This course is for parents, grandparents, teachers, healthcare professionals, daycare providers, preschool providers, foster parents, and anyone who works with children. The primary focus of RCB is that a misbehaving child is a child trying to communicate a need. If you can identify which need is not being met, then you can ‘redirect’ your child to a more appropriate way of communicating, and therefore, their behavior.
Parenting is extremely challenging. Given effective strategies for nurturing a parent/child relationship, parenting is a lot more enjoyable. More than communication training, the Redirecting Children’s Behavior Course contains over 100 parenting concepts, methods, and tools for improving behavior while enhancing your child’s self-esteem.
You will learn to:
- Feel more encouraged with your parenting skills
- Resolve conflicts cooperatively, peacefully, and respectfully
- Guide and teach children to solve their own problems
- Assist children in becoming more independent, responsible, confident, and cooperative
- Replace negative messages with more positive ones
- Reduce stress at home
- Create more respect and cooperation with your partner
- Create more time for yourself
When you attend the RCB course, you receive:
- 15 hours of classroom instruction

The course is held over a 3 month period with three 4-5 hour courses/month to complete the 15 hours total. This period of time allows you to practice and master the concepts and techniques during the weeks. The weekly challenges and successes that you experience is shared in our supportive classes.
The cost of the RCB course is $299 per person and $500 per parenting couple and includes all materials that are listed above. If a facility or school would like to host a class series, a fee may be negotiated. Please email Suzette for more information.
