I have two daughters, aged 2.5 and 5.5, and I often feel like there should be some kind of instruction manual for parents. The guidance provided by Maskit through the Parenting Lab really addresses that gap. It is engaging, practical, and offers useful tools for handling everyday challenges with kids. She also brings up topics that feel very relevant, things I am sure most parents deal with at some point.

For example, the topic of rewards and punishments really touched on something I am currently struggling with, and I appreciated the way Maskit approached it with clarity, empathy, and a down to earth perspective.

This workshop is a thoughtful guide to parenting, grounded in positive guidance and strong connection, with tools and examples that are easy to apply at home.

One of my biggest takeaways was realizing that unwanted behaviors are just the tip of the iceberg—real change starts with strengthening our connection as a family.

We’ve already seen some transformation. We set up systems around things that used to cause daily friction—like cleaning up after dinner and breakfast choices—and we’ve seen real changes in behavior. One small but powerful example: instead of arguing every morning about cereal, we brought it to a family meeting and agreed on two cereal days per week. No more conflict.

I’m more confident now, and this series helped me reflect on what I was already doing while offering new ideas that truly work. I’d strongly encourage anyone to join, whether you’re new to this or have already read a lot about parenting—the hands-on experience and practical tips make a real difference.

The workshop series was thought-provoking, illuminating, and structured in a clear and effective manner.

I was surprised by how quickly I saw positive changes after applying the strategies. I’m more aware of my reactions and how they affect my children, and I’m responding with greater mindfulness and calm.

This series helped me better understand my children’s perspective and reflect more deeply on my parenting.

This workshop offered a comprehensive toolkit for navigating parenting challenges with confidence and empathy. Maskit has a deep understanding of child development. Her place feels like a very safe and homey environment, and participants were encouraged to ask questions, share their own experiences, and engage in group discussions.

The tools provided have already proven effective in my daily interactions with my children. I highly recommend it to all parents! 

Edith, mother of three (ages 6, 4, 2)

Maskit has such wisdom and knowledge when it comes to parenting. I applied the techniques she taught, and my kids have been calmer and more connected to me. I highly recommend working with her, it will make your life simply more enjoyable.

Thanks for your excellent workshop. I was happy to have the helpful reminders from the previous workshop and your new insight into other families' familiar issues. 

I would love to attend more of your workshops in the future!

My favorite activity was getting to know one person. It was fun. I would like to learn more about time management and I know it is in the plan, so I am interested in coming for more workshops.
