Let's Workshop

One of Yasmin’s favorite ways to share information and empower caregivers is through a mix of simple visuals, interactive questions, and curated resources. She is smart, engaging, and approachable and this is reflected in her workshops. Participants should expect to walk away with both a stronger understanding of the topic and strategies to take home and try right away. There is always plenty of time at the end for questions since every family comes with their own unique experiences and circumstances.

What Families are Saying

Thanks to the guidance and support of Yasmin and the workshop she lead, my husband and I feel like we are back on track with our toddler.  We couldn’t have done it without her!

Last night was so great...I did make sure to have that special connection time with both little kids - and it made my extraction to go to work SO much easier.

I really feel like you reframed so much of the struggle for me!

Karen W.

My partner and I both feel completely empowered and inspired.

Yasmin empowered us as parents and made us feel like we could guide our toddler through this phase without ripping our own hair out.

Toddlers suck. Yasmin makes it less sucky.
