Parents Say About Us
The Montessori approach has helped us with our daughters development in many ways. She is more independent, resilient, and self directed than before – and she loves to help out at home. The RHK program was completed by my husband and we use it all the time with both our kids now – its great!!
Carolyne Yakase
Mother of Ariana (4yo)
I have been an educator with Montessori for many years now – the amount I learnt in the parenting program was amazing – I use it all the time with my young ones and even with the older ones as well. Too deadly.
