    Realistic and encouraging
    I’m very protective of what voices I surround myself with because parenting and teaching littles can be SO overwhelming. Chantal has a way of helping us make the most of these magical years without burning ourselves to a crisp. Her themed preschool packs are where it’s at. Keep things simple and let Chantal lead the way through the preschool years.
  • Msmee11586
    Wonderful podcast!
    I’m a newer listener and already love the few episodes I have heard! Chantal is so knowledgeable with all things about little ones. I appreciate her patient and calming energy when she explains things. When I tune in, I gain a lot of knowledge to apply for my two kids. Her episodes are quick, insightful, and fun! I look forward to listening to more episodes from Chantal! ❤️
