This course included so much valuable information that I wish I had from the start. As a new mama there is too much information out there, which often makes us question our approach. Lauren offered great knowledge and helped give me the confidence to continue parenting using my intuition and what feels right, while offering suggestions to make gentle changes to things that are no longer working.
