Daytime Parenting Class

1:30PM-2:30pm Parent Learn & Grow SESSIONS

What is the Daytime Parenting Class?
- The Daytime Parenting Class is a hands-on, interactive session designed for parents who want to embrace gentle parenting with firm boundaries. This class provides practical, real-world strategies to foster respect, cooperation, and emotional regulation—without power struggles or permissiveness.
- With years of experience working with hundreds of children, I’ve refined an approach that sets firm boundaries while fostering deep connection, leading to smooth transitions, fewer behavior challenges, and stronger parent-child relationships. I’ve never had behavioral issues in my classrooms, and this class will teach you how to implement the same strategies at home.
- Parents will also learn seasonally relevant skills that rotate throughout the year, such as:
  ✔️ Managing big emotions through co-regulation
  ✔️ Setting boundaries that actually work
  ✔️ Encouraging independence without resistance
  ✔️ Preparing for major transitions (starting school, adding a sibling, etc.)
  ✔️ Building structure in daily routines without rigidity
Who is it for?
- 👨‍👩‍👦 Parents and caregivers who want to set boundaries with confidence while keeping a strong, connected relationship.
  👶 Parents with children 5 and under who want to attend with their child (max 2 children per session).
  📝 Parents who want a judgment-free space to learn, practice, and ask questions about real-life parenting challenges.
- Each session blends discussion, interactive exercises, and real-time coaching, so you leave with strategies you can implement immediately at home.
