Let's Talk About Sleep, Toddler!
Single Session

Will my toddler ever sleep without my help?
Many parents find themselves asking this question as bedtime approaches. Helping children learn how to sleep independently can feel like a long, sometimes confusing and frustrating task, especially at a time when parents are tired too.
In this evening discussion we will chat about the sleep needs of toddlers and share some ideas on how parents can help their children begin their journey toward sleeping independently.

Toddlers & Tantrums: From Tears to Connect
Single Session
Children 1 to 3 Years old
Navigating toddler tantrums can feel like an emotional rollercoaster for both children and their caregivers.
This interactive session explores the “why” behind toddler behaviour, the brain science of self-regulation and how to shift from reaction to connection. Parents and caregivers will gain tools from the Conscious Discipline program, to foster emotional safety, teach calming strategies and guide children through big feelings with empathy and consistency, while building stronger and more secure relationships.
