Parenting Through The Toddler Years

Parenting Through The Toddler Years – The first three years of life are when your baby’s brain develops the most. In these early years, parents have a profound opportunity to nurture their child’s cognitive, social, and emotional development through connected and responsible parenting. This workshop is designed to help parents of young children with an overview of their child’s rapidly developing brain, an overview of typical developmental milestones, and guidelines for setting developmentally appropriate expectations (“When will my child be old enough to know how to share her toys?” “Why does my daughter run away when I tell her to sit down?” ?”). We will use evidence-based positive discipline strategies to deal with challenging infant behaviors and set appropriate boundaries, while maintaining a strong bond with your child throughout the child’s life.

As babies gain new abilities and begin to desire more independence, they may also exhibit challenging behaviors—such as tantrums, uncooperativeness, hitting, and biting—that can be confusing.

Ways Toddlers Show Their Love

“I took Rebecca Walsh’s parenting class for 18-36 month olds. It was invaluable and I learned a lot. I appreciated understanding what was going on in my son’s developing brain and learning different strategies—both prevention and response. I have seen a change in our relationship when we use these strategies at home. I highly recommend this class to any parent/caregiver of a young child. Thank you for this opportunity!”
