Transformative Learning for Parents and Schools

Our Mission

The Mission of Causeways is to create a world where all children flourish.

​

We deliver high-impact, curated, expert-led coaching and consulting that elevates parenting teams and school leadership teams, empowering leaders to realize their visions for thriving families, schools, and communities. 

For Parents

Executive Coaching for the Work of Parenting

Even the most seasoned parents often feel powerless in the face of their child's struggles. The all-consuming worry, the search for the right words or resources, the fear of falling short...it's an emotional burden that amplifies the already daunting demands of adult life. Without the practical tools parents need to offer meaningful guidance, children lack access transformational support.

Causeways offers coaching and facilitation that cater to your unique challenges as a parent. Well-supported parents raise flourishing children.

For Schools

Causeways offers curated, expert-led solutions that improve the performance of leadership teams.​​ Causeways also provides the means to bring parents in the community together to create meaningful connections, without overburdening school leaders.

Consultation and Coaching for School Leaders

School Leaders are tasked with rebuilding a sense of community that was lost during Covid, increasing engagement to improve retention and fundraising, and leading a diverse community through unprecedented times. â€‹

“Working with Sarah has helped me see that my ambitions don’t have to take a back seat. She's helped me find ways to set boundaries, advocate for myself, and pursue my aspirations without sacrificing my well-being. Since we’ve been working together, I’ve been empowered to say out loud what I need and want, both in the office and at home.”

Our Values

We believe that children flourish when adults feel supported. 

Stay Curious

Curiosity helps us embrace the unavoidable unknowns. It’s what drives us to dive into the latest research, listen closely to the real-life experiences of parents and school leaders, and constantly look for new ways to help. We don’t rely on formulas or “quick-fix” solutions. We use an investigative approach that leaves space for thoughtful, tailored action plans.

Knowledge is Power

Transformation happens when we cut through the noise and deliver clear, practical guidance grounded in real research—not the latest trend. Whether it’s understanding the foundations of child development or implementing proven leadership strategies, we help our clients expand their knowledge base so they can feel better equipped to support children and school communities.

Embrace Ambiguity

Most things don’t happen exactly the way we expect them to, especially in parenting and school leadership. And that’s okay! The more we get comfortable with ambiguity, the easier it is to feel grounded, even when so many things are outside of our control.

Trust Your Intuition

We believe in the power of trusting your gut. While research and evidence are essential, intuition is sometimes the best resource in deciding what is right for a family or school community. We’re here to build the bridge between knowledge and intuition so that parents and school leaders can make choices that align with their minds and their hearts. 

Center Your Strengths

Our clients already have the ability to excel; they just need to identify their strengths and use them to their advantage (that’s where we come in). By centering these strengths, parents and school leaders can lead in ways that align with their personal values and build on the qualities that make them uniquely equipped to support children and communities.

Create Systems and Structures

We can’t make parenting or school leadership more predictable, but we can make them less chaotic. Simple, effective structures help parents and school leaders feel more in control while providing children and communities with the stability they need to thrive. It’s not about rigid rules or inflexible schedules; it’s about lightening the load and making everyday life smoother so that everyone can focus on the things that actually matter.
