Karen Phillip is a mother of 3 children and 3 step children. She has been a Family Counsellor for almost two decades assisting Parents manage their children's behaviors, sleep time problems and tantrums.
Karen is also a preschool teacher and has worked with children much of her life.
Like all parents, when Karen had her children she says she thought she knew about raising a child but found she knew little just like everyone else. She learnt along the way and found better ways to manage her children's behaviours. "I wish I had a book or manual when I left hospital, would have been much easier".
Through extensive study in her adult life, she has now become a respected authority on assisting Parents adjust their child's behaviors easily and without conflict.
Karen says "Most books about children and parenting are written by academics or self professed experts who either do not have their own children or have never actually raised their own children 24/7". As a mother I understand the difficulty in having your child distressed and screaming, I have written for parents who now want to get their Parent position back and remove the conflict from their home.
