🗣️ What Parents Say
"My biggest obstacle with potty training was ME. My daughter was ready but I was not. Having Audra’s guidance and support was so pivotal in our potty training success. It’s not an easy thing to do, potty training. And to be honest, without Audra’s help, I might have thrown in the towel a few times. Everyone needs someone they can turn to when the going gets tough (or even celebrate the victories) and Audra was that person. Many many praises and thanks for her potty training expertise. Couldn’t have done it without her!" - Lindsay M., East Greenwich, Rhode Island
