Welcome Mama! I'm so glad you're here!

My name is Lynn Turcotte-Schuh,
​but my clients call me "The Toddler Trainer"

That's because I use my 10+ years of Marine Mammal training experience to coach At-Home-Mamas in finding the small moments that can make big changes in their child's behavior. Need an example? Here's a really simple one...
Grace was fighting her son during diaper changes. Within 60 seconds we completely changed the dynamic. She gave her son the clean diaper to hold so he'd have a job. He liked it at first but then threw it on the floor. She gave him another. He threw that one too.  On the third diaper, she asked him to play peek-a-boo with it. That was the trick. Now his job when changing his diaper is to hold the clean diaper and play peek-a-boo while Mama cleans him up. No yelling. Nobody feels bad. No more fighting. Success!
Mama, you're in the right place if you:
  • Have little struggles like this that add up to big frustration
  • Are ready to move from the touched-out monotony of day-to-day into a place of true and deep connection
  • Are ready to ditch the guilt, find more patience and build an authentic connection with your little one​
In addition to being the "Toddler Trainer", I'm also the CEM (Chief Executive Mama) & CAPPA Certified Childbirth Educator at Happy Mama Wellness as well as the founder of the Happy Mama Hapu where we are bringing back the tribe of judgement-free support that every Mama needs. Happy Mama Wellness is all about taking a holistic approach to parenting so the entire family is happy and well in body, mind and spirit.
​​My parenting philosophy combines facets of Positive Parenting, Conscious Parenting, Connected Parenting, Holistic Parenting and Get-Through-The-Day-Alive Parenting with the science of how ALL living things learn (called Operant Conditioning) I coach overhwelmed Mamas to better understand themselves and their child so they can spend less time yelling and more time connecting.

This is my family.

My "WHY". The reason I left my career as a Marine Mammal Trainer and started Happy Mama Wellness. This little ball of energy (aka, my daughter) keeps me on my toes, brings sunshine to every day and has taught me more about the person I want to be when I grow up than anything else in my life.
​
In my personal life, I love being outdoors, going on family adventures, hanging out on our wannabe homestead, game night, crochet, gardening and 90's Hip Hop. I am a huge Will Evans fan and have a dance party in my kitchen every day!
Your turn!
