Child-rearing guidance

I am not only here to help you with caring for your baby and yourself, I am here to help you achieve your parenting goals. Every child has unique needs, desires, learning styles and developmental leaps that need your love and support. My motto for parenting is "We want our kids to not just survive, we want them to THRIVE". We can explore the differences between the two as well.
