Let me start off by saying this class was a beautiful experience for my baby and I. The office was…read morevery clean, and welcoming. Polly was very friendly, extremely knowledgeable, patient, and Kind. She answered all my questions and made my experience warm and comfortable. The class was not large like other classes I have heard about, which I loved and made my experience more enjoyable and all my questions were answered and not rushed. I felt good, happy and was looking forward to the next class. This is a great class if you are looking for a safe, loving, and happy environment for you and your baby to learn, play, and grow with other babies. You and your baby must attend!

I have already recommended this class to other parents I know and will continue to do so. Highly recommended.

I took a class through new beginnings and I cannot say enough good things about this program…read more Starting with Carlos and Lydia who were extremely professional and respond right away when you need help with anything. Robert, I can't say enough about this man, he was awesome. I learned a lot of valuable information from the meeting discusdions with him. He involves everybody in the class. I would recommend this class to anybody. Carlos Lydia Robert thank you very much for everything.

I needed a center to support me through my opened case. in whom I was required to take court order…read moreclasses. I went to 2 other centers But none of them provided me with exceptional customer service like New Beginnings. From the moment I called they showed the care that I was looking for. I was automatically enrolled and went through a short orientation which was detailed and very helpful especially if its your first time at the center. The staff is responsible, organized, caring, understanding and humble. You won't regret calling! Do it!

I have had the privilege of working with Erica as a first time mom. She did a great job with…read morehelping to work through some of the concerns that I have had that were affecting the way that I dealt with my son. What I liked about Erica was her method of questioning rather than just telling me what she thought. She asked me what my thoughts were when I shared something with her, and she helped me explore what messages my actions might be unintentionally sending to my family. She helped me come to my own conclusions rather than feeding me information that didn't ring true to my situation. She suggested a few books that could help me work through my situation. I left our session feeling like I had the tools to start making the necessary changes. It was a pleasure meeting with her in her calm and aesthetically pleasing office. She was inviting and welcoming which put me completely at ease.

I highly recommend Erica Stephenson. I took her class Presence in Parenting and learned so much…read more I found Erica to be educated, caring and the way she conveyed information was extremely helpful. In my opinion one of the best attribute about Erica is she does not tell you how you should parent or handle a situation. She identifies your parenting style and needs and presents options to you. In addition, I had a one on one consultation regarding choosing the best type of preschool for my son. Erica explained various philosophies and other key features when looking at schools. Her information has been invaluable during my preschool search.

A friend introduce me to this mommy and I class when my baby was 2 months old. I have attended…read morethese classes since then and my baby is 9 months old now. I highly recommend the Butterfly center. Rina is very knowledgeable, caring, patient, and friendly. These classes have helped my son become more social and these have also helped ME be better prepared as a new mom. It can be isolating staying at home taking care of a little one (and quite scary not knowing what to do as they grow). These classes have given me peace of mind and both my son and I get a lot from them. It also offers and opportunity to see other moms and learn from each other's experiences. Highly recommend!

I don't know how I would have gotten through the first year of my daughter's life without the guidance and support of Rina and all the wonderful moms that I have met through this program.

I'm sorry it took me so long to write a review here! I was looking back over some of the…read moreinformation from our sessions to discuss with a friend just now, and was reminded how transformational this process with you was for my daughter and I. It has been about two years I think at this point, and I am still talking about what a helpful turning point your support was during a challenging time. My daughter and I have been through unbelievable and tragic/chaotic life circumstances at times since, and are still overall both doing really well and connecting in health ways - living our best lives in a weird world! I am technically an expert in all of this, and was still just struggling, so I cannot give enough positive and true feedback on this process with you. Thanks again for everything, and figured better late than never, lol!

