About Heather

Heather is known as The Parent Whisperer — helping parents build calmer, more connected relationships with their children from babies through to the teenage years.

Heather Gonzalez, The Parent Whisperer

The Parent Whisperer

Heather creates transformational parent coaching pathways for creating stronger, more connected relationships with teens through understanding, trust, and calm guidance.

Raised in a family of 11 children, Heather’s experience with caring for children began early. As the second eldest girl, she was often helping care for babies and younger siblings, and started babysitting at age 12 through the family’s community business known to locals. She later became a mother of three sons and has worked as a professional nanny for over 20 years, also becoming a coach at the same time.

Through her own life experiences, coaching journey, and years of supporting families, Heather understands the challenges parents face at every stage of parenting. She helps parents move from stress, frustration, and disconnection to calm, confidence, and deeper connection.

Heather is a CoachU Graduate, completed in October 2002, and an Internationally Certified Results Coach, certified on 11 February 2023. She also holds a Certificate in Counselling and has volunteered with Lifeline in a counselling support role.

Parenting changes as children grow

Heather believes parenting changes as children grow. Her approach supports parents to understand the stage their child is in:

  • 0–7 years: Parent as Teacher
  • 7–12 years: Parent as Administrator
  • 13–20 years: Parent as Coach

Heather’s passion is helping parents rediscover how instinctive and joyful parenting can be, while nurturing their babies, guiding their children, and coaching their teenagers into adulthood.

Using simple, heart-led processes, Heather helps parents focus on the vision they want for their family’s future, while creating practical steps to build more calm, respect, and connection at home.

Heather also has extensive experience with several modalities that heal the body and understands how to create a balanced healthy body and mind. Heather has no health issues and is physically and emotionally living empowered in her own life. This is why Heather is The Parent Whisperer.
