Hi, I’m Darby—and I created this course for parents like you.
I grew up with learning differences, and I remember what it felt like to be misunderstood, overlooked, and lost in a system that didn’t know what to do with me.
My mom tried her best to advocate, but the process was overwhelming and confusing even for someone as smart and determined as she was.
That experience is what led me to become a special education teacher, district administrator, and now a parent coach. After 27 years in education (and hundreds of IEP meetings), I’ve seen firsthand what happens when parents feel unsure of their role and what’s possible when they show up confident and prepared.
You are the most important voice at the IEP table. You just need to know how to use it. That’s why I created IEP Jumpstart.
If you’ve ever felt like…
You’re “supposed” to know what’s going on, but no one’s explained it clearly
The school team is using jargon and acronyms that leave you more confused
You want to speak up but are afraid of saying the wrong thing
Your child’s needs are getting lost in a sea of paperwork and politics
You leave IEP meetings with more questions than answers…
Then this course is for you.