Don't usually write a review, but I thought Cassidy was sooo helpful that I want to share…read more My wife and I did the 12 week program over Zoom and it's been a game-changer. The idea here is that parenting is more of a self-centric (and partner-centric) exercise; throughout the program, Cassidy was responsive, flexible and very empathetic. What it does is give you a framework for how to make decisions about parenting. It fills in knowledge gaps around what our kids need. The content from Jai Institute for Parenting is good, but honestly it's Cassidy that makes the whole thing worthwhile. If you're at the point where you're even exploring a "parenting coach" then working with Cassidy may be exactly what you're looking for.

A Life-Changing Experience…read more I truly don't know where I would be today without Ms. La Toyia Conway Hampton and her incredible organization. During one of the most painful and challenging times in my life -- facing false allegations and going through a high-conflict divorce -- Ms. La Toyia stood by me with compassion, strength, and unwavering support. Even though I've always had a healthy and loving relationship with my children, I was put in a heartbreaking position that limited my time with them. I chose to voluntarily go through her program because I wanted to keep growing, stay strong, and prove my commitment -- not just to the system, but to myself. Ms. La Toyia helped me get through a difficult trial and guided me through powerful classes like parenting, anger management, sexual assault awareness, and personal development. She taught me communication skills and how to better handle toxic or high-conflict situations. She helped me sharpen tools I already had -- and gave me new ones that made me stronger, wiser, and more grounded. Her support carried me through one of the darkest tunnels of my life, and because of her, I was able to come out on the other side with clarity and hope. Ms. La Toyia, thank you for believing in me when everything felt uncertain. Your work matters -- and you make a lasting impact on lives, including mine. Forever grateful, Lauren Shinwari

This place has given me so much. When I first came to TLS I was totally unaware how truly broken I…read morewas and in need of an outlet and positive relationships with my fellow women. Ms.Latoyia is like the mom I never had and I'm super happy to have met her and ALL the staff here. Being consistent and honest with myself and others has broken me free from old mindsets and behaviors. In the beginning everything that I was going through seemed like the worst thing that could happen to me but it was really a blessing in disguise. Definitely a 10/10 and would recommend it to any man or woman with similar circumstances.

I highly recommend working with Janet. What a deeply moving experience…read more Janet's inquisitive approach, her compassion, patience and gentleness brought me closer to myself, helped me understand my triggers, and bring compassion to challenging internal dynamics. Through deeper self-understanding I am able to connect more meaningfully and authentically with my child. Working with Janet requires bravery to face internal harms and limiting beliefs. Together, we forged new and empowering approaches to being a parent and a human. With Janet, there is no quick-fix or parenting hack to make challenging problems go away, rather, there is transformation that takes place on a very deep level. Be ready! I am grateful for Janet's humor, groundedness, and for her ability to see and feel deeply alongside me as a thought partner.

It is really hard to put into words what this program has meant to me. I was such an overwhelmed…read moremom before this. I yelled a lot, but more than that I had lost my joy and I just felt like I was drowning in my life most of the time. Working with Janet this summer was like a warm hug. I had read all the parenting books you guys. I knew a lot of neuroscience and child development already. I had been trying as hard as I could to be a good mom for as long as I can remember. What I DIDN'T know was how to show myself compassion. What I didn't know was that I was never going to be able to do better until I felt better and my nervous system actually experienced safety on a regular basis. What I didn't know was how to care for myself like I was someone who mattered too. It took me a while to realize that these coaching sessions were actually Janet mothering me in such a beautiful and compassionate way. She was holding space for all the emotions and fears and hurt of my parenting journey without a shred of judgment. She helped me to believe that I make sense and that I'm already a good mom. She helped me to believe that my children are good too and that their most extreme struggles are simply part of their journey, not something to fear. She taught me to identify what my body was feeling and what I needed so that I could get to a place of safety and truly show up for my children with presence and empathy. It was such a journey with many ups and downs but I'm here to tell you that I'm building trust with my children every day now instead of tearing it down. I'm responding most of the time to my kids' tantrums & challenges in ways that I'm proud of. I truly didn't expect to get so much out of this parenting class and a few coaching sessions but it turned out to be one of the most meaningful experiences of my life.
