Finding you was a great way to start the new year...

Parents "R" Talking is proud of the many testimonials we receive from our clients.
See what people are saying about Parents "R" Talking and Rebecca Kammerer.

Healthy Sleep Habits Call-In (Twin 3yr. old boys)"Rebecca was great in helping us understand the importance of a bedtime routine. Our 3 yr. old twins took it immediately. The entire bedtime routine has eliminated the screaming and cut down the over 3 hour process to under 90 minutes. We are very grateful for the advice we go from Rebecca."- Mike Lofberg, San Francisco, CA,  2/26/2013

Healthy Sleep Habits Call-In (4 1/2 week old)"I currently have a 4 ½ week old daughter Ella. Like most new parents we had many unanswered questions regarding healthy sleeping habits and many general questions regarding her overall well being. Ella had also developed reflux and had begun having difficulty and crying a lot when I was feeding her with a bottle. She was being breastfed and bottle fed. One of my friends sent me an email about Rebecca’s call in sessions regarding healthy sleeping habits. We called her to sign up for the session and she was immediately very helpful and asked me a bunch of questions regarding Ella’s sleeping, eating and reflux symptoms. Within a few hours she had sent me an email summarizing all of the points we discussed about Ella as well as attachments to sleep and feeding schedules. She called me the following day for the phone call in and spent almost an hour with me going over healthy sleep habits and general pointers. Rebecca told me that even though it is too early to start formal sleep training; it is not too early to start healthy sleep habits. The schedules she provides are meant to be guides which will take you from a newborn to three years of age and will alter and change as your child develops. Even though the call in was geared towards healthy sleeping habits Rebecca was able to offer other extremely helpful tips and advice on general parenting issues and she gave me some good pointers on how to deal with a reflux baby. Like most new parents who have a crying baby I kept wondering what I was doing wrong. Rebecca was very reassuring in letting me know that this is normal and that unfortunately with or without reflux sometimes there is nothing that can be done but to hold her and try to console her. We are all looking forward to working more with Rebecca."-Michelle M., Long Island, NY, 2/25/2013

A Broader Approach to Sleep Work (5 months old)"One of the things I liked best about  my experience  with Rebecca is that her focus wasn't solely on getting my son to 'sleep through the night'. There was a much more broad approach that would ultimately lead to him hopefully doing so when he was ready and gently easing him in that direction."Ashley Murray, Long Island, NY, 2/11/2013

Rebecca created a Healthy Sleep Habits Schedule for our 1 & 2 year old. Finding parentsrtalking was a great way to start the new year. Rebecca has been amazing and God sent from the first conversation we had. She provided us with hope, support and the tools to accomplish our sleep goals. There were noticeable differences and improvements within the first week of working with Rebecca and we could not be more grateful. I now have the option of going to bed at a decent time, because our children(ages 1 & 2) are now on an schedule and to me that is priceless. Rebecca is knowledgeable, understanding, supportive, patient and easy to work with. Our children also enjoyed meeting and spending time with her. It has been a pleasure working with Rebecca and parentsrtalking, because we are definitely talking about the great service we have received from start to finish. Thank you so much.Nadia M., Long Island, NY,1/24/2013
