The Citrus Growth Framework™ is a psychology-informed framework that integrates research on matrescence, child development, attachment and emotional wellbeing into practical support for mothers. Rather than focusing only on milestones, it explores the emotional, psychological and relational changes that happen throughout motherhood.
From the very beginning through the school years, eight stages growing alongside your family. .
The Seed stage holds the beginning - the hopes, the changes and the quiet preparation before your baby arrives.
Sprout covers the first year, where everything is new for you and your baby at once.
Kumquat follows the toddler years - movement, language and the first real negotiations.
Mandarin marks the move into kindy and early school, and the social world that opens up.
Orange holds the middle primary years, as independence and friendships take centre stage.
Grapefruit carries through high school, where the relationship keeps growing and changing.
Lemon marks the moment the cycle turns - when your child steps into motherhood herself, and you see your own journey reflected back.
Lime turns the lens to the other parent - the father's own journey, his growth alongside motherhood and the role he plays in the family's story.
Answer a few short questions about where you and your child are right now, and we'll point you to the stage and program that fits.
