Meet your parent coach

Hi!

Iโ€™m Mary Ninemeier Watts

โญ About Mary

I was born and raised in the Cheese Capital of the world (Wisconsin). I have worked with children and families for the last 30 years as a Special Education Teacher. I loved working with the kids and so often thought, I wish I could help the parents. The students I worked with would act completely different at home than at school. I found that supporting parents and offering predictability across settings was a real benefit for the students.
