The Challenge: Addressing Tough Topics with Confidence
A Case Study
As a mom of a child between the ages of 5-8, Sarah was excited for her daughter to start attending playdates and sleepovers. However, she was also plagued by a series of unsettling questions: Does her child know about body safety? Will she call if she needs help? How do you really know how other parents supervise kids behind closed doors? Sarah was conflicted—she didn’t want to offend her friends by asking about body safety measures or scare her child. Compounding her concerns was the alarming statistic that 70% of child sexual abuse occurs between children, a statistic that created panic over playdates. Sarah needed a solution to educate her and her daughter on these critical issues without instilling fear. Sarah was scared and wanted to learn how to protect her kids. She contacted me and asked, "Do you have a Body Safety Toolbox?"
The Solution: Body Safety with the Right Tools
When Sarah discovered my Body Safety Education Tools, she found the perfect resource to address her concerns. "The toolbox" offered a comprehensive approach to child safety, consisting of two research-based books, two comprehensive online classes, and the option for private consultations to develop a personalized family safety plan.
Here’s how the body safety tools helped Sarah and her family:
Approachable Education Tools: From Fear to Confidence: How One Family Tackled Body Safety with the Right Tools.
Books: The kit included "I Said No! A Kid-to-Kid Guide to Keeping Private Parts Private" by Zack and Kimberly King and "Body Safety for Young Children: Empowering Caring Adults." Parents love these books and offer kid-friendly research-based information. They use clear, simple language to make the concept of body safety approachable and easy to understand.
Online Classes: The classes offered interactive lessons for both kids and parents. They were designed to be engaging and educational, demystifying the topic of body safety and taking parents and kids from fear to confidence.
