You don’t have to parent the same way you were parented - you have permission to be the type of parent you want to be for your child.
You don’t need hours of spare time a week (that none of us have lying around) to attend live webinars or trainings – you can go at your own pace, when you have time to dedicate your attention to bettering yourself and your parenting.
You don’t need to spend hours of time researching what is best for your child – you know what is best for your child and the Dr. Vanessa Membership will help empower you to know that YOU are the best expert on your child.

get to know me
Hi, I'm Dr. Vanessa Lapointe
I’m a mom, counsellor, parenting educator, best-selling author, international speaker, and a regularly invited media guest. I have been supporting families and children for almost 20 years through my developmental clinic and work within community mental health and the school system, and I look forward to traveling on this journey with you.
My goal is to change the conversation about how we make the world go ‘round for all of the kids we are growing up. I want kids to grow up in the best possible way. I want parents, teachers, caregivers, and other big people to know they are a child’s answer. I want the mysteries of brain development and the complexity of a child’s needs to feel totally conquerable. I want your kids to know that you’ve got this!
And I want you to know that it’s okay if it feels like it is hard. That’s just part of this. And we are here to figure it out. Together.
Why should you trust me?
My passion is in walking alongside parents, teachers, care providers, and other big people to really see the world through the child’s eyes. I know that if we can do this, we are beautifully positioned to grow up our children in the best possible way – and I have almost 20 years of experience working towards this.
I teach you the same strategies in this membership that I use for my own growing boys.
I share the same messages that I provide parents I work with at my developmental clinic, The North Star Developmental Clinic.
I pull from experience I gained working within my local school system and community mental health system.
I build on the foundations that are discussed in my best-selling books and pass that knowledge onto you as a member.
The Dr. Vanessa Membership is the right place for you if...
- You’re invested in your child’s life and want to put the work in to better understand their struggles
- You are looking for ways to better connect with your child
- You wish that you could approach your child’s behavior with patience and compassion, rather than yelling and frustration
- You want your household to be more harmonious and less chaotic
- You see parenting as a challenge to be won, something you are always working on and trying to improve

"Dr Lapointe has a unique ability to simultaneously teach parents new tools while helping us build confidence int he skills we already posses. Her focus on connection makes wonderful, intuitive sense and is an excellent approach to parenting any age of child."
– Lindsay F.
We’ve all been there - our child's behavior is setting our teeth on edge and we can feel our patience bubbling over.
We react.
We yell.
Our child matches our fire with their fire, and suddenly, we’re caught in a battle that neither stands to win.
When we parent from a place of connection, we are no longer concerned with “winning” a conflict with our child and are instead seeking to foster a strong relationship with our child. Our homes become calmer, more peaceful places, and our interactions with our children become opportunities to connect.
Our children are growing, and the sooner we can understand their struggles and connect with them on a deeper level, the more we can help them grow into the person they will be.
