THE BRAIN ESSENTIALS OF RAISING GREAT HUMANS

JOIN THE WAITlist

You’re juggling work, home, and an endless to-do list, while trying to raise a kind, emotionally aware child. But in the chaos, there are meltdowns (theirs and yours), sibling squabbles, testing limits, and endless back-and-forths. You want to parent with patience and connection, but you’re always “on” with no time to reset. That’s where The Brain Essentials makes it easier. You don’t need more time; you just need a little help. And I’ve got you.

ARE YOU TRYING TO PARENT WELL- BUT LIFE IS JUST TOO FULL?

You want strategies that fit into your real life, not theories that leave you guessing.


You love learning but need real tools

They’re loud, emotional, and wear you down. You want to stay calm, but in the moment, it’s hard to know what to do.


The meltdowns are draining

With so much on your plate, there’s barely time to think, let alone figure out tricky behaviour.


You’re juggling too much

NOW LET ME GUESS...

This is me! A real parent, a real teacher, in real life. I want to show you that calmer days, deeper connection, and fewer meltdowns are totally achievable. I’ve done it myself, and I’m here to help you do it too.


Hi, I’m Victoria Jenkins, a qualified teacher, parent educator, and creator of The Brain Essentials of Raising Great Humans.

With over 20 years’ experience teaching up to 450 students each week, I see firsthand how today’s busy, screen-filled world is affecting our kids. Not because parents don’t care, but because they’re overwhelmed.

That’s why I created simple, science-backed tools that work for real families. I’m here to help you raise emotionally healthy, connected, resilient kids, even on your busiest days.

Because you deserve a family life that feels calmer, easier, and more connected.
The parenting results you’ve been craving aren’t out of reach. I’ve achieved them myself, and now I’ll show you how to transform:

ARE YOU READY TO RAISE GREAT HUMANS—AND ENJOY THE JOURNEY TOO?








Yes—this course was made for busy, stretched parents. Everything is short, practical, and focused on helping you create more calm, not more pressure.

Will this work if I’m already overwhelmed or busy?

The course runs over 12 weeks, with short videos each week. You’ll need less than 20 minutes and the tools fit into real life, without adding to your mental load.

How much time will I need?

This course is ideal for parents of children aged 2–10, but the tools and insights can support you before and  beyond those years.

What age is this course best suited for?

AND JUST IN CASE YOUR WERE WONDERING...

No problem. You can watch the videos anytime, from anywhere. The content is yours for 12 months, so you can go at your
own pace.



What if I miss a week or are away during the course?

Not at all. It’s for caring parents who want to raise emotionally intelligent, resilient kids—and feel proud of the way they’re doing it.

Is this course only for “struggling” parents?

Nope! All core content is pre-recorded and flexible. You’ll also get access to optional live group support calls if you want personal help or connection.

Do I need to attend anything live?

Renee, mum of three (ages 3, 7, and 9)

Kate, Mum OF TWO (AGES 6 and 8)

"I see both of my kids differently now. Instead of banging my head against a brick wall and trying to get the kids to do what I want them to do, my way, I can now see them for who they are and meet them where they're at. There is much less resistance and defiance. "

Over the years, I’ve helped hundreds of parents feel more confident, calm, and connected—and now, they’re experiencing real transformation with 'The Brain Essentials of Raising Great Humans'. Here’s what PARENTS ARE saying.

WHAT OTHER PARENTS ARE SAYING

"When the books and resources arrived, I realised I had done something truly special for myself. They are absolutely stunning! Then there's the videos, everything is so digestible! You watch a quick video, then have something easy to try."

“The NeuroTools and Brainbow made so much sense. I put up the magnets and my 4-year-old now tells me which colour brain she’s in. It’s changed how we connect.”


JACKIE, Mum OF TWO (AGES 9 and 11)

TANIA, Mum of TWO ( AGES 2 & 4)

“I felt like I was always doing too much, but getting nowhere. This course showed me how to simplify, stay calm, and connect with each child—without the guilt.”

“We were always second-guessing our parenting. This course gave us tools that work and helped us get on the same page as a couple. Game-changer!”

Ben & Maddy, parents of a 5-year-old

AROHA, mum of three (ages 5, 8, and 10)

“Before this course, I felt like I was constantly reacting and yelling. Now I actually understand what’s going on with my kids’ needs and wants, and I know what to say. I feel calm, and they’re calmer too.”

That's me!

End the day feeling like you’ve done a good job, not just survived



Enjoy a deeper, more connected relationship with your child



Be confident in your parenting choices (no more second-guessing)



Stay calm and steady when emotions run high



Feel proud of how you parent, especially in the tricky moments
