RCB is a positive and powerful approach that teaches effective parenting skills.  This 5-session course provides practical techniques for parents to help children become more responsible, confident, and cooperative.

RCB’s family fundamentals complement the Montessori educational approach -   it’s a great opportunity to learn techniques that will reinforce the experience your child has everyday at school! 

We will discuss how to:

  • Family relationships
  • Parenting styles
  • Understanding why children misbehave
  • Specific techniques for dealing with misbehavior
  • Being kind and firm instead of arguing
  • Setting limits and sticking to them
  • Resolving conflicts without power struggles.
