Our Mission - bring back the joy of parenting.

Quickly, please help me put your clothes on, we're going to be late. Come eat your breakfast. Time to brush your teeth. And your hair.  Ok now put your shoes on. Ok everyone let's go get in the car. Get in the car. Get in the car!!

At Two Buckets Co, we know the drill (and stress) of modern day life. Let's take a step back though and just think - how much of the time you spend with your kids is spent asking them to do things for you, not with you.

What if we told you that spending just ten minutes a day empowering and connecting with your kids can have dramatic positive results - to your relationship, and their behaviour?

At Two Buckets Co., we flip the script. We believe (and child psychologists agree) that every child has two emotional 'buckets' that need filling each day: one for attention (connection, safety, love) and one for empowerment (independence, capability, choice). When either bucket runs low, you’ll see it in tantrums, resistance, power struggles, and emotional meltdowns or 'big feelings'.

When both buckets are full? That's when the magic happens.

Using child psychology principles backed by gentle parenting, positive discipline, and even Montessori-style independence, we support parents to build stronger relationships through simple, science-backed routines. 

You don't need an hour. Your kids absolutely do not need a screen. You don't need to buy anything expensive. We give you the tools to connect with your kids for just ten minutes a day. Sometimes you'll need some really basic things like pens and paper, but usually you can participate with absolutely nothing at all. Just use your imagination to grounded, real-life connection that leads to more cooperation, fewer battles, and a stronger bond — even on the busiest days.

When was the last time you truly played with your kids?

Together, let’s fill their buckets… and maybe yours, too.
