More About Laura Angulo (Bilingual) arrow-right

Laura Angulo’s dedication to Conscious Discipline is easy to see in her career as a bilingual educator and certified child psychologist, and at home with her two daughters. Laura resides in Bogotá, Columbia where she partners with a facility for abandoned children, a cause close to her heart. At Chiquitines, Laura applies her vast Conscious Discipline knowledge, providing hope and a way forward for the facility’s 100 children from ages 0-8 and 30 staff members. She carries this hope and skill into her community and beyond by serving as an international instructor for Conscious Discipline since 2015. 

Born in Bogotá Colombia and raised in Florida, Laura studied Psychology and Special Education at the University of Miami. After years as a Special Education teacher, Laura realized her heart was invested in the formative years of children’s development. This inspired her to pursue her master’s degree in early childhood special education at the University of Miami. After her introduction to Conscious Discipline in 2004, Laura knew instinctively that it provided the “better way” she had been seeking from her formal education. Soon Laura became a Certified Instructor and began sharing Conscious Discipline in both English and Spanish-language trainings for parents and educators serving children from early childcare all the way through to k-12 schools in Colombia. 

Laura combines her Conscious Discipline knowledge and 20+ years of education experience in every role she holds, from her School Family to her family at home. In addition to her passion project at Chiquitines, Laura has provided training for teachers and parents at various sites throughout Bogotá including Misi Baby Spa, Arca de Noe and ADVENIO Colombia, where she is transforming five of their childcare and preschool sites to Conscious Discipline. Additionally, Laura has been working with the Inmensamente Foundation in implementing Conscious Discipline for underprivileged children and families in Gachancipa, Colombia. Laura also works alongside the Prema Foundation to bring the Safe Place to hospitals and medical facilities for both patients and medical staff; specifically, at La Fundación Cardioinfantil in Bogotá. 

Laura’s mission is to continue to spread the knowledge and strategies of Conscious Discipline throughout Colombia so new generations can be raised in safety and connection.
