The Family Toolkit Series
Relevant, open-and-go parenting solutions for Catholic moms of differently-wired kids
It's not that motherhood is harder than you anticipated - not really.
You've read the parenting books. You've sought advice from friends and Facebook groups. You've even swallowed your pride (gulp) and asked your pastor for his insight.
But no matter what strategies you try, what charts you implement, what novenas or prayers you say
The house is a still a mess.
The behavior is still a struggle.
The battle with school (or food, or bedtime, or [fill in the blank]) remains.
And you wonder - not for the first time - what you're doing wrong.
You aren't doing anything wrong
And no, your children aren't broken.
Your children are unique and they have unique needs.
Their sensitivities
Their challenges
Their gifts and talents
Are characteristics neurotypical acquaintances and professionals don't really understand.
BOILER PLATE, SECULAR PARENTING STRATEGIES AREN'T GOING TO CUT IT FOR YOU.
You need practical, faith-based solutions that respect the intricacies of your family dynamic and flow from your Christian faith.
Introducing the Family Toolkit Series
Relevant, open-and-go parenting solutions for Catholic moms of differently-wired kids.
- If you've read the books, tried the charts, and maybe even done the Peaceful Parenting thing, but you still feel like you're not making any progress
- If you feel like you've got a handle on your child's needs, but you can't figure out why your strategies aren't working
- If you've worked really hard to set reasonable expectations, but the results have been lukewarm at best
Then the family toolkit series has a solution for you.
Hey, There
I'm Ginny, mom to three differently-wired kiddos. For the past decade, I've researched the complex nature of gifted and twice exceptional children through the lens of Catholic teaching. I created the toolkit series to serve Christian moms of curious, creative, intense children because I believe God gives children the exact mother they need to thrive.
The Family Toolkit Series will help you break through your parenting overwhelm and swap chaos out for peace.
When you browse the Family Toolkit collection, you'll find practical, faith-centered solutions tailored to your family's specific needs.

What's inside each Toolkit?
Research-backed and experience-based resources
Each toolkit includes over a decade's worth of experience and research-backed information. I've done the hard work of gathering, organizing, and implementing in my own home; all you have to do is open and go.
Practical support rooted in faith
You aren't just raising children - you're building the next generation of saints. Each family toolkit places an emphasis not just on growing in life, academic, or social skills, but on growth in grace and virtue - the aspect of our being that matters the most.
Concrete, data-driven strategies you can use immediately
No more wading through pages of information that aren't relevant to your family's needs. Each family toolkit includes a number of downloadable inventory sheets, pattern and behavior trackers, bullet journal pages, and the like designed to help you make informed, data-backed decisions.
My very favorite part about this toolkit was the fact that it gave Mark and I an opportunity to sit down to talk and pray together about our children. We had concrete questions to answer and the brainstorming sheets helped us clarify our thoughts and our vision, not only for our kids, but for our family as a whole.
