You’ll hear about developmentally appropriate ways to interact with your infant, with a focus on activities for when you’re cooped up in the cold weather. We’ll also disuss which baby items are must-haves and which are nice-to-haves. And, of course, there will be plenty of time for Q & A.”

Responsive Parenting and the Value of a Flexible Routine (birth-6)
Attendees of this seminar will consider their child’s temperament and age in an effort to help inform their parenting. Emotionally responsive parents reflect their child’s feelings and set consistent limits that help their children feel safe. Including a flexible routine allows children to feel secure, while also being able to manage typical changes in their routine.
