ABOUT US

We help separated parents co-parent effectively, minimising stress and maximising freedom, so you can co-parent with relaxed confidence, focused on enjoying your children and building your new life.

Let me introduce myself...

I’m Tiffany Rochester, Founding CEO of Co-Parenting Companion and your Co-Parenting Coach.

I have always worked at the difficult end of complex family dynamics, focusing on long-term thriving after hardship. In my early career, I resourced families with children in the juvenile justice system. These families were some of my best early teachers, as I saw how hard they worked to provide nurturing environments for their children. Yet, they were battling against service providers who judged them unfairly. They had never been offered the chance to learn efficient skills for conflict resolution, how to set and hold healthy boundaries, or how to live in alignment with their own values around love, compassion and kindness when life was so challenging.

Throughout my career, I have focussed on assisting parents in walking some of the toughest parenting journeys, chief among them being separated parents. It’s horrifying how many families have lost years of their lives and thousands of dollars trying to resolve conflict through the strong arm of the law. The legal process serves a function, but it should never have been the primary pathway for families in transition. Instead, co-parents need resourcing in building their new co-parenting toolkit, including communication tools and strategies to help them co-parent collaboratively with calm confidence. Instead, they’ve been left to fight over black-and-white words in a legal document with the threat of more battles forever hanging over their heads.

Too many times, I had parents say to me,

“I wish I’d met you right at the start.

I could have saved so much time and money.

We wouldn’t be here now.”

Our Mission

That’s why I founded Co-Parenting Companion: to support and resource separated parents right from the outset to establish healthy boundaries, clear communication, and take out all the guesswork of how to make separated co-parenting an easy success!

Ending an unhealthy relationship can be a Good News story, both for parents and children.

Life is short. Relationships end for great reasons. I am passionate about resourcing co-parents to open up to the next chapter of building one family across two homes, where children are secure in their warm connection to both parents and their extended families.

Let me tell you about my “Why”

I enjoy being mum to my two teenage sons. There is no more tremendous privilege than this for me. They are my definite “why” behind all of the work that I do.

My boys have certainty about their place in our family, their relationship with each parent, and their connection to our extended family. With this sense of assuredness, I see the natural advantage they have as they go about their day-to-day teenage tasks of going to school, catching up with friends, and doing extra-curricular activities. There is a burden they don’t have to carry, which frees them to grow up slowly, work out their identities in developmentally appropriate ways, eat good food and sleep well each night.

It’s the same safety my own parents were able to provide for me.

I see what my children have, and I want that for all children. I know how fortunate I am, and I want that for all parents.

The very same research and skills I use in my Coaching work are the same ones I apply in my home, and I want to make that accessible to all parents. It’s too good, too precious not to share.

What our Clients Say

The Reset was a gentle guide for taking responsibility in my co-parenting relationship.

It has helped me achieve more positve interactions with my co-parent, and skills for self-regulation in interactions with my children.

Greg M.

I am not sure what I expected from joining the program, but it has been bigger than I ever thought.

My biggest personal achievement for the year.

Reset Graduate

Word of mouth led me to your social media, and then my co-parent's lawyer recommended your services. My key takeaway is that co-parenting isn't an impossible task and doesn't need to end up in court.

I would recommend this course to improve your sense of sanity!!

Karyn

I'm better at holding space for my child, and notice how much she’s settled. It has been a significant shift in her abiltiy to regulate much quicker. I’ve let go of what I can't control and know I'm making a safe nest for my child. I have confidence to hold to my values and maintain clarity around dealing with tricky moments.

Reset Graduate

The insight and practical tools helped me become a better parent & communicator with my co-parent, the children and other people in my life. I would recommend this course for any parent who has separated and find themselves in a co-parenting situation, it is extremely beneficial for all involved.

Eric

I needed to do this. It was a priority.

And if people are saying they can't afford the money, they can't afford the time, I want to say to them:

You'll get more money and more time if you do this Reset now.

