How to Get Your Child to Say, Yes! I Can! & I Will! is Award Winning Finalist as Top Parenting Book for Families!

Have you ever wished YOUR child came with an instruction manual?
Have you ever looked down at your little angel, standing there in defiance or perhaps throwing an incredible fit, and wondered how this little person could leave you - an accomplished, educated adult - feeling completely lost in knowing what to do? Do you know how to create a consistent plan in building character while opening lines of communication, as well as infusing it all with compassion? My new book, How to Get Your Child to Say "Yes!", "I Can!" and "I Will!", shares wisdom that can make a dramatic difference in how you perceive and mold your child through their day-to-day routines. As a parent, you naturally want to instill positive values in your child, encouraging and helping them to become a well-adjusted, productive adult. You want to nurture them to develop:
* Good Character * Self Confidence * Respect * an Attitude of Responsibility * and a SOLID Foundation But how do you do that with a busy schedule that gets more hectic every year?   "Lesa came into our lives a few months after our son (8 years old) was diagnosed with ADHD. She has done a fantastic job working with him to ensure that he has a structured before and after school routine so that he can become reasonably self sufficient. James - Chicago, IL
Who I am I'm Lesa Day, and after nearly 20 years as a respected Nanny and Family Coach, I understand the problems parents face with raising their children to be responsible, respectful individuals - and still let them be kids along the way! Through the years, I have coached both individuals and families (and all types of personalities), as well as those with special talents and disabilities. In each setting, I've been able to help them step up to the plate, face the challenge ahead of them and succeed. I cheer them on while helping them focus on the positive, not the negative - honing in on their strengths rather than their weaknesses. "For our two children ages 6 and 9 Lesa created an environment of positive attitudes, a loving respect for others and worked with the children to do the best that they can while all the time allowing them to be children." Dave - Alpharetta, GA About the New Book My new book, How to Get Your Child to Say "Yes!", "I Can!" & "I Will!" will assist parents and caregivers to set up structure in your homes and life to nurture your children to be responsible, respectful individuals.
You will be able to incorporate this in your home in 10 DAYS or less!
This book will give you the Structure, the Guidance and the Techniques busy parents need to give children the proper foundation needed - that is lacking in so many of our young adults today. Many moms and dads have encouraged me to write this book - knowing that it can revolutionize the child-care and child-development industry! My structure, techniques and methods that I've been successfully using for nearly 20 years, are all right here in my new book, How to Get Your Child to Say "Yes!", "I Can!" & "I Will!" "Lesa helped us get a better understanding of how to motivate the children and work with them so that they met our family and their personal goals. She is a unique individual that helped create a sense of achievement and confidence within the children. I cannot imagine anyone understanding our kids better". Dad -- Manhattan, NY
One of the Most Successful Techniques ever used in the child-development field are now available, including - The 5 ½ C's. Do you know what the 5 ½ C's are and how to consistently incorporate them into your child's daily routine?

Building upon the 5 ½ C's, the book acts as a WORKBOOK for you to easily and immediately begin implementing the process! Not only do my system and techniques work (along with a lot of love and nurturing), but it sets the stage for leaving the right kind of LEGACY for your children.

During nearly 20 years of coaching, I've worked with many, many families who are concerned with - and doing something about - the Legacy they're leaving with their children. What Legacy are YOU leaving for your children? Is it one of Honor, Love, Responsibility, Respect & Self-Confidence? Isn't that kind of legacy the most important thing you can leave for your children? I think it's far more important than money and fame! She takes you step-by-step as you build character in your children. In addition, you are being taught to build a strong relationship between you and your child. You find yourself becoming more trustworthy, as your child believes in what you say.
