexities of childhood development led me to pursue additional graduate studies in Early Childhood Education and Childhood Development, as well as a Certificate in Child Psychology, Trauma Informed Care for Coaches, and Adverse Childhood Experiences. Driven by a desire to offer tangible support to fellow parents, I became a Certified Parenting Coach through the Jai Institute for Parenting. Additionally, in order to provide the best learning experience for parents, I also am a Certified Life Coach.
