Kelly
Baptiste

Certified Parenting Coach

With over 30 years in education, I’ve had the profound honor of walking alongside families from diverse backgrounds, learning with them, supporting them, and gaining deep insight into the emotional and academic impact of trauma and generational patterns on children. These experiences shaped my understanding of the real challenges families face today, especially in a society that moves fast, pressures parents, and often leaves little space for grace.

Becoming a certified parent coach wasn’t just a career shift—it was a life-changing journey.

“Teaching has shaped me - but Coaching defines me. I am both, and that balance is my superpower"

Today, I blend my experience in education with my coaching expertise to support parents who want more than just survival in parenting—they want connection, understanding, and tools grounded in brain science, emotional intelligence, and cultural awareness. I help families move from cycles of frustration to pathways of healing, resilience, and joy.

Parenting isn’t about perfection—it’s about presence. And I’m here to walk with parents, every step of the way.

What Our Clients Are Saying

Tiffany A. Murphy Training Manager | Be Strong Families
I have had the pleasure of working alongside Kelly Baptiste in various capacities, most notably through our shared work with Be Strong Families’ Parent Cafés. From the very beginning, it was clear that she possessed a deep commitment to supporting and uplifting parents. Her warmth, authenticity, and ability to hold space for others make her a natural coach and a powerful presence in any room. As a Parent Café host, she brings a rare balance of empathy and wisdom. Her presence invites trust, and her words always seem to meet people exactly where they are. I’ve witnessed firsthand how parents feel seen, heard, and valued in her care—and how her leadership gently encourages growth and reflection. She’s not only mastered the principles behind the Parent Café model; she lives them out loud—with grace, compassion, and deep intention. Watching her grow in her learning and dedication to supporting parents has been both inspiring and affirming. She embodies the spirit of partnership, always listening deeply, asking thoughtful questions, and creating environments where real transformation can happen. She truly sees the strength in every parent—and helps them see it in themselves. It’s an honor to know her, to work with her, and to witness the beautiful impact she continues to make in the lives of families.
Monisha BlakePrincipal | William Lee & Ephraim Williams College Prep
Working with Kelly has been an invaluable experience for our school community. Her expertise in engaging and supporting parent groups has not only strengthened family involvement but also fostered a deeper sense of connection and partnership. Her coaching has provided families with the tools and strategies needed to effectively advocate for their children’s success. Personally, her guidance has been a tremendous asset, offering clear, actionable insights that have enhanced our approach
Ms. Veletta JohnsonParent Liaison | ARCP
As the Fortune School 24-25 school semester is ending, I would like to acknowledge the hard work and dedication of Mrs. Kelly Baptiste. This will conclude my third year working and collaborating with her. I am so grateful for Mrs. Baptiste’s collaboration, cheerful outlook, and impact on our team successes. From the beginning of the Parent Group vision for Fortune schools, to getting us certified with “Be Strong Families” a nationwide program, her encouragement and support helped develop a strong and wonderful business relationship. I am thankful for the impact she has had on my growth and independence, including creating a positive and welcoming environment with our parent engagement. Mrs. Baptiste has always been in my corner. Last July of 2024, I was extremely ill, and Mrs. Baptiste held down our commission by personally hosting my Parent Groups for months. With all her own deliverables, she developed a rapport with our ARCP parents and successfully kept the consistency we needed until I was able to return. This was huge, as our parents, and my ARCP team were grateful for her dedication, and so am I!
Ms. Hutton Parent Liaison | HMCP
Working with Ms. Baptiste has been an incredibly impactful experience. Since I connected with her, I have been inspired by her deep passion for children and her unwavering dedication to creating positive change. Ms. Baptiste works with parent groups, and her coaching efforts have been nothing short of transformative for the families she supports, and me personally. She brings a combination of empathy, insight, and strength to every interaction. Her ability to connect with families personally has helped build trust and foster open communication, which creates real, lasting support systems within the community and the Fortune School of Education. Kelly doesn’t just talk about change—she works hard to make it happen, and her presence is felt in the lives she touches every day. Personally, Ms. Baptiste’s support has meant the world to me. Her attention to my needs, willingness to listen without judgment, and personalized guidance have helped me grow in confidence and in my role as the Parent Liaison at Hazel Mahone College Prep. She has a warm, personable approach that makes you feel seen, heard, and empowered. Kelly Baptiste is truly making a difference—not just through her hard work but also through the heart and commitment she brings to everything she does. Our school and community are better because of her.
