About John

Founder John Wood is a teacher with over 30 years experience in various primary, secondary and tertiary settings in both public and private schools.

He has a Graduate Diploma in Psychological Studies, is trained in multiple Parent Education programs and has 9 years of experience working in the field of Parent Education.

Critically, the adjustments he creates have been shown to work, starting to improve family relationships from the minute you start putting what you have learnt into practice.

John lives with his wife in beautiful Port Macquarie on the NSW Mid-North Coast and has two adult children, and two adult step-children. He is passionate about raising good kids, sport, family and friends and the odd board game!

‘The relationship that you have with your child will have more of an impact on their ultimate success and happiness than any other factor. Fantastic Families was created with the sole purpose of helping parents to raise happy, productive, well-adjusted kids in a happy, productive, well-adjusted family. While there will always be issues, there are basics that are easily learnt that will minimise conflict, maximise your child’s potential and build relationships strong enough to survive the testing times.’
