Testimonials
“I just did a package with Jarrod to help us deal with [my son’s]
tantrums. [He] would not get his way and he would go completely limp,
lie on the floor and not move, cry the whole time. If we ignored him he
would turn destructive to objects in the room. Turns out the best
strategy is talking to him about what is making him sad in a calm
voice—seems easy enough, but there are nuances to the approach and
Jarrod helped us come up with the strategies. Now [my son will] cry
briefly, expect my responsive inquiry, answer me, and move on. Huge
improvement! Jarrod has these reasonably priced packages that include
3–4 phone sessions and an intro, and he takes great notes and send you
all the bullets via email afterwards.”

“Your workshop? Awesome. I enjoyed it so much, your enthusiasm, the
flow of the information, the slides you included … What I loved the
most, though, was that it was like, documentation with heart. So many
workshops about documentation are dry … Yours, on the other hand, was
REAL. Lots of social-emotional stuff, for the kids AND the parents …
You’re a really good speaker.”
—Samantha, workshop attendee
“You have been all an ideal preschool teacher should be: loving,
patient, funny, consistent, and creative. Our family treasures you and
all you gave to [our son] and our community this year. Your gifts of
teaching love, trust and respect, as well as perseverance did not go
unnoticed and will help prepare [our son] for all that he will encounter
next year and beyond. Simply put, you are THE BEST!”
—Maya, preschool parent

He clearly knows the profession and discipline and he seems to have a
great deal of respect for it. His dedication to children is apparent.
The students were energized by Jarrod and they had an obvious respect
for him and his work. DVC is very fortunate to have Jarrod on staff. He
is an outstanding professional.”
