Holistic Babies London

Hello,

I am André Penafiel, a certified personal coach with additional training in counselling and psychotherapy. As part of the Holistic Babies team, I complement the support already offered to mothers and babies by providing coaching specifically for fathers—ensuring that men are equally supported in their transition into parenthood.

My coaching helps fathers feel more grounded, emotionally present, and confident in their role, contributing to healthier family dynamics and a more balanced, supportive home environment.

Parenthood can be equally exciting and overwhelming and each one of us experience a mix of feelings, at different stages. The good news is, you do not have to navigate it on your own.

I offer a supportive, empathetic space for expectant and new fathers to explore the emotional and practical shifts of parenthood: from changes in identity and responsibility to balancing work and home life. Clients can expect professionalism, confidentiality and tailored support.

My background includes 13 years of teaching and research at the University of Oxford, extensive training in coaching and psychology and a lifelong personal development journey.

No matter where you are, or how big or small the challenges may be, I would be honoured to help you discover a path that works for you.

Languages Spoken: English (fluent), Portuguese (native).
