Your baby is becoming a toddler-how exciting (and exhausting!). Don’t fear the toddler transition!

Join Early Childhood Matters to learn more about this period of dramatic child development. Learn more about your child’s rapidly developing brain, and find out what is behind the often unexpected challenges that may arise in toddlerhood (mealtime struggles, tantrums, hitting/biting, shyness and more). Practice positive discipline strategies that nurture connection, communication, and curiosity in your emerging toddler, while planting the seeds for emotional intelligence right from the start.

Week 1: Understand you child’s rapidly developing brain, and important tips to support this development through connection and presence.

Week 2: Learn how to support your child’s language development while building emotional intelligence.

Week 3: Learn how to encourage creativity and curiosity and find

out why it’s so important to start these patterns of interaction early!