Reset Graduate

Tiffany is warm, supportive, knowledgeable and practical. She believes in a family dynamic where the wellbeing of the children is prioritised, such that they always feel supported and loved and never ‘in between’ the grown ups. She has a lot of resources and practical tips on how to help you work towards this goal, even when it seems difficult and unachievable.

Janet R.

Before I started the Reset, my co-parent wouldn't agree with anything. We were back in court, spending a lot of money. When I joined, everyone was really nice, and it was like they were telling my story. It was nice to hear I wasn’t the only one experiencing this. There were really helpful strategies for quieting my mind, so that I could function properly & focus. I got ideas about how to help my co-parent's behaviour to change by changing what I'm doing. There were ideas I'd never thought to try. The course gives you a solid foundation and different ways to get through.

Reset Graduate

This approach should be the norm and not the exception. This is a great, effective way to figure out this co-parenting journey. And it is complete with the guidance of a genuinely interested and committed third party.

Thank you Tiff, this new path for my journey is incredible.

Karyn

I've stopped trying to fix things to make everyone happy. I've put boundaries in place and realised it's not my job to make other people happy to the exclusion of my own needs. I feel proud of myself. I'm no longer constantly bombarded with someon elses' opinions and constantly trying to make it right for them.

Reset Graduate

I feel less like I'm the only one. I feel like because we've chosen this journey of collaboration rather than court, that's the opposite of a lot of people.

It's awesome to have met other people walking that similar path. It took me a long, long time to find something like this.

Katie B.

Co-Parenting Companion helps me confidently approach any co-parenting issue with the children's best interests foremost and has provided me comfort when things haven't gone so well. The balance of information, explanation and kindness provided in my weekly update is best described as the “fuel” I need for the sometimes long and stressful times that we can experience from time to time.

Melissa

With your support we got to a parenting agreement quickly, cheaply and relatively painlessly. I think your service is exactly what we needed and probably what many "new" co-parents need but don't necessarily find. My worst fear in embarking on this journey was that I would find myself separated from the children for some extended period while we worked through the logistics. With your support that did not happen and I feel more connected to the children at the moment than ever before.

Dave

Tiffany hits the mark with her information and advice that seems personally written for me and my situation. This is my reason for recommending Tiffany to other parents, as there is something here for everyone amongst the advice, tips and explanations provided by Tiffany every week.

Melissa

The weekly Co-Parenting Companion resources have been a timely source of support and guidance. I find it particularly helpful when they often pre-empt issues or events and provide practical examples of how to deal with them. Even when I’m on top of these issues, it’s reassuring that I haven’t overlooked anything.

Gregor

I knew that going to court was not the answer for our family, yet it appeared to be what you were ‘supposed’ to do. I have successfully avoided that option thus far – but it has been a lonely journey. For years I have felt I was walking this path alone; a path that no one else was taking, and no one else quite understood. Until I came across Tiffany and Coparenting Companion. Feels like I have finally found the support network I have been looking for all this time!

Janet R.

I was surprised at how much I got out of being able to communicate with Tiffany directly, as even brief interactions brought the content to life and provided moments of clarity and self-awareness.

Greg M.

Co-Parenting Companion advice is helpful to navigate the road that I never imagined taking. The resources can be humorous at times, as well as informative, always interesting, and very useful for our situation. The Co-Parenting Companion has helped me to be more aware of ways to improve my co-parenting.

Elizabeth

Tiffany possesses an incredible wealth of knowledge about what truly works when it comes to co-parenting. I no longer feel overwhelmed or alone in my co-parenting journey as I have access to the plethora of resources.

Bianca D.

Tiffany was terrific. Her ability to diffuse the emotions in a very difficult moment in life and focus the discussion on the best outcome for the children is amazing. We achieved agreement on a parenting agreement within two months of formal separation which is an amazing outcome. I cannot recommend Tiffany highly enough!!
