The PAUSE Method™

For when you’ve tried every parenting trick in the book (and nothing’s working)

GET INSTANT ACCESS

A proven roadmap for parents of children who challenge the rulebook

Created by a specialist coach, educator & mum who’s been there

It’s that the parenting playbook you’ve been handed wasn’t designed for this. And that’s exactly what The PAUSE Method™ is built for.

A step-by-step plan to help you:

You’re not failing. You’re not alone. Your child isn’t “bad.”

✅ Respond with confidence, not guesswork
✅ Decode their big emotions
✅ Break the rage-guilt cycle
✅ Feel less defeated, more in control
✅ Discover tools that actually work

What is The PAUSE Method™?

My simple 5-step framework helps you understand what’s really behind your child’s BIG emotions. It’s about pressing pause before reacting and learning to respond with confidence, compassion, and understanding. 

It’s a steady guide to lean on, even on the hardest days.

  • What’s happening in your child’s body when emotions take over.
    Create a personalised “in-the-moment” plan that will de-escalate the very next meltdown you face — calmly, quickly, and confidently.

  • Calming yourself first so you can guide them back to safety.
    Discover a grounding technique with instant impact, so you stay steady even when your child is spiralling.

  • Noticing and challenging the stories that fuel frustration or guilt.
    Use my brain-hack strategy to shift unhelpful thoughts and rewire your responses — creating calmer reactions without the guilt spiral.

  • Seeing behaviour as a sign of overload, not defiance.
    Build a simple plan to instantly reduce daily overwhelm — and start seeing your child cope better with demands straight away.

  • Setting calm, consistent limits that build trust and connection.
    Steal my boundary-setting script so you can approach tricky conversations with confidence — firm, clear, and without starting a war.

Wondering if it’s right for you?

  • The PAUSE Method™ is a simple 5-step framework that helps you understand what’s really behind your child’s BIG emotions — and how to respond calmly instead of reacting.

    P – Physiology – What’s happening in your child’s body when emotions take over.
    A – Awareness – Calming yourself first so you can guide them back to safety.
    U – Unhelpful Thoughts – Noticing and challenging the stories that fuel frustration or guilt.
    S – Stress & Demands – Seeing behaviour as a sign of overload, not defiance.
    E – Establish Boundaries – Setting calm, consistent limits that build trust and connection.

    It’s about pressing pause before reacting — and learning to respond with confidence, compassion, and understanding.

    • Calm In The Chaos: Practical, gentle tools that actually work in the heat of the moment, with an easy-to-remember plan when nothing else seems to work.

    • Connection That Lasts: A clear path to move beyond survival mode and into rhythms that feel safe and sustainable, so you can reconnect with your child and with yourself.

    • Less Guilt, More Confidence: A non-judgemental approach that’s rooted in real-life experience and genuine compassion, not shame, blame, or trying to “fix” your child.

  • Absolutely!  I have literally created The PAUSE Method™ with you in mind! I was in your shoes, I couldn't attend the local community group sessions at 11am on a Tuesday (I was at work), I couldn’t jump on a live call at 7pm on a Wednesday night (the evening doom hours!). I needed something I could access on MY SCHEDULE. 

    The PAUSE Method™ is exactly that.  You can watch the videos or simply listen to them podcast style. You can come back to them whenever you want/need. They’re short and bitesized, you won’t feel overwhelmed by them no matter how busy you are at work or at home. This is the support I needed back when I was ‘in the thick of it’. 

  • In step 1, P for Physiology, you will learn what is happening to your child when they are in meltdown. This knowledge, combined with the step-by-step action plan and script inside, will change the way you approach the VERY next meltdown (that's just a 10 minute session!). 

    The change in your response will positively impact on your child immediately. 

    The PAUSE Method™ will continue to guide you through with compassion so that meltdowns will feel less frequent, less ferocious and less overwhelming, one 10-15 minute step at a time. 

  • This is why I created The PAUSE Method™. It’s not a full directory, it’s not trying to teach you EVERYTHING you need to know about your child. Because I’ve seen too many parents just like me, who are struggling to just make it through each day - theory doesn’t help us, it overwhelms us. 

    We need simple, practical steps to get a handle on the meltdowns that are completely consuming us. Until we can find a way to press PAUSE on the meltdown cycle, all the theory in the world isn’t going to help us.   

  • Lots of people have been booking in for 1:1 support from me once they have worked through The PAUSE Method™ to really help them get clear on what’s going on in other areas of their child’s life, so I thought I’d sweeten the deal for you. On top of your huge 30% saving, you will now also get a discount on 1:1 Coaching worth £25.

    PS: If now’s not the time for the full course, that’s totally okay.

What parents have said about my support

  • "I cannot speak highly enough of Sensory Mother. Her understanding of sensitive topics is truly remarkable. She navigates complex and emotional situations with such grace and care, making you feel heard, validated, and supported. It’s rare to find someone who can balance professional expertise with such warmth and humanity."

    TalesandTeaLeaves

  • "I can’t recommend the sensory mother enough. She’s amazing and her courses have taught me so much and iv done them all so I highly recommend enrolling onto the courses you won’t regret it! You will learn so much. Thank you for teaching me so much! Honestly a life saver!"

    Kaylee

  • "I loved doing the '5 Days to Change' programme with Laura! I knew it would be brilliant as I'd already attended one of her courses at my son's school, and the whole experience was so validating. Just hearing from someone who understands goes such a long way, but the practical tools helped so much too. Laura is super down to earth and honest, she doesn't preach because she's been in our shoes, and I just loved that. I'd recommend it to anyone"

    Jessica

  • "I did the 5 Days to Change course and I really loved how easy it was to work through. I liked how it was just a little bit each day, but that I could go back and look at all the previous days whenever I wanted. I've revisited it loads of times to remind myself. It really has made a difference - especially Day Two! That's been so helpful in changing the way I approach my daughter's meltdowns. Thank you A*!!"

    Elizabeth

  • "I had so many “penny drop” moments throughout the free masterclass. Everything was so well explained and followed up with excellent ideas on how to move forward. So thankful I found her page."

    Brenda

  • "Laura is extremely knowledgeable and is a brilliant teacher. Her approach is simple& straightforward yet extremely effective. She has lived experience with her own son which is so important and makes you feel understood."

    Jess

  • "The masterclass was really helpful, there is so much information out there and I've often found myself lost looking for ways I can best support my son. I found that Laura delivered an informative session in an empathic and helpful way - making me feel less alone. It was also great to have some new strategies and approaches to take away and try. Thank you."

    LK

  • "So easy to follow and timed very well. I love that every day we had a different video but they were never more than 15min long (which is ideal when you are an overstretched SEND parent!) and that you could refer back to the previous day if you needed to. It has given us some new ideas on how to support our daughter and for that I will always be grateful!"

Created for overwhelmed parents by a mum who’s lived it

Hi, I’m Laura—educator, parent coach, and mum to twins.

I’ve lived through the screaming mornings, the shutdowns, the guilt, the tears.

I’ve also spent 19+ years working in education, specialising in SEN and coaching 100s of parents and young people through the
hardest moments of their lives.

I created this programme to give you what I desperately needed at the height of our struggles: a clear, compassionate roadmap out of the meltdown cycle—and a chance to reconnect with my child (and myself) along the way.
