Is bedtime a battle in your house? You’re not alone. From stalling, tantrums, and night wakings in toddlers to worries and fears, anxiety, nightmares, and late-night screen habits in school-aged kids, sleep problems are among the most common—and exhausting—challenges parents face.

Join Lisa Meltzer, PhD for this live, interactive workshop where she’ll take the stress out of bedtime and help you better understand your child’s sleep. You’ll learn what healthy sleep really looks like, what might be getting in the way of restful nights, and how to create routines that work for your family.

Whether your preschooler still needs a nap or your 8-year-old can’t fall asleep without you, we’ll offer clear, evidence-based tools that make bedtime smoother and mornings a whole lot easier.

Quick Tip

Becoming a Parent – Model the Behavior You Want

Expert

Peace at Home Parenting Expert Tanika Eaves Tanika Eaves,PhD, LCSW, IMH-E®

Challenges & Solutions

We all want our children to be calm, kind, and patient. But what’s the best way to influence their behavior?

Start by showing them what that looks like. Kids learn more from what we do than what we say. When we take a breath instead of snapping, or admit when we mess up, they notice. And here’s the bonus! It doesn’t just help them.

Over time, modeling the behavior you want to see in your child can actually change you, too. “Sometimes the best way to teach your child is to practice becoming the person you want them to be.”

Listen in on this one-minute video as Peace at Home expert Tanika Eaves, PhD, LCSW, IMH-E, shares how to model the behavior we want to see in our children.

Looking for more tips like this? Try our Search Tool, Resource Guides, or email Solutions@Peaceathomeparenting.com, and we’ll connect you with proven solutions that produce positive results.
