I conducted home visits to support and educate parents in three critical areas: safety, health, and parent-child interaction. My role involved delivering personalized, evidence-based sessions designed to empower parents with the skills and knowledge needed to create a safe and nurturing environment for their children. And fostering age-appropriate activities that promote cognitive and emotional development.

Each session was tailored to the specific needs of the family, and I followed up regularly to ensure that parents were implementing the skills they had learned. Sessions included a mix of direct instruction, demonstration, and interactive discussions, with practical strategies parents could apply in their daily lives. I also provided resources such as printed materials and referrals to community support services when needed.

• In my role as an independent Positive Discipline Instructor, I worked directly with parents on a one-on-one basis to teach them essential skills for fostering positive behavior in their children.
• I designed personalized, session-based training for each parent, focusing on teaching age-appropriate discipline techniques. I provided step-by-step guidance on how to set clear boundaries, implement fair consequences, and encourage positive behavior through reinforcement.
• I worked closely with parents to develop strong communication skills, showing them how to express expectations calmly and listen actively to their children. I emphasized the importance of open, honest, and respectful communication in preventing conflicts and promoting mutual understanding.
• I taught parents strategies for managing difficult situations and emotional outbursts. This included role-playing scenarios to practice techniques for remaining calm, setting limits, and redirecting negative behavior in a constructive manner.
