Giving children their voice and helping parents feel heard
Kate Silverton is a mum to two young children, a Sunday Times best-selling author, qualified child therapist, motivational speaker and one of the UK’s best-known broadcasters.
Her passion is to support families and carers and to ensure all children feel safe, seen, heard and understood.
Two groundbreaking books for parents
Kate has written two Sunday Times bestselling books sharing her break-through new approach to parenting - There’s No Such Thing As ‘Naughty’, the definitive guide to parenting under-fives and There’s Still No Such Thing As ‘Naughty’, her follow-up for parents of 5-12 years.
Kate shares unique strategies, easy-to-follow scripts and simple techniques that will enable parents to manage those tricky everyday challenges with ease - and help you to enjoy the strongest bond possible with your child, both now and in the years ahead.
Her ten pillars of parenting provide an essential toolbox for parents, showing them how to help their child to better regulate their emotions, cultivate resilience, foster empathy and, ultimately, navigate thoughts and big feelings with ease.
"As a child therapist and a parent with two children, I know how difficult, demanding and consuming the job can be. I’ve written my books to answer parents’ questions about their children’s behaviour, make their lives easier, and restore joy and harmony in our homes."

About Kate
A mother to two young children, in 2020, Kate made what many considered a brave mid-life decision to switch lanes and change careers. After a celebrated career in the fast lane of modern broadcasting and journalism, she followed her heart and found joy, returning to her academic roots in child psychology.
"If we want a healthy relationship with our partners, it takes investment and thought. We let them know we care for them and that we want to spend time with them, doing things we both enjoy. It's no different for our children. All children need to thrive is to feel safe, loved and understood."
