We're parents, just like you.

Hi! We're J and Ash, parents who know the feeling behind our name all too well. Panicked Parent Press makes practical, no-jargon books for the moments when you're handed a whistle, a clipboard or a rainy Saturday and have no idea where to start. We don't have all the answers. But we do the homework, try it out with real kids, and write down what works.

We've had our kids in sports with volunteer coaches who weren't given the tools they needed on the field. We couldn't find the simple guide we wanted, so we wrote it ourselves.

Our books are short, practical and made to be used, not shelved. Coaching for Beginners helps first-time coaches run a good practice and game tonight. Recipe Detectives gets kids ages 8 to 12 off screens and into the kitchen. Don't panic. Here's the playbook.
