About us
An English-speaking group for ADHD moms & dads in Haarlem and beyond.
I created this group because I wish I'd had something like it when I was looking for support
myself. A place to meet other parents who understand ADHD life without having to explain
everything first.
We'll meet over coffee and talk about all things ADHD.
Yours, your child's, or both.
The everyday questions.
The things that keep coming back.
The things we're trying to understand.
Why does my child react like this?
Why does something that seems so simple become such a battle?
What is ADHD actually doing underneath the behaviour?
How is all of this affecting siblings, our partners, our relationships and our family?
And what about us? The exhaustion, the worry, the guilt, and how easy it can be to lose yourself while trying to support everyone else.
Sometimes we'll simply meet and talk.
Sometimes we'll take one ADHD question or topic and explore it together.
And I'd love to occasionally invite guests who can help us understand something better
or bring a different perspective.
I'm Vanessa. I'm an ADHD mom, I have ADHD myself, and I'm also an ADHD Life & Parent Coach. I'll bring what I know when it's useful.
The idea is simple : Connection, conversation and community.
A place where we can share what's working, what's really not working, ask questions, learn from each other, have a laugh when we need one, and meet people who are at the same or a different stage of ADHD life.
Come for just a coffee. Bring a question if you have one. Share if you feel comfortable
or just come and listen.
And hopefully, together, we can build the kind of village many of us have been looking for.
