Hi! I’m
Dr. Nerissa Bauer
................
Parenthood is a journey. We want the best for our kids. We want to see them grow, thrive, be healthy and happy.
However, parenthood does not come with instructions.
Sometimes our children struggle and as parents we want to find ways to support them. Advice is everywhere and what sounds simple can be harder to put into action. Maybe you have multiple children or are trying to balance it all after a long day. Or perhaps your child has received a diagnosis and you are unsure if parenting rules apply or if you should "go easy".
It quickly can become overwhelming.
Let’s face it, we’re all human and we all wish sometimes for a re-do day. Even me!
I am a behavioral pediatrician, blogger and dreamer with a passion to help as many families as I can. I am also a wife and mother of two amazing children that I get to watch develop and become their own beautiful selves.
My philosophy is simple. Clear communication is paramount-whether in the clinic or in the home. When information exchange is two-way, collaborative and clear, everyone wins.
My resources, handouts and courses are designed to EDUCATE, ENGAGE & EMPOWER parents AND children no matter where they are on their journey together.
It is my sincere hope that my creativity, passion and love of creating practical resources for families to learn and grow together while having fun is helpful for your family too.
