Parent coaching transfers control to families by teaching parents the same (effective) research-based strategies used by therapists and teachers. Recent research has pinpointed a number of benefits of ABA-based parent coaching including more positive interactions, reduced parental stress, and children gaining fluency and independence with communication, coping, and self-help skills. After completing parent training programs, caregivers apply trained skills throughout daily routines and children exhibit less challenging behavior (e.g., aggression). As a parent, you are your child’s first and most important teacher. Parent coaching is a cost-effective, proactive way to set your little one up for success at home, school, and in their community. The average annual cost of 1:1 therapy services for children with developmental delays ages 2-7 is $45,000. At a fraction of the cost, parent coaching teaches families the same strategies used in 1:1 ABA therapy while building caregiver confidence to teach throughout daily routines.
