“Just wanted to let you know what an amazing presentation you gave on Friday! You were truly operating in your gift…you were inspiring, funny, vulnerable, entertaining and practical all at the same time. Thank you for sharing the core of you. You could feel people in the room connecting – and it was AMAZING. It was a powerful time!!”

“It was a pleasure to hear you speak! Wonderful!”

“I really enjoyed hearing your thoughts today. A good reminder to all of us.”

“Thanks so much for meeting with me last week. I went into this thinking that you would give me some good, basic discipline tips, but I got a lot more than I expected. You gave me a new perspective on why I parent the way I do and how I can improve the lives of everyone in our family by changing a few things in my life. You really have a gift when it comes to understanding people and getting to the heart of a situation. You can count on me to sing your praises. I feel more optimistic and in control than I have in a long time! ”

“Max has turned into such a little sweetie & I’m no longer wanting to pull my hair out! Thanks to you! Again I can’t thank you enough! YOU ROCK!!!!”

“My husband an I have recently adopted 2 children that were very well behaved but we were having a few problems with the kids that we just couldn’t decide how to approach or agree on. I had a coaching session with Erin that just went great. After talking thru what was going on she had some very helpful tips and suggestions that we implemented right away and haven’t had any problems since. She just has a way of walking you thru the steps and building your confidence at the same time. When I the session was done I felt like half the battle was over. She has really helped my us and I know she can help you too.”

“I just had an AMAZING session with Erin, The Mommy Trainer What a wonderfully down to earth person. I learned so much about myself, and about my kids as well. Her advice was spot on, and I can’t wait to start living for PEACE rather then PERFECTION “

“The work that the “Mommy Trainer” does with our Women and Children Succeeding participants plays a critical role in our program. Erin has developed a great rapport with the participants. She is equipping them with tools needed to strengthen their parenting skills. We are very fortunate to have developed this partnership. The feedback from our participants has been very positive.”

“It was so nice working with the Mommy Trainer! In my line of work, it’s not often you get to tell refreshing stories and it’s even more rare finding a person with such passion for what they do! I could instantly tell Erin truly cared for each mom and she just wanted to help them become better. I’m not sure if my story did Erin justice but I sure hope she is around when it’s time for me to become a mom!”

“Erin Diffenderfer has a great idea here, as well as a great deal to offer parents who may be in search of advice on how best to support their children on the journey to adulthood.  I had the great pleasure of having her daughter Kaitlin in one of my high school senior AP English classes.  Kaitlin is bright, energetic, and highly motivated to give her absolute best in all she undertakes.  I believe that behind students like that there are usually parents who have discovered ways to have a profound impact on the lives of their children.  Erin is such a parent.  Actually, she is the model of that kind of parent.”

“Erin has been working with our young parents’ program.  She not only hears what the girls are saying, she listens to them.  She provides them with someone they can openly talk to.  She is helping them with not only the many challenges that parenthood brings, but also helping them realize and be the person they want to be.”

“Erin has been a great mentor to me; she has taught me to be confident and in control of my children.  My toddler was running our house at one point until Erin showed me how to take control and act like a parent.  I now have the confidence and “stern voice” that it takes to teach my children to listen, respect, and have good manners.  These are three key qualities that will help them grow into wonderful adults.”

” have known Erin for over 12 years and have first hand knowledge of her parenting expertise.  Over the years, Erin, has provided me with valuable, sensible parenting tools and advice.  She is the first person I turn to when in doubt, and it never fails, she helps me through the tough times and the good times.  I have also had the honor of watching Erin raise her two children and I am amazed with every passing year at how they both continue to grow and become independent.  They are both well rounded, well spoken, focused, driven, happy, and two of the brightest teens I know.  Erin truly is an expert in the parenting arena, so do yourself a favor and check her out, she is the real deal.”

“My mom is my best friend. Always has been, always will be.

Ever since I can remember, my mom has put her all into being a parent. Us kids were the most important part of her life, and she always made sure we knew it.

For mom, though, showing us she cared wasn’t about giving us whatever we wanted, it was about helping us learn how to be the best versions of ourselves so that we could go out and make an impact on the world one day. To me, that is what the job of being a parent really is, and my mom executed it beautifully.

I think the way my mom raised me, with a combination of affection and tough love, led to the close relationship we now have. We talk on the phone usually twice a day, and when we aren’t on the phone we are texting or emailing back and forth. Our relationship is so strong because of the way she raised me, and I am so grateful for her guidance.

One day, when I have a family, I plan on using my mom’s techniques from day one. She is truly an expert, and I am so honored to be able to call The Mommy Trainer my mom every day of my life.”
