Thank you thank you thank you! Wow! What an incredible experience to have had Melissa come speak to our mommas! She is not only sweet and endearing, easy to talk and listen to, and full of experience, knowledge and educated expertise; but she makes you feel seen, known, heard and as if you had already known her for years! Her presentation was so helpful to all who were there and helped give us all a few more “tools” in our parenting tool belts. I highly recommend you seek her out and have her be a part of your parenting experience! I cannot say enough about how great she was!
