Who am I?
A mother, wife, sister, daughter, friend, and The Child Whisperer. I help parents to decode their toddlers language (behavior) and put routines and strategies into play to help make the parenting life easier. I facilitate relationship building exercises and mediate discussions to teach parents how to communicate with their children. I help parents hear their children and help them to be heard by their children as well. Some have called me "The Parenting Holy Ghost (cryyyying), but I just call myself the child whisperer. I have over a decade of experience working with children and families and specialized training in behavior, I've learned to read reasons for certain behaviors that some people cannot. I'm here to help you understand your kiddo and enter a new peaceful life in parenting...well, as peaceful as it can get because we know how children can be (haha!). Here are some more facts about me:
-I have an associate degree in Early Childhood Education with a focus in Special Education.
-I was a registered behavior technician but I am not anymore because I no longer practice ABA.
-I am a certified infant and toddler specialist.
-I have a bachelors in Sociology from the University of North Carolina at Pembroke.
Communication:
It's a two-way street that involves active listening, patience, and sometimes--when possible, a little compromise. Our children's behavior, no matter their age, is communicating something to you. If we can get past how their behavior makes us feel and focus on what their behavior is telling us, we can lead a better discussion and teach them how to communicate in more acceptable ways.
Boundaries:
Children need boundaries in order to learn how to set them for themselves. The relationship they have with you is the first one they will ever have and sets in motion how they operate with other people. It's important that parents make space for children to exercise their voice and set boundaries with you and learn to respect your boundaries, too.
My Parenting Beliefs
Fun:
Children do not learn well from people that they do not like. if they do not like, respect, and are always anxious around you, it will be hard for them to learn and listen to you. Learn to have fun with your children to gain a better connection. Don't just provide a means for them to enjoy themselves a part from you, join in on the games and activities that they enjoy. Making memories is essential for your relationship

Book Reviews
"Memories of My Mommy is a wonderful book for children and adults alike. This book warms your heart and makes you think of all the special people in your life. It reminds you that every moment is to be enjoyed and to make every moment count. This book deals with loss and grieving, but it also brings comfort and happiness. Memories of My Mommy provokes you to reminisce of the moments you share with the people who matter most. I recommend this for any child who has lost a mother or any adult who has lost a friend."
