Helping kids become
the boss of themselves About Us

Slide We start with the premise
that every child wants
to meet expectations.
WE HELP THEM SUCCEED. Slide We teach from the inside out.
FEELINGS FIRST.
SKILLS SECOND. Slide We don't label kids.
LABELS ARE LIMITS. Slide BEHAVIOR IS COMMUNICATION.
We listen to the things
kids DON'T say. Slide Building emotional intelligence
takes time.
WE PRACTICE EXTREME PATIENCE. Slide When kids can manage
their INSIDE FEELINGS
they can focus on
outside things - like LEARNING. Slide We help kids and parents
get back on
THE SAME TEAM. Slide BEING ALLOWED TO SIT
WITH YOUR FEELINGS
is the first step in
mastering them. Slide SELF-ESTEEM BEGINS
when a child's feelings
ARE ACKNOWLEDGED AS NORMAL,
and treated as important.
