When parents separate, one of the biggest concerns is how to minimise disruption for their children while navigating the emotional and practical realities of divorce. One option that is becoming increasingly popular is nesting—an arrangement where the children remain in the family home, and the parents take turns living there.
It sounds like the perfect solution, but is it really sustainable in the long term? 🤔
In this episode, I’m joined by Bernadette Najjar, a certified parenting coach with more than 30 years of experience supporting children and families. Through her work at Thrive Together Parenting, Bernadette helps parents navigate separation, co-parenting challenges, and building stronger relationships with their children.
Together, we discuss:
✨ What nesting is and why some families choose it during divorce
✨ The real impact of nesting on children
✨ The potential benefits of nesting after separation
✨ How parents may benefit from this arrangement
✨ The challenges and complications that can arise
✨ When nesting works best—and what parents should consider before choosing it
Whether you are considering nesting yourself or simply exploring different co-parenting arrangements, this conversation offers practical insights to help you make informed decisions for your family. ❤️
