- Respond to your child's behaviors with empathy instead of frustration
- Connect with your child on a deeper level
- Navigate challenging moments with calm confidence, knowing you have a toolkit of effective techniques at your fingertips
- Rediscover joy in your family life
- Watch your other children and your marriage flourish as balance is restored to your home
This isn't just a dream – it's the reality our members are living every day. With the right support, education, and community, you can transform your family's story from one of struggle to one of resilience and joy.

Meet Dr. Melody Aguayo - Your Guide to Trauma-Informed Parenting
Hey there! I'm Dr. Melody Aguayo, and years ago, I was exactly where you are now - an overwhelmed adoptive parent, desperately seeking answers and support for my child with complex needs.
My journey began when I adopted my son and quickly realized that traditional parenting advice just wasn't cutting it. I felt unheard and invalidated by professionals who didn't understand our unique challenges. Sound familiar?
That experience lit a fire in me. I was determined to become the support I wished I'd had. So, I dove headfirst into the world of developmental trauma, pursuing my doctorate in psychology and dedicating my career to understanding and supporting families like ours.
Today, I'm not just a coach - I'm a fellow traveler on this complex parenting journey.
I've lived through the daily struggles you're facing:
- The constant school phone calls
- The heart-wrenching IEP meetings
- The feeling of walking on eggshells in your own home
- The strain on your marriage and other relationships
- The guilt, the exhaustion, the moments of despair
But I've also discovered the immense joy and growth that can come from this journey when you have the right support and strategies.
That's why I created The Real Child Community. I wanted to provide a community where parents like us can find understanding, gain practical tools, and rediscover the joy in our parenting journey - all guided by someone who's been in the trenches.
My approach combines:
- Extensive professional training in developmental trauma
- Personal experience as an adoptive parent
- A deep commitment to empowering and supporting families
I can't wait to meet you inside The Real Child Community and be part of your family's transformation story!

I'm already stretched thin financially. Can I really afford this?
We understand that raising a child with complex needs can be financially challenging. That's why we've priced The Real Child Community to be accessible to as many families as possible. Consider the cost of individual coaching sessions or specialized workshops - our membership provides ongoing support and resources at a fraction of that cost. Plus, with our 30-day money-back guarantee, you can try it risk-free.
I'm overwhelmed as it is. How much time will this program require?
The Real Child Community is designed to fit into your busy life. While we encourage regular engagement for best results, you can participate as your schedule allows. Our resources are available 24/7, and you can catch up on trainings at your convenience. Many members find that the time invested actually saves them time in the long run by providing effective strategies that reduce daily struggles.
I've tried other programs before without success. How is this different?
Unlike one-size-fits-all parenting programs, The Real Child Community is specifically tailored for families dealing with developmental trauma. Dr. Melody combines professional expertise with personal experience as an adoptive parent. The ongoing nature of our program, with regular expert support and a community of peers, sets us apart from one-off courses or workshops.
I'm not sure I'm ready for this. What if I'm not at the right level?
Whether you're new to trauma-informed parenting or have been on this journey for years, The Real Child Community meets you where you are. Our content is designed to be accessible to beginners while providing depth for more experienced parents. The community aspect means you'll find support no matter where you are in your journey.
How much personal attention will I receive?
While The Real Child Community is a group program, there are multiple opportunities for personalized support. These include weekly Q&A sessions, and bi-monthly support calls. Plus, our private Facebook group allows for daily interaction with Dr. Melody and other members.
What if I sign up and then don't have the energy to fully participate?
We understand that parenting children with complex needs can be exhausting. That's why all our live sessions are recorded and resources are available on-demand. You can engage with the material when it works best for you. Many members find that the support and strategies they gain actually increase their energy and capacity over time.
Is this just for adoptive parents, or can foster parents join too?
The Real Child Community is open to all parents and caregivers of children who have experienced developmental trauma. This includes adoptive parents, foster parents, kinship caregivers, and biological parents of children who have experienced early trauma.
What if it doesn't work for my family?
Every family is unique, which is why we offer a 30-day money-back guarantee. If you find that The Real Child Community isn't the right fit for your family after giving it a fair try, we'll refund your investment, no questions asked.
