The Bernard L. Pacella, MD Parent Child Center

From a mother in the program for two and a half years:

"My experience at the Pacella Parent Child Center exceeded my hopes. One cannot overestimate the value of continuity for both mothers and children. I felt like I was “parented” myself as I negotiated the logistics and emotions of motherhood. Throughout my involvement in the groups, I have received validation, emotional support, a parenting resource and practical parenting tips. It has been especially helpful to have experts in the field know my child since infancy. I highly recommend the Pacella Parent Child Center for any mother who is seeking a deeper and richer experience than most parenting groups."

From a mother in the program for one year:

"The Parent Child groups at the Pacella Parent Child Center have completely changed my feelings about motherhood by providing my daughter and me with a place where we feel nurtured in the most caring way by complete professionals. Our mother-child dynamic went from major tantrums to learning how to deal with the outbursts to times of joy with my child that didn’t exist as readily before. I truly believe that the group has made a positive imprint on my daughter and me for the rest of our lives, and has revolutionized my experience as a mom, and for this I will be grateful."
