Suruurah Olayinka Ogunfemi

NLP Kids Practitioner & Family Life Coach

Suruurah is one of those blessed women who got married and the babies wouldn’t stop coming almost every other 9 months! The result was that in her first eight years of marriage, she had all five kids… almost back to back! To maintain her sanity, she knew she needed real time tools and strategies that work! This explains her very first journey into the world of parenting education. She enrolled for the Positive Parenting Course and qualified as a Family Life Coach. To further hone her skills, She trained as a Life Coach with the Prestigious Robbins-Mandanes Training in the US. She is also a graduate of Neuro Linguistic Progamming (NLP) from Innocent Minds International. Over the past decade, she has offered as much as 1000 families new tools to parent differently. In July 2016, she published her first parenting book: “How to Raise Better-Behaved Children.” The reviews have been in one word- amazing, alhamduliLlaah! Suruurah starts with the end in mind for her clients and work backwards to get them to where peace, communication and co-operation are the outcome. This works!
