More about Bernadette
"Thank you, Bibi, for the Conscious Discipline training. It has been monumental in changing the way I communicate with my children. It has changed the whole dynamic of our family. I first attended the training solo and then applied it at home. The example I lead via the training caught my husband’s attention. He has since attend the second session alongside me. This really has united us with our parenting styles and has helped improved our relationship. It really has helped me to reflect within myself and grow more as a person, parent and mother. We truly appreciate all you have taught us from the bottom of our hearts, we thank you!"
"As a mother of a very rambunctious 5 year old, I was learning very quickly that the parenting skills I grew up with, namely, "Do as I say, not as I do," were not effective. They would work, but at the cost of my relationship with my son. Bibi's trainings have been crucial for me to first, become aware of my reactions and replace those reactions with an ability to respond appropriately to children's needs. My Conscious Discipline training has been pivotal in my growth as a teacher, mother and person in general!"
"Bibi was amazing! I started the morning with my mind set on the training being another boring class to be enforced at our school, but this lesson was different. I enjoyed every second and every experience she shared. I left telling myself, "I can do this!"
"Bibi was great, and her demonstrations were interactive and engaging. Very warm individual who made the workshop enjoyable and interesting."
