Parenting During Early Childhood
About
A Parent Workshop presented by Karen YoungEarly childhood is a time of immense development. Most of the time it will be a source of pure, full-bodied joy. But as magical as it can be, it can also be tough at times, when feelings and behaviour swell big enough to own a room.
Thankfully, remarkable advances in neuroscience have shone a bright light on why children do what they do and what their growing brains need to thrive. This has helped to make sense of behaviour that often makes no sense at all, and given us glowing signposts for what they need from you, their parents, to strengthen the foundations for healthy development. This presentation is for anyone who lives or works with young children.
Participants will learn:
•Understanding your child’s development needs and what they need from you.
•Preparing your child for the transition to school.
•Practical strategies to support children through separation anxiety.
•How to respond to big feelings and behaviour, and repair after rupture.
•Common parenting struggles in early childhood such as peer/sibling clashes, bedtime and screentime.
