Mentor Maestro brings you these parenting courses, seminars, workshops and private family coaching, and also offers the Parent Coach business opportunity and training.

Mentor Maestro is a family-owned company, based in Melbourne, Australia and Janet Powell is Principal of the company. Our programmes are designed to support each family within their belief system. We focus on helping family members to function, connect and achieve in their cultural framework.

As a parent to three children herself, Janet is passionate about sharing the skills and philosophy for a wonderful parenting adventure. She will offer encouragement for the growth of calm, loving families, and recognition of the value these families bring to our world.

Janet has spent many years interacting with parents and children, through play-groups, kindergarten and school volunteer groups and parent associations, as a Cub Scout leader, and as a presenter of a Science Show for children. Janet has worked in child-care centres and most recently, kindergarten.

With nearly thirty years parenting experience , Janet knows the joys and many of the difficulties of raising children. She will encourage other parents to find the will and the way to make decisions wisely and achieve wonderful outcomes in their families. She strongly believes in the power and value of great parenting, and is keen to help mothers and fathers feel good about being parents.

With qualifications in Applied Science and Children’s Services, Janet’s mission now is to raise the profile of motherhood and fatherhood, and to empower parents to allow their children free and long childhood, creating happier, less stressed families.

Janet attended the Learning About Parenting Conference at Macquarie University in Sydney. This was a very informative series of presentations for professionals working with families of all kinds. Plenty of food for thought!
