Dr. Naaila | Co-Parenting with a Narcissist

Protect Your Child from a Narcissistic Co-Parent.

I’m Dr. Naaila Chagani, a Doctor of Child Development. This channel is for the emotionally safe parent co-parenting alongside a toxic or narcissistic parent.

If your child comes home withdrawn, confused, emotionally reactive, or “different” after time with the other parent, and you’re afraid of making things worse by saying the wrong thing, you’re in the right place.

My work focuses on protecting children’s emotional development in asymmetric co-parenting dynamics, where one parent is emotionally unsafe or manipulative and the other is trying to be the anchor. This channel is especially for parents of younger children, where emotional safety, attachment, and nervous system regulation matter more than logic or explanations.

Here, you’ll learn how to protect your child’s emotional world, respond to manipulation without escalating conflict, and become the steady presence your child can always return to.
