Testimonials from professionals and parents:

"I’ve seen such incredible results with the HANDLE approach. So many families are struggling to find answers, to help make their children’s lives easier and have hit a brick wall with mainstream medicine. HANDLE offers parents answers they didn’t know they were looking for. I continue to recommend this as a resource for families who feel like they’ve tried it all."

Lorelei B. Owner of Oxford Learning - Halifax, NS

"Because of my son’s program his tics have decreased and he is talking more! This process taught me that Nicholas' behaviour can have more to do with brain development than personality. It's helped me to see through another lens, with more compassion and patience." Simone S - Oakville, ON

"Heather was thorough during meetings and the info sheets given were very informative. When doing the activities consistently we saw a positive difference in our child. I feel like it has strengthened our relationship with our daughter. We have a better connection and more patience." Marisa - Stoney Creek, ON

"2 months after starting The Gentle Learning Connection program my 8-year-old was riding his bike without training wheels: We have tried to teach him for 2 years! While our concern was focusing in school, we now realise how all systems are connected!"

Brenda W - Hamilton, ON

"This was the best workshop ever! I am most excited to implement the new ideas for my mental health. The information was eye opening! My favourite thing was receiving tips on what I can do to lower and prevent stress."

Feedback from the Nova Scotia Community College Early Childhood Educators' Mental Health workshop

"I was heartbroken and tired of waiting for another specialist appointment to hopefully help my child. I learned what I CAN do immediately at home to help her begin to improve!"

Jennifer C - Burlington, ON

"To see the relief on a child's face that they are not "dumb" or "stupid" but have Irlen Syndrome that CAN be accommodated and managed is, hands down, the best feeling a teacher or parent can have!"

Deb M. Learning Resource Teacher - Niagara, ON

"3 weeks after starting HANDLE my 9-year-old's speech therapist asked what we had been doing since she noticed my daughter was speaking more clearly and fluently: We had speech therapy for 7 years prior without sudden change! My daughter also began swimming on her own the same week!"
