The Mentoring Moms program was created to come alongside and help equip Providence families who have children in Early Learners through Class One. Recently, Dr. Nell Bush joined us via a recorded video to discuss how to "Parent Without Power Struggles." Although  this lecture is geared towards families with young children, we believe that many of the points she makes are applicable to families with children of all ages. 

Dr. Nell Bush is a Child Development Specialist who speaks to parenting groups and conducts teacher-training workshops throughout North Texas. She has her doctorate in Child Development from the University of Texas at Austin, where she taught undergraduate family and marriage courses for several years. After moving to Dallas, she served as a parenting consultant at the Family Life Counseling Center. She also has served as an educational consultant for the children’s video series, “Boz the Bear”; and co-authored The Parenting Survival Guide. She has served on the Boards of ChildCareGroup and National Charity League, Inc. First and foremost she enjoys spending time with her husband, Shelby, and their four almost-grown children.
