Cleveland County Family YMCA Cleveland County Family YMCA

Our guest, Nicola Dawson, shares great advice on how to have your children set healthy goals for themselves and engage in personal development. Nicola has a deep background in education and is now the Family Director at the Dover Foundation YMCA. She discusses the benefits of goal setting with small children, as well as how those habits will relay into the adolescence and teen years. While although a challenge for most parents, goal setting and accountability leads to self-sufficient and responsible young people! 

We get to know Executive Director of the Dover Foundation YMCA, Mark Pritchett, and ask about his personal experiences in being a youth sports parent. Mark shares with us his perspective as a parent from the coach's eyes, being on the sidelines, being the director and what he would like all parents to hear!
