You also know that every child is unique, even from their siblings. So when one approach works great for one child, but falls flat with another, it’s okay if you don’t know what to do.  And when the tantrums won’t stop, nobody is getting enough sleep, or school, screen time, and social media are becoming issues, sometimes a new approach altogether is what’s needed. Our coaches are trained to help. They listen without judgment and with your input, they come up with personalized recommendations that work. (Our 99% satisfaction rate is real!)  [Coaches take their education and experience](https://www.brightlife.kids/about-us/our-coaches/) and use it to make you and your child feel safe, heard, and comfortable. We’re here for everyone and free for everyone. Whether you’ve got an infant or a preteen, you’ve made it to the right place. Let’s get started. ![Mom and daugther at computer](https://images.ctfassets.net/c27ds9epot4n/2mWc4u8g92r3TBWErcozgX/c268abfd27e8670608c401c28b98c1fc/AdobeStock_8653188.jpeg?w=2560&fm=webp&q=75) - [I’m ready to sign up](https://app.hellobrightline.com/guest/new) ## Get started by age and stage ### Infants/toddlers **AGES 0-4** ![Toddler and two parents ipad](https://images.ctfassets.net/c27ds9epot4n/IOjm2W1OgsyZkpbUAvntj/ed6345cae873fa665a94f777987286d4/AdobeStock_428107868.jpeg?w=2560&fm=webp&q=75) ### Kids **AGES 5-8** ![Kids BLK](https://images.ctfassets.net/c27ds9epot4n/70QSwArszmE81h6Ms4Guby/0e39afa098b8df3d4baf9c28b691c3a6/AdobeStock_280586309.jpeg?w=2560&fm=webp&q=75) ### Tweens **Ages 9-12** ![Tweens BLK](https://images.ctfassets.net/c27ds9epot4n/5zFLU7lxB8AOc2oOAG22jF/0828bdf784e7fb86e4aa8967990a9d35/pexels-julia-m-cameron-4145349_1.png?w=816&fm=webp&q=75) ## Get started by topic of interest ### Big emotions & behavior - Anxiety - Sadness - Stress and more ### Digital life & safety - Cyberbullying - Internet safety - Screen time and more ### Family & parenting - Communication - Dynamics - Grief and more ### Identity & development - Gender identity - Racial identity - Sex & dating and more ### Neurodiversity & other differences - ADHD, - Focus, - Autism and more ### School & social skills - Emotional skills - Organizational skills - Absenteeism and more ### Sleeping & eating - Bedtime - Meals - Nutrition and more ## Why coaching works so well for so many families - [Sign up for free](https://app.hellobrightline.com/guest/new) ### You help set the goals Our coaches work directly with caregivers.
