A Promise to Parents
Vision Statement:
Every child will have a home where they feel loved unconditionally, where their spirit is honored and nurtured, and where they are taught the power of love.
I will support parents in raising children with the highest Self-esteem.
I will support families in their desire to be a team and create a joyful home.
As an RCB Instructor I am committed whole-heartedly to the families I support. I enjoy bringing the reading material to life, having fun with the role-plays and teaching the RCB principles to empower parents.
Teaching RCB to families is my passion in life and my greatest joy comes from hearing the successes stories parents and children share with me.

my RCB Story how it all began
I had the most wonderful experience 15 years ago when I gave birth to a beautiful baby girl named Keri.I was so excited! I was sure going to be the perfect mom and all I needed was Love. I wasn’t going to be like those other Moms. You know. . .those Moms you see around the neighborhood and at the grocery store who yell and spank. I told myself I would never ever do that.
Well, the first 2 years were pretty easy and I knew exactly what to do. Getting little sleep and messy diapers, no problem, because I’m a perfect loving Mom.
Then slowly things started to change and Keri began walking and talking. My little baby girl was changing in other ways too. Unfamiliar behaviors started to emerge. The power struggles began and they wouldn’t stop. Everyday routines became a battle and, yes, my 2-year-old little girl was now ruling our peaceful home. This time I had no idea what to do!
Then one morning I was sharing my frustration with a respected friend. We shared similar beliefs that children could be encouraged to cooperate and be disciplined in peaceful ways. The next week I enrolled in the RCB course.
One of the most empowering facts I learned in the first session was that there is no such thing as a perfect parent.
Within the first 2 weeks I noticed a big improvement, and after the full 5 weeks our home was a place of peace and joy.
No longer do I judge other parents because I have walked in their shoes. I now look at parents with great compassion, knowing what it feels like to be overwhelmed and unsure. We all love our children and are doing the best we know how. Keri is now a young teen and I’m not afraid.
The Redirecting Children’s Behavior principles have supported me in raising my daughter peacefully and respectfully through early childhood ,and will continue to support me through any challenges that may occur in the teen years, while keeping a close loving relationship with my daughter.
