Praise for Transforming Toddlerhood
“True transformation happens when we stop seeing toddler behaviors as problems to fix and start seeing them as opportunities to grow. Devon provides the perfect blend of conscious parenting wisdom and real-world tools, giving parents everything they need to stay connected and calm in their most challenging moments.”
Dr. Shefali, New York Times bestselling author of The Conscious Parent and The Awakened Family
“I call the twos the ‘teachable twos,’ and Devon thinks the same. As a mom of twins who’s learned that emotional regulation starts with your own emotional regulation and presence, I found this book to be a game‑changer.”
Hilary Swank, award-winning actress
“More than anything, Transforming Toddlerhood is a toolkit. Parents can come back to it again and again to help them navigate the power struggles, big emotions, and growing independence that come with this important stage of development.”

Hunter Clarke-Fields, author of Raising Good Humans & host of the Mindful Mama Podcast
Hi, I’m Devon Kuntzman, founder of Transforming Toddlerhood, certified coach, and toddler parent who gets it.
I’m on a mission to flip the script on the “terrible twos,” “threenagers,” “fearsome fours,” and “frightful fives,” and help parents see toddlerhood for what it really is: a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to lay the foundation of social, emotional, and relationship skills.
As the original toddler parenting coach on Instagram and an ICF-certified coach with a degree in psychology and child development, I’ve helped tens of thousands of families worldwide navigate toddlerhood with more calm, confidence, and joy.
I wrote this book because I believe parents deserve support, not guilt, and toddlers deserve to be understood, not just managed.
This book is not about being a “perfect parent,” it’s about providing you the tools, encouragement, and fresh perspective to turn this challenging season into one of the most meaningful and rewarding chapters of your parenting journey.
Let’s transform toddlerhood, together!
