Discipline problems have a gentler, more effective answer.
You love the child in your care, but the yelling, the power struggles, the meltdowns wear you down. Jessica Shields Flowers helps parents, teachers, and child care leaders bring order, respect, and connection back, using Conscious Discipline®.
South Carolina's first Conscious Discipline Certified Instructor. 30+ years in early childhood education. Trained directly by Becky Bailey, the method's creator.
What is Conscious Discipline?
Conscious Discipline® is a trauma-informed, brain-based approach to behavior. Instead of punishment or bribery, it teaches adults how to stay calm, teach children the skills they're missing, and build the kind of relationships that make real self-control possible.
Jessica has been teaching it since becoming South Carolina's first Certified Instructor, and she's now a Master Certified Trainer and the CD Certified Instructor for SC First Steps 4K.
