| The Parenting Skills CDs and DVDs: |
|
On most of our CDs/DVDs you will hear a group of parents sharing their experiences with Noël Janis-Norton, the Director of The New Learning Centre and the originator of the "Calmer, Easier, Happier Parenting" Programme. The CDs/DVDs address parenting skills as well as topics which are important to parents. We suggest that you start with the foundation parenting skills CDs (in particular, 'Descriptive Praise') to begin to get familiar with our techniques before moving on to the parenting topics CDs and DVDs.
We also have some library CDs that we can lend you for a limited period (UK only). Please contact us if you would like to borrow a CD.
