Who is Dr. Renee Fiema & Mindful Parenting Insight

As an educational leader, lifelong learner, and parent who has sailed similar seas, I’m inspired to share insights from early childhood and elementary education, weaving them with real-world experiences for you to reflect on during your voyage. 

My compass? Thirty-four years of educational leadership, a deep-rooted inspiration from principles of the Montessori philosophy, personal reflections as a parent of two spirited (now young adult) children, and a passion for continuous personal and professional growth.

I believe all parents share a common wish: for their children to be happy and reach their full potential. So, adjust your sails, embrace the journey, and follow along. Together, we’ll chart a course toward mindful, intentional parenting. 

Mindful Parenting: Being Present in a Busy World

Parenting is a journey,  and in today’s vast sea of information—where media posts flood our feeds, podcasts of every kind are just a click away, and technology and culture evolve faster than ever—it’s easy to feel adrift. My mission is to be a guiding light, helping parents navigate these waters with confidence and clarity.

I surveyed 50 students and asked them what activities they enjoy that don’t involve a screen. I then picked 7 and expanded on them to create a 7-day screen-free activity guide. Get the free download now and start your screen-free week!
