Many parents struggle with discipline. We either feel like we're doing too much or too little depending on our child's behavior in that moment. Where is the balance point- when discipline feels 'just right'?

This workshop is designed to empower parents and caregivers by helping them recognize the profound capacities of their infants to self-determine the timing and sequencing of their movements. We will explore the various stages of motor development, from lying on their backs up into standing and walking. Participants will come away with new ways to observe and support their babies’ movements, along with an appreciation of how each and every stage of motor development is important in and of itself, and is foundational for the next stage.

How do we create a sense of inclusion and belonging for our children? How can we help them find their place in the world in a way that honors their dignity and also teaches them to honor and respect others? This world is diverse, and complicated and our children need our guidance, but it can often times be hard to even know where to start. In this workshop, expert and trained facilitor, Debbie Laurin, will walk you through how to take this important work of Inclusion and Belonging and use it in your home and with your children.

Come and see how awareness of your life and journey can awaken you to your children. This workshop provides a chance to experience how opening to your biography can further your understanding of your children and awaken more capacities as a parent.
