"It was overwhelming for me to start but very helpful and comforting to know we have a wonderful plan in place for our kid. They looked forward to meeting Hieba all week and can’t wait to chat with her again. Hieba was wonderful and I feel so blessed to be beginning this journey!"

"I have more awareness about handling situations. I was at the breaking point when I came to Manatee and Hieba has really helped me be more present. An example is writing a check-list, and writing down when the kids do something good or bad, it helps to visualize it. The kids understand when they get rewards like going to 5 Below or reasons I'm taking away the phone."
