The ART of Living Life
​​​
​
Parenting has been one of the biggest JOYS of my
life. I have three children and each of one of them
is such a unique and wonderful spirit.
Through the
years I've written three books on the subject, held parenting classes and have hosted numerous radio
shows on the subject.
​
I've had the fun of creating numerous
"child-friendly" homes, designing
unique places for each unique child.
​
And Now I'm delighted to be bringing
my years of parenting experience all together
and offering:
​​​
​​​
THE PARENTING ACADEMY
​
I believe that "HOME" can be that very cozy,
comforting and calming place
where each family member is free to be just who they
are and loved in the process.
With practices and tools, parents have the
ability to be conscious parents and create a happy,
healthy and harmonious home life.
​​
Today in 2025, I believe we are in the process
of re-thinking life is so many ways, including
family living.
​​
What values do YOU want to bring into your home
and into your parenting in 2025?
​
These times are calling us to align with
our deepest values and live aligned in every way.
​
And in
this process you may be called to rethink
any or all of the following:
​​
​​​
How well do I listen to my inner voice?
​
How can I start the day off to insure
a good start for my family?
​​
​​​
How can I really listen to my children?
​
​​
How can I nurture my children's gifts?
​
​Is it important to be in nature and natural settings
& away from phones/devices on a regular
basis?
​​
Is there a way to regulate my nervous system
myself so I feel centered the
majority of time?
​​
Do I understand the ageless universal laws
behind life and know how to bring
them to my children?
​
How can I be with strong emotions and process
all that arises and help my children to do the same?
What is the best way to keep my family healthy?

THE ART OF LISTENING TO CHILDREN
​​​
Listening to a child in your life is one of the most
important things
you can do as a caring adult in the life
of a child!
LISTENING, truly listening to a child, send them
a powerful message! A message that says:
​​
YOU CARE!
​​​
YOU ARE HERE FOR THEM!
​​
THEY MATTER!
​​
THEIR WORDS MATTER!
​​
THEIR FEELINGS MATTER!

WHAT PEOPLE SAY ABOUT SHARON:​
​​​
Parenting Class:
​
Sharon has a wonderful way of mixing her presentation to include discussion, sharing, individual exercises and lecture which keeps the class upbeat, personal, educational and interesting.
As a parent with experience as a parent educator it has been valuable
to re-visit known concepts, to learn new perspectives, and to take
the time to re-focus on my own parenting.
Sharon's gentle voice and accepting manner keep all the members
of the class comfortable sharing personal issues and eager to ask questions.

Sharon Wikoff
is a beautiful kind soul and an effective, nurturing, creatively aware teacher for my daughter Angelina!! I highly recommend her piano teaching and art classes because my daughter has been growing and expanding in her heart, mind and skills from both.
Sharon is patient, kind, loving and creates a very nurturing environment that is palpable whether in person or during online lessons. My daughter looks forward to all her moments with Sharon.
Sharon is a stellar human being and we are happy she's a part of our lives!
