I first met Michelle Helm on October 11, 2002. I had came home from the hospital with my first-born son. I was like a deer in the headlights with no clue whatsoever on how to sustain the life of an infant, and Michelle made everything wonderful. By the time I had completed my time with her I had given my baby his first bath, put him on a great feeding schedule, and had him swaddled and sleeping peacefully. Four kids and six years later, I found out that I was expecting twins. The thought of four kids ages seven, five, four, and three plus twin newborns was a bit daunting, so I called Michelle again. She literally was a godsend. I don't know what I would have done without her. In the midst of complete and utter chaos she brought a peace to our home. She helped me put the twins on a perfect eat, wake, sleep schedule throughout the day. Because of their perfect life during the day, they were happy, sweet, and healthy and sleeping through the night at six weeks old. When I would tell this to people who inquired about my little twins, they were astonished. Michelle became our parenting expert and we would talk a lot about family and parenting, and the best way to manage a large family with children so close together in age. Michelle has been with me throughout milestones with my kids. Her knowledge of children and family life was a treasured gift. She has had a wealth of knowledge helping me with my older kids and giving me discipline tips. My three-year-old had a very strong-willed personality. Michelle coached me through showing me how to be consistent and kind and she shined a great light on my daughters personality and showed me that her temper and frustration were actually her need for control, which then helped me to parent her successfully. If every family could have a little “Michelle Wisdom” on a regular basis, the world would be a happier place!
