Hear What Families are Saying

“One of the most humbling and empowering lesson I learned from my Cancer journey was the power of community. It had previously been difficult got me to ask for help dealing with a serious illness broke my wall of reserve. Look at it this way: if you don’t ask for help, how will you find it? If you aren’t open to receiving, how will you grow and harness the power of support? Cut to motherhood. It’s tough. It’s really really tough on certain days. But I have no problem leaning on community and saying: I’m really not sure what I’m doing. I lead from heart, I allow my girls a lot of room to express and freestyle play but obviously there are times I need to lay down the law and rules of engagement. And if you have a toddler - or two - you will probably snort in recognition of how deviously defiant our angels can be. Cue Spark Wonder. The wonderful Mona is a god send right now as she offers online consultations to address all and any parenting techniques or issues which might crop up. We are dealing with anarchic bedtime rituals (or rather lack of structure and rituals) and Mona swooped in to offer simple principles that have already transformed our night time experience. Mona thank you for dropping into our lives. Every mama needs a calm, empathetic eye like yours and I would sincerely encourage anyone who feels adrift, overwhelmed, or simply need a bit of extra support and guidance to book an online session.”

“Working with Mona was life-changing for us as a family. After only 2 sessions, we were able to get our playroom reorganized to be functional and organized. My 2 and 3-year-old have not only been playing better individually, but they are playing better together. My favorite part is that they are able to clean up the playroom after each day without my assistance because everything has a particular place and its clear where it is. Mona also gave us tools and activities to help enrich playtime. I highly recommend consulting with Mona in order to create the optimal environment for the kids, which in return, creates an optimal environment for us as parents.”

“During COVID, my 15-month-old isn't getting too much stimulation with other kids, and I worry about the impact of this on his development. I booked a session with Spark-Wonder, and messaged a description of Faiz, his milestones, and my areas of concern. She took that info, conducted research prior, applied her expertise, and we hopped on a Zoom call. She asked me initial questions to ensure that Faiz is on track with key areas. She asked me to show her his play room to help her understand how he plays. After getting a full understanding of our routine and situation, she shared her recommendations regarding activities and any areas of what I should do differently. After the call, she sent me an informative recap of our conversation. Having an experienced professional provide tailored recommendations specific to my child was absolutely worth it. Highly recommend Spark-Wonder!”

“Mona help Aly go beyond what she was learning in school. She understood her strengths and areas to improve upon. She did this while playing with my daughter and never made it feel like work — Aly loves her “play dates” with Mona and the new games, books and materials that she would introduce. I learned new ways to help my daughter gain new skills through simple tasks that are easy to build into our busy lifestyles.”

We scheduled a call with Mona and it was the best thing we did for our son and ourselves. She helped create a bedtime routine that consisted of  4 simple steps. By the third day of following the routine he was sleeping in 30 mins from the start of the routine. Both my husband and I could easily follow the routine. 

We’d struggled with our first born son's sleep routine from the time he was little. We had a few methods in place but it always got thrown off by frequent travel.  It just got more and more difficult during quarantine with less structure etc. We were truly struggling. He's always been able to sleep long stretches but the challenge was getting him to fall asleep at a decent hour every night.  My frustration has lessened tremendously and I am forever grateful to Mona for her help with this! It's been amazing to have my nights back!

Aviraj used to love eating and trying new foods! But as he’s getting older he’s getting pickier and just overall more moody when it comes to food. I reached out to Mona and she told me how Spark Wonder could help. And let me tell you IT WORKED! She gave me such useful insight on Aviraj’s food sensitivities and how to tackle them. Now I’m able to get him to eat food that he’s refused to eat in the past. So thankful for Mona’s guidance and would definitely recommend her expertise to everyone I know!
