Hi There! I'm Dr. Becca Ballinger 👋

I'm a child psychologist, and more importantly, a mom who's ridden the wild rollercoaster of parenting (divorce and all). My grown kids, now carving their path in the legal world (one's a sunny Southern California prosecutor, and the other's acing law school), are my biggest life lessons in nurturing a child's true passions.


Life post-divorce and raising two incredible young adults inspired me to focus on helping parents like you. In my busy private practice, my team and I are all about supporting families through every twist and turn. And every week, I bring this passion to The Modern Parenting Solutions Podcast – think of it as our weekly coffee chat about all things parenting.


I’m a big believer in raising kids to be happy, healthy, motivated, and let's not forget, interesting and moral people. How? By blending the latest psychological insights with real, in-the-trenches parenting experiences. My online classes are packed with these down-to-earth strategies – yep, the very ones I've tried and tested at home.


Join me, and let's turn your parenting challenges into moments of growth and joy. In my classes, you'll find a toolkit bursting with strategies to make you a happier parent and build that all-important bond with your child or teen. Ready to start this journey together? Let’s raise some amazing, well-rounded kids. Your adventure to more fulfilling parenting begins right here – let's make it fun and rewarding!

How is this course different from the other online co-parenting courses?


This course was designed and taught by Dr. Becca Ballinger, a leading expert in Modern Parenting.

What Is Modern Parenting?

Modern Parenting is a parenting style that focuses on family-centered, research-informed, and connection focused parenting solutions.

Today’s parents want to be PROUD of their family (whether they are part of a traditional or non-traditional family structure) and CONFIDENT of their parenting decisions.

The Modern Co-Parenting Course:

  • Covers the relevant information you need to satisfy the requirements of your Family Court case while also making the information relevant to YOU
  • Doesn't waste your time
  • Never talks down to you.

This course emphasizes improving the parent-child relationship, as well as improving your overall confidence as a parent. You'll leave this course feeling confident and prepared for whatever your co-parenting journey brings you!
