THE ART OF LISTENING TO CHILDREN
​​​
Listening to a child in your life is one of the most
important things
you can do as a caring adult in the life
of a child!
LISTENING, truly listening to a child, send them
a powerful message! A message that says:
​​
YOU CARE!
​​​
YOU ARE HERE FOR THEM!
​​
THEY MATTER!
​​
THEIR WORDS MATTER!
​​
THEIR FEELINGS MATTER!

WHAT PEOPLE SAY ABOUT SHARON:​
​​​
Parenting Class:
​
Sharon has a wonderful way of mixing her presentation to include discussion, sharing, individual exercises and lecture which keeps the class upbeat, personal, educational and interesting.
As a parent with experience as a parent educator it has been valuable
to re-visit known concepts, to learn new perspectives, and to take
the time to re-focus on my own parenting.
Sharon's gentle voice and accepting manner keep all the members
of the class comfortable sharing personal issues and eager to ask questions.

Sharon Wikoff
is a beautiful kind soul and an effective, nurturing, creatively aware teacher for my daughter Angelina!! I highly recommend her piano teaching and art classes because my daughter has been growing and expanding in her heart, mind and skills from both.
Sharon is patient, kind, loving and creates a very nurturing environment that is palpable whether in person or during online lessons. My daughter looks forward to all her moments with Sharon.
Sharon is a stellar human being and we are happy she's a part of our lives!
