About this Workshop

Little kids, big feelings—toddlers experience emotions faster than their developing brains can manage. This often leads to meltdowns and challenging behaviors, leaving parents unsure how to respond. Your calm energy is the key to helping your child feel safe and settle their overwhelmed emotions.

Join Ruth Freeman, LCSW, Founder of Peace at Home Parenting, along with child development experts JoAnn Robinson, PhD, and Cora Megan D’Allesandro, MA, IMH-E, for an engaging and practical conversation. Uncover effective strategies to become your child’s emotions coach and address behaviors with confidence.

Learn the importance of routines, the power of playfulness, and how to approach common parenting challenges like discipline, screen time, and mealtime struggles. Gain expert advice and actionable tools to create more connection and cooperation during these pivotal toddler years.
