Listen to what parents and educators have to say about their experience with Shivonne.
We are blessed to have found Shivonne. Our four and a half year old son has always been a very strong-willed, passionate and independent child, but since age three and a half he has become extremely challenging. We have dealt with everything under the sun when it comes to bad behavior and we were really struggling to maintain our composure and be good parents.
Shivonne listened to us, addressed all our concerns and came up with a plan to help us support our son, as well as keep our sanity. She wrote a detailed plan for us that we were able to refer back to whenever needed, which is a huge plus for us. She is also always available to chat if we have a difficult day, which helps us keep our sanity!
We have seen huge changes in oursons behavior and are so happy to be functioning better as a family. Thank you so much Shivonne!
Without Shivonne, we don't think we would have noticed the connection between our child's low self-confidence (at the time) and their struggles with social interactions or making friends. Looking at all the growth our little one has had in just the past year, it's like night and day in a lot of ways. Granted the growth was all theirs but we truly believe that Shivonne gave us the tools to enable them to grow in the way that they did. Also, being reaffirmed that you're doing a great job when you can't see it yourself (especially after a challenging moment) can make all the difference.
