About the Course

Welcome!

I am so glad you here! My name is Kristine Mastronardi and I am so excited to share this journey with you and to teach you everything I have learned about RDI as a parent of an autistic child and as a RDI Consultant.


Guiding 101 is an on demand course that will give you an introduction to guiding and RDI. Learn how you can be a guide to your child, not matter what age. Learn how you can impact your child's mental and neural development so they can obtain the quality of life they deserve: autonomy, relatedness and well being.


Guiding 101 consists of 7 modules. In addition you will have access to a Guiding Journal PDF where you will find content from the Video Modules in addition to assignments that coincide with the material.


As you watch the modules, follow along in your Guiding Journal and be sure to complete the assignments to get the most out of the course.  


If I can do it, YOU can do it! Let's go!
