The "Tantrum" audio was amazing and I am already putting it to work with my 4 year old and 18 month old.

Mother of twoThank you so much for your [tantrum] Audio.....I listened to it last night and I find the info AMAZING!!!...Some of it I instinctively knew but just hadn't acted upon it. Thank you so much once again.

Father of twoYour feedback was practical, kind and completely welcome! And I’ve left our chat feeling reassured that I can trust my own instincts on how to respond to my son’s separation anxiety.

Mother of 2 girlsThis gentle and sensitive gift of wisdom and understanding has instantly created a change in behaviour in my son when he is confronted by something he wants and is not getting. For me it has created the relief and joy of not feeling stressed and powerless in a tantrum situation and the reassurance that it’s ok to set some loving boundaries.
