“Debbie is phenomenal! I own Fit4Mom in Aliso Viejo and she was kind enough to speak to our group. She is passionate about making the parenting journey enjoyable and rewarding! Her suggestions are easily applied. I also love how safe she made all the parents feel – she listened to our concerns with empathy and everyone left the
presentation with more tools to use with their children. I love how many handouts she provided; I was able to share with my husband so that we could be on the same page! I am thankful that Debbie has come into my life and I look forward to future workshops!!”

I sought out Debbie’s assistance because I was tired of losing my patience and feeling frustrated when my daughter wouldn’t listen. Debbie is so kind and patient, and she taught us positive parenting techniques that worked! I have not raised my voice in weeks and I no longer feel like I am in a constant struggle. I feel relaxed and empowered.”
