"Caring Discipline, Training of Trainers",
Mon and Wed (+ one Th), 6-8 pm,
September 25-October 11
In this seven-session virtual series, you will learn the "Caring Discipline" curriculum inside & out.

You will be able to teach educators to use the approach in their own classrooms as well as coach families to use it in their homes.

You can become the point person in your school (and community) for educators & families to learn from you. Expect 14, set two, hours of class, a year of coaching from Amy, and practice in-between sessions.

This comes with an interactive workbook, a copy of "Caring Discipline: Practical Tools for Nurturing Happy Families & Classrooms" by JoAnne Nordling, M.Ed., and extended coaching from Amy.

Remember. Oregon’s Family Child Care Scholarship supports professional development for Oregon’s Registered Family and Certified Family Child Care Providers.

"We love Amy! She is a talented coach who leads with her heart. Amy has a valuable ability to see both the forest and the trees, from a parent, educator, and child perspective. Amy’s style will make you feel simultaneously respected, nurtured, and understood, and despite smoothly raising two amazing daughters to adulthood, she will never make you feel judged or as if a difficult child is that way because you are parenting the wrong way. She will teach you, a lot, without you even realizing you are being taught. Five stars; highly recommend."

"I was able to immediately bring this tool back to my classroom with fresh insight and a new lens to see each of my students with greater clarity. I am able to see where I fit in and how my preferences inform and sometimes cloud my ability to see the child for who they present at each moment. Powerful!"
