How to Set Up Your Parent Coaching Business
The rise of solopreneurs in recent years signals an optimistic future for parent coaches and childcare providers. According to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, employment in personal care and service occupations is projected to grow 17% from 2021 to 2031, a rate much faster than average. This reflects a growing need for specialists like parenting coaches, behavioral consultants, speech therapists, sleep coaches, lactation consultants, among other specialities.
A big mistake new coaches make is using fragmented solutions and softwares for their business. MissPoppins is one example of a platform built specifically for parenting professionals. It’s designed to support both new and experienced coaches with tools that help you stay organized, professional, and client-focused.
The benefits of MissPoppins:

Choosing the right software is foundational, but building your brand is just as important. In a field where trust and emotional connection matter deeply, a strong brand can help you stand out. If you're using a platform like MissPoppins, brand affiliation establishes credibility. Still, it's essential to maintain a consistent and professional presence across your digital spaces.
Make sure your branding reflects your values. This includes having a clean and user-friendly website, a consistent color palette, and a voice that feels both knowledgeable and approachable.
Your social media presence is often the first touchpoint for new clients. Before you start creating content, take a moment to consider how you want to come across. Good lighting, a tidy background, and a warm tone of voice all help build credibility. What resonates most is genuine care. MissPoppins is dedicated to helping care providers like you grow meaningful and sustainable businesses.
