"Bethany has been an invaluable resource for our family. The breadth of her experiences - as a counselor, a Montessori guide, and a parent - combines with her kindness and wit to provide parenting coaching in the form of real life, really usable suggestions. She has helped our family immensely with handling both big transitions (new bed, new class, potty learning) and little every day occurrences. We are very grateful to have Bethany's guidance and support."

"My wife and I were really at a loss as to how we were going to deal with our very assertive 3 year old daughter. Bethany was able to help us learn to listen to our children, respect their feelings, while at the same time, setting age-appropriate boundaries for them. After we visited with Bethany we implemented the techniques she discussed and as a result, our stress levels decreased exponentially. Both our children continue to grow and thrive in ways we never imagined and we now plan to use Bethany's services whenever we need guidance or feel unsure about how we're raising our children. It's so nice for us to have the "security blanket" that knowing a professional like Bethany can provide. We have spoken with other parents who have had similar experiences with Bethany and would highly recommend her services to anyone who has children."

“Attending Bethany’s parenting workshops gave me such insight into the world of a child. It made me realize how important my language and attitude are in EVERY situation. I left each workshop with a notebook full of practical tools and tips as well as inspiration. With Bethany’s help, I’ve been able to create a rhythm to our day that is smooth and enjoyable and also create a family culture that is open and loving. What I find myself using the most with my daughter is Bethany’s C.A.R.E. Response Model. I am more calm and ready when disequilibrium occurs and am so thankful to have such a positive plan in place.”

"Bethany continues to impress me every time we work together. Her professionalism is impeccable; her advice invaluable. She has a gift with language and an ability to be loving and firm at the same time. With a sharp mind, she is able to glean what is important in a complicated situation and offer sound, practical advice. From personal counseling sessions to small or large-group workshops with staff or parents, she nails it every time. Always prompt, prepared, efficient, and thorough, Bethany is a partner you can trust."

"Having spent several years teaching toddlers as Bethany Prescott's teaching partner, I'm proud to say I've been "down in the trenches" with her. I carry many gifts from our time together. As a teacher your immediate focus is pulled towards making so many small but important moments happen: creating a sweet and centered story time, fine tuning transitions, making it to the potty, finding creative ways to channel those bundles of energy on a rainy day... She tackles teachable moments with both patience and infectious enthusiasm. Yet in addition to problem solving with children, Bethany has both the passion and skill for reaching parents in a way that I find truly inspiring. I always come away from our time together with new tools in my pocket, ready to dive into challenges with fresh confidence and, thank goodness, a renewed sense of humor. Empowering young children and the people that love them is a big task but I can think of no better guide to support the process."
