Testimonials:

“I participated in the last Mommy Matters class and it was a huge help to me and my family. I got so much out of the class and we have already seen improvements in my son's behavior (and in our parenting). I highly recommend it!”
Sarah R, Green Lake Mom

“I was in the Mommy Matters group offered last spring and highly recommend it to anyone looking for information and support around
raising a toddler. Some of the information was new and some I was familiar with, but I think that what was most valuable was having a
group of intelligent and thoughtful women to share ideas and experiences with. Robin and Melissa were very good at drawing out people for open conversation and gently leading the discussions. We
talked about practical approaches as well as more theoretical ideas around parenting. And, I came away knowing a group of supportive, capable and admirable women.” KK, Wallingford Mom

***** This group is for moms only – the goal is to fully support moms in creating a space for themselves to be intentional about parenting.******
