| Kim has been
an educator for more than seventeen years. She has worked as an elementary
school teacher in the independent school sector. She currently is
the Assistant Director of Admissions and Director of Auxiliary Programs at her school, and has
the pleasure of working with and teaching teachers, assistants, students,
and parents. Kim is most proud of being a wife and mother of boy/girl
twins. Being an effective parent is Kim’s passion in life. She
says, “…every day I try to be mindful of each decision
I make…”. Besides Kim’s experiential background,
she holds her Bachelor’s degree, her Multiple Subject Teaching
Credential, a Masters degree in Education, and is a Certified Parent
Educator. Kim is Co-Director of Empowered Parenting, which offers
courses, workshops, and one on one coaching to parents, teachers,
grandparents, healthcare workers, counselors, and anyone who relates
to children. |
Melanie,
a certified parent educator, is the mother of three boys. She is dedicated
to educating others with the RCB tools, she and her husband, consistently
apply which makes parenting easier, more effective, and far more enjoyable.
Prior to becoming a wife, mother, and educator, Melanie pursued a
career in law, and worked at the Los Angeles County Deputy District
Attorneys office for approximately ten years. As a deputy district
attorney, she worked in the juvenile system, where she saw first hand
the direction children took when exposed to ineffective communication
within the home. It was this experience, combined with having children
of her own, that convinced her to join together with Co-Director,
Kim DeMarchi, to start Empowered Parenting, to teach parents to empower
themselves, and empower their children. |
