Translating Toddlers
Part 1: Ages 18 - 36 months
Your sweet baby now has words, more moods, preferences, a strong will and perhaps enjoys pushing boundaries. Toddlers are magical little humans with the most raw, wondrous world view - no filter and lots of energy! Let's get decode their behavior by understanding what's biologically expected and equip you with some tools for confident, connected parenting

6 Week Parenting Journey
One and a half hour, weekly sessions with room for sharing your updates and questions before we dive into a new parenting topic. This experience is a hybrid class with the first and last class in-person so you can get to know your cohort with the middle classes virtual to make it easier to join and less pressure for childcare. If you are not local to Grass Valley, you can join virtually for all sessions.
​
Week 1 Meltdowns, Boundaries and Holding Space: Translating their behavior and understanding/supporting early emotional intelligence
​
Week 2 Supporting Transitions by Setting Expectations + Predictable Routines
​
Week 3 Community Play - sharing, apologies, aggressive behavior and parenting in public
​
Week 4 Benefits of Risky Play: Building Resilience + Confidence
​
Week 5 Cultivating Empathy + Gratitude (rather than forcing manners)
​
Week 6 Establishing Healthy Eating Habits: Picky Eaters

Toddlers are my favorite people. They ask us to question everything and see the world through the most wondrous lens! Reminding us to ask 'why not' and to remember our most playful spirits.