Donna Johnson Parent | Los Angeles, CA
Mrs. Baptiste was very instrumental in assisting me with my son who was diagnosed with ADHD. She ordered a book to assist with the meetings she would host with me and other parents who were also dealing with this matter. Being able to understand the dynamics of ADHD was very helpful. Then seeking additional assistance helped too.
Shadon VasquezParent | Gardena, CA
Mrs Kelly was a great coach! TIME for Parenting truly helped me understand my children on a different level. It gave me tools to connect with them in a more patient and intentional way. I feel more confident as a parent, and our relationship is stronger because of it.
Andrea CarltonGrandparent | Carson, CA
Kelly’s parenting coaching skills had a great effect on myself and my husband. She provided us with great tools on how to approach almost every situation with our grandchildren , how to in-steal confidence, making them feel safe to talk to us about what they’re feeling, making homework fun, knowing how to calm them down, and so much more. It’s been a great experience working with Kelly. We learned so much. She’s a blessing.
Derek HubbardDirector | Watts Learning Center Los Angeles
Parent Coaching has played a vital role supporting the families of our TK–2nd grade Special Day Class (SDC) students at Watts Learning Center (WLC). Through a comprehensive offering of parent education classes, workshops, and one-on-one mentoring, the program empowers families by expanding their understanding of child development, learning differences, and effective home-school collaboration. Parents gain access to practical tools and community resources that help them navigate the everyday and long-term challenges of parenting—particularly in the context of supporting students with unique learning needs. We are deeply grateful for the program’s commitment to equipping families with the resources and strategies they need to support their children both inside and outside of the classroom. I wholeheartedly recommend this program to any school or organization seeking to build stronger, more resilient, and better-informed parent communities.
Christopher SouzaParent | Gardena, CA
My son Christopher has a learning disability. Kelly's coaching supported me in my ability to build a relationship with Christopher based on trust and patience, which is maybe the most impressive part. I was comfortable with her because I can tell she cares. Her patience and different approaches taught me how to work with Christopher. At the start of my sessions with Kelly, Christopher's speech and ability to recognize letters in sequence was limited, which frustrated Christopher, and me. Kelly taught me how to meet Christopher where he is and to help him regulate his emotions, when frustrated.I attribute that to Kelly's coaching methods. We are appreciative of the time spent with Kelly.
Valerie JenkinsMaster Teacher | Fortune School of Education
Working with Kelly Baptiste has been a transformative experience. Her ability to engage and build trust with parent groups has strengthened our school’s connection with families, creating a more inclusive and collaborative environment. Through her thoughtful coaching and unwavering support, Kelly has empowered both parents and staff—myself included—to communicate more effectively, understand student needs more deeply, and work together toward shared goals. Her impact has been both personal and far-reaching.

The Biggest Challenges Parents Face Today

Parenting has never been easy, but today’s world adds a whole new layer of complexity. Between rapid technology shifts, increasing social pressures, and emotional demands, raising children in the modern age can feel overwhelming. You’re not alone and you’re not doing anything wrong. These are just some of the real challenges today’s parents are navigating:

Balancing Work, Life, and Family

The struggle of the juggle is real. Between career demands, household responsibilities, and the desire to be truly present for your kids, burnout and guilt are far too common among today’s parents.

Discipline & Boundaries That Work

Setting safe limits while maintaining trust and open communication takes a special kind of parenting strategy; skills that many parents are unaware of, still learning, or trying to fine-tune.

Emotional Health & Resilience

More children and teens are experiencing anxiety, depression, and emotional overload.  Supporting their mental well-being requires awareness, sensitivity, and tools.  The benefits of learning strategies from an objective professional can assist parents who are eager to learn how, and where, to begin.
