Dr. Darlene Davis
Darlene is the Founder of Parents Zone, LLC, a virtual coaching support service for parents and caregivers. Parents Zone firmly believes that parents should not have to choose between accessing support services and managing their busy, hectic parenting schedules. Their virtual parenting coaches use emotional support services to remove barriers encountered when seeking out parenting resources and support. Because no parent receives a parenting manual when leaving the hospital, we remind our parents that "perfect parents" do not exist and "perfect parenting" is not a real thing.
