"I was delighted with your presentation. It was in direct alignment with my own perspective and when I read the information on your website, that first time I was curious to see what it was all about based on your signature to emails, I knew it was something I wanted to share with as many of my clients/parents as possible. I wish there would have been 200 present last night because I know how beneficial this will be to all who made the effort to come and work on Connection Parenting. You were amazing! I love your style of presentation and that's saying a lot coming from me, as I have high standards of measurement for presenters!!!!" - Jeanie Roemer, director Kindermusik/ Smart Start Music, LLCwww.SmartStartMusic.com

Testimonials

"Thank you for the presentation last night. I especially loved the part about modeling the desired behavior with your spouse. It seems so trivial, yet so important. Thank you for sending the resources in your email as well."

- Radhika Woodruff

"I appreciated the fact that Kristy shared that she doesn’t react when her daughter throws a fit in public. She just stays calm and talks her through it and let’s people stare. Those situations are definitely less stressful if you don’t worry about people staring…just let them stare. It was great to hear what the other parents in the class were saying because it helped me realize that other people’s kids do crazy things too."

- Jennifer Wardlaw

"Sometimes as parents it's easy to get stuck in a rut. This class helped me realize the many other options there are for raising our children. Connection Parenting helped me remember the importance of focusing on the positive aspects of our kids lives." - Dena Geier

"The Connection Parenting Class was a great way for my husband and I to get on the same page with our parenting goals. Kristy was able to remind us of the good parenting skills that we already have and give us new tips to help make our relationships with our children more positive." - Sarah Durrant
