I’m Hanna Nazarenko – certified coach (Yale educated, 4x certified) and a Year-One Coach for new parents. I help moms and dads protect their relationship, mental health, and identity in the first year after baby.
Here you’ll find real talk about marriage after baby, postpartum fights over “who’s more tired”, the mental load, mom rage, dad shutdown, and how to feel like a team, a family again.
I share scripts for hard talks with your partner and grandparents, plus gentle tools for anxious, overwhelmed, exhausted parents.
Btw, I’m a mom of three boys. My eldest lives with serious heart issues and a pacemaker, my toddlers keep us in the no-sleep chaos - so everything here is real, not theory!
If you’re googling “postpartum marriage help”, “relationship after baby”, or “why are we always fighting now?”, this channel is for you.

Effective communication with your child is essential for fostering a positive and supportive environment. This guide provides valuable tips on how to talk to your child, helping you understand their emotions and needs better.
Narrate and Label Emotions:
Wrong: "Stop crying!"
Right: "I see you're feeling sad. Can you tell me what's wrong?"
Encouraging your child to express their feelings helps develop their emotional intelligence and fosters better communication. By acknowledging their emotions and asking them to share, you build a trusting relationship.
Provide Choices:
Wrong: "Put on your coat now!"
Right: "Do you want to wear your blue coat or your red one?"
Giving your child choices empowers them and reduces power struggles. It allows them to feel in control while still following necessary guidelines. This technique promotes cooperation and decision-making skills.
Avoid Negative Commands:
Wrong: "Don't run in the house!"
Right: "Let's walk inside the house."
Using positive instructions instead of negative commands helps your child understand what is expected of them. Clear and positive directions are more effective in guiding their behavior.
Ask Open-Ended Questions:
Wrong: "Did you have a good day?"
Right: "What was the best part of your day?"
Open-ended questions encourage detailed and meaningful conversations with your child. This approach helps them articulate their thoughts and experiences, strengthening your bond and improving communication skills.
Why Effective Communication Matters:
Effective communication is the foundation of a strong parent-child relationship. By using these strategies, you can create a supportive and understanding environment where your child feels heard and valued. This not only helps in their emotional and social development but also builds a foundation of trust and mutual respect.
Key Benefits:
Improved Emotional Intelligence: Helps children identify and express their emotions.
Enhanced Cooperation: Reduces power struggles and promotes decision-making.
Better Behavior Guidance: Positive instructions lead to better understanding and behavior.
Stronger Bond: Open-ended questions foster deeper conversations and connections.
Conclusion:
Implementing these communication strategies can transform your relationship with your child. Start incorporating these tips into your daily interactions and see the positive changes in their behavior and emotional well-being. Remember, effective communication is the key to raising happy and confident children.

Hey #HannaFam, your girl Hanna Nazarenko is here, ready for real talk.
I'm not your average mom – think of me as a warrior in life, a guru in coaching, a mentor for the soul, and your daily dose of inspiration and hope. My voyage into motherhood? It's been a wild, unique ride. My firstborn, Yehor, arrived in this world as a true fighter, facing massive challenges with heart diseases like Ebstein's anomaly type D and moderate pulmonary valve stenosis. Doctors gave him just 8 years – imagine that! Confronting this reality? Absolutely the toughest phase of my life.
But hey, I chose to rise above. Made it my mission to use every bit of my strength to keep my son thriving. Our journey's been like a rollercoaster – heart-stopping fear, gnawing uncertainty, yet each day is powered by an ocean of love and relentless hope. We've been through it all – countless check-ups, surgeries – but waking up each day, knowing we've won another 24 hours, that's our triumph.
As a mentor with over 3000 hours under my belt, I've been guiding amazing souls to find their paths, crush obstacles, and live their ultimate dreams. My academic journey's taken me around the globe, with life-changing experiences at places like Yale University.
So, come on, join my journey. With millions of you amazing people behind me, we're more than just a community; we're an unstoppable force. Let's dive into a world of daily growth, learning, and endless inspiration.
My drive? It's all about lifting others up. With my real-life stories, expert advice, and firsthand experiences, I'm here to empower and support anyone facing life's challenges. I believe with all my heart in the power of community, support, and mutual aid.
Let's do this together, fam. With you by my side, we can face and conquer anything. We're stronger together, an unstoppable force. Join me in this daily journey of growth, learning, and inspiring each other.
With all my love,
Hanna Nazarenko
