Children’s development programs are designed to support the physical, cognitive, social, and emotional growth of children. These programs can take many forms, including early childhood education, after-school programs, and sports and recreational activities.
The importance of children’s development programs cannot be overstated. During the early years of life, children’s brains rapidly develop, and experiences during this time can have a lasting impact on their future development and well-being. Child development programs can provide children with the support and stimulation they need to reach their full potential.
In addition to supporting children’s physical and cognitive development, human development concepts can also help to promote social and emotional skills, such as teamwork, communication, and problem-solving. These skills are essential for children as they grow and navigate their relationships with others.
A large number of children’s development specialists and consultants are helping parents, teachers, and caretakers to leave a great impact on children’s overall development. One prominent example comes from a husband-wife duo, Josette Luvmour and Ba Luvmour – professionally known as Luvmour & Luvmour.
Husband and wife duo, Luvmour and Luvmour, have been in business since 1984. They work in the fields of teaching, writing, consulting, public speaking, and human development. Their areas of expertise include Natural Learning Relationships, human development, relationship-based education, adult transformational learning, consciousness studies, and the reciprocal development of adults and children. The pair places a premium on the well-being of children and their parents and caretakers. The couple, who met each other in 1979, has been researching and investigating consciousness together. They developed a method for personal growth called Natural Learning Relationships, which involves understanding and evolving consciousness throughout life. They have utilized Natural Learning Relationships in their work as educators, including in experiential learning programs and schools, since the 1980s.
The husband, Ba Luvmour, started his career in the late 60s. In 1968, he became a 4th-grade teacher at the Philadelphia Public School System. He later worked as a director and master teacher at Ramayana Preschool in 1984. Ba Luvmour founded and served as a director and master teacher at Whispering Pines Charter School from 1995 to 1996. From 1995 to 1998, he coordinated the Teen and Toddler Program, emphasizing child development. Ba was EnCompass School’s executive director from 2000 to 2002. He taught education courses at Portland State University from 2008 to 2014. From 2011 to 2020, he taught at GITL. From 2013 until 2017, Ba co-founded Summa Institute and headed Summa Academy.
On the other hand, Josette Luvmour started her career as a community preschool co-director after traveling, studying, and raising her kid for years. She and her husband started Luvmour Consulting, LLC in 1984 to provide Natural Learning Relationship consultancy to children, families, and individuals. She coordinated the Teens and Toddlers program at Whole Family Vision with Ba Luvmour and Laura Huxley from 1995 to 1998. She developed experiential learning programs for Nevada City students and families. She also served as a co-founder and director of EnCompass Learning Center in Nevada City, California, from 1984 to 2003. In 2013 and 2014, she worked at Portland State University’s CEU department after teaching CEUs at the National College of Naturopathic Medicine from 2008 to 2010. Josette co-founded Summa Institute and directed Teacher Training, Professional Development, and Research Core from 2013 to 2017. Josette mentored and taught Natural Learning Relationships and the Evolution of Consciousness at the Graduate Institute for Transformative Learning from 2011 to 2019. She taught and mentored at Transformative Learning Foundation in 2019. Josette has mentored master’s students and taught affiliate faculty at Antioch University since 2016.
Luvmour & Luvmour have been serving society by providing consultancy in Natural Learning Relationships. There are a number of benefits to natural learning relationships, both for individuals and society as a whole. For individuals, natural learning relationships can help foster creativity, independence, and problem-solving skills and promote physical and emotional well-being. For society, natural learning relationships can help create a more connected and engaged community and promote environmental stewardship and sustainability. Josette & Ba Luvmour have left a prominent impact on the development of children, parents, educators, and society as a whole. In addition, the couple has authored several books to teach Natural Learning Programs to the masses.
