From soothing a fussy baby to supporting healthy sleep and joyful play, your everyday interactions shape your baby’s growing brain in powerful ways. Join Peace at Home Parenting expert, JoAnn Robinson, to explore how your presence, calm, and connection support your infant or toddler’s development—and why those early moments matter more than you think.
This workshop will give you practical tools to help your child eat, sleep, and play with more ease—while building the foundation for emotional security, learning, and resilience that lasts a lifetime. You’ll also learn how to respond to fussiness with confidence, manage your own stress, and create the kind of loving, safe environment that young brains need most.
After this workshop you will be able to:
- Understand how your baby’s brain develops through daily routines and emotional connections.
- Support your child’s natural rhythms for eating, sleeping, and playing.
- Respond effectively to fussiness while also caring for your own wellbeing.
- Create nurturing routines that build trust and promote lifelong resilience.
