It takes a village to raise a child. African Proverb
Parents are the experts of their children but you don't have to parent alone. You may at times be unsure why your child is behaving in a certain way, would like to seek an unbiased second opinion about the school's recommendations, or maybe you appreciate some ideas and strategies that can help improve your relationship with your child. As a consultant, our job foremost is to listen, understand, and clarify your concerns. We will draw upon our years of experience working within school districts and implementing research-based interventions, to suggest a plan for how we may address your concerns.
Examples of questions parents have consulted on
My child hits and bites other children. What should I do?
My child's daycare teacher reported that he is not making progress in all areas. Should I be concerned?

Should I send my child to a public or private school?
My child is addicted to technology, help!
Should my child be retained?
My child is smart but her grades don't reflect that. What may be going on?
