"It is so wonderful for both parents, especially, to take part in and obtain knowledge that can greatly enhance you and your baby's bond for a lifetime. I am forever grateful for this knowledge and experience and the impact it will have on our family's relationship and the well being of my son."

- Ashley Abney

“I learned so many new ways to interact with my baby, and learned techniques to keep him entertained, well adjusted, happy, well-digested and ungassy, and I even learned to incorporate massage with song to help me remember the steps as well as give him something to look forward to. I was able to incorporate this into our daily night time routine so my son is able to understand that he is being slowly put to sleep."

- Yoo-Kim
