WHAT PARENTS ARE SAYING ABOUT ROSIE CENTENO'S PARENTING
PROGRAMS:
Holly Nedelka talks about
how she used
the
WHOLE CHILD MODEL™ and
the
HEART HABIT™ along
with the communication skills she gained at one of Rosie's
seminars less than 24 hours
after attending. These tools
instantly stopped
a problem situation.

"ETERNALLY
GRATEFUL"
"Rosie has given me some
simple and thoroughly effective parenting tools that I have
found invaluable. One
of these I employ several times a day, during the course of
"standoffs" when my two year old has different ideas than I
(going outside in the snow with no clothes on, painting the
walls with tomato sauce....) Rosie has saved my
daughter and me a great deal of
frustration, and I'm
eternally grateful for her insight."

"REWARDING ALL
AROUND"
Our
first session last week was extremely helpful to me and got
me thinking (and talking to my husband) about what kind of
parent I want to be.
Your suggestions were easier to do than I thought they might
be--I predicted that I'd be gung ho for the 1st two days
and then fall off, but I was able to stay pretty
consistent. Over the weekend, my husband even remarked that
I should get an "A+" for my assignment!
And the boys were definitely
more responsive to my limit setting than they were in the
past!
I felt more relaxed this week in my
interactions with my sons (and my husband). We played a lot
more, I let myself get silly, and I was able to up my
tolerance for mess and noise.
As a result, they had a really good week and laughed and
smiled a lot.
The boys also went to bed a lot easier this week. It could
be because I was spending more quality time with them so
they didn't feel like they had to stay awake, cry and call
for me, in order to get time with me.
I
also got a lot more hugs and kisses! So it was rewarding all
around!

"LIFE-CHANGING COURSE"
"Rosie's
Connection Parenting course was a life-changing
experience for me. I
left the course with both principles and practices to help
me develop relationships with children in productive and
joyful ways. In particular, the listening exercises and
exploring my family of origin's behaviors proved incredibly
fruitful for me. Rosie is a
knowledgeable and caring instructor who works hard to
ensure each participant is
getting the most out of the learning
experience."

"THE BEST PARENTING CLASS"
"I cannot say enough good
things about Joyful Attachments and Rosie. She is an
awesome life coach and parenting mentor.
She doesn't just teach the principles but really lives
them.
Her course is a must for first-time parents, parents with
multiple children, grandparents, aunts, uncles,
caregivers...Really it's for ALL parents and anyone who has
a child in their life. It is applicable to all ages--the
terrible twos, toddler years, pre-teens, teens and
beyond!
This is the best tool any parent can
have!
--Annette
Perel, DONA Certified Doula and Mom to Danny
"EXCELLENT
PARENTING CLASS"
"Rosie's class is a great experience of
talking about parenting in a compassionate environment and
also hearing the experiences of other moms, caregivers and
professionals. I needed feedback and understanding because
I lost my mom at the age of 12. I also needed more
parenting tools,
because I didn't grow up with a caregiver who was willing
to take that time for most of my life, even though there
were good intentions along the way."

Actor and Mom to Nathan
Jeremy Courage talks about
