Join us for the second of a three-part parenting series!

If you are in the midst of parenting a child under two years old, this interactive presentation is for you. Spend an evening with two seasoned early childhood educators, Emily Boucher and Amy Mockbee, who have parented and worked with young children themselves. Let’s get real about the joys and challenges of early childhood; learn how you can build the parent-child connection, foster learning, and make these years breezy, not stormy. Meet fellow parents, and give time and space to be perfectly imperfect parents. 

For our winter session, we will tackle the day-to-day work of parenting a thriving toddler, particularly as the colder months drag on. 

Topics of discussion will include:

  • engaging a toddler (with or without screens) so home life can feel positive 
  • creating space for growth - for parents and young children alike, through routines and approaches that make sense
  • considering how toddlers connect and socialize - what is expected, what is problematic, and how to face the common pitfalls

Our workshop offers:

  • Real-life advice, ideas & strategies
  • Time to thoughtfully consider what's happening with your little ones, in a group of people who are in the same stage of parenthood
  • Enjoy resources? We’ll share helpful children’s books, accessible parenting support & simple, doable strategies that work
  • Opportunities for your in-the-moment questions and discussion

Parenting is not meant to be done in isolation! So, let's do this together. Call your kindred toddler parent buddy, save the date, and make a plan to spend grown-up time together.  

Additionally, host school families from Barrow Street Nursery School should email info@parentsleague.org to register. No fee applies for host school families.

To ensure a personalized experience for all attendees, space is limited to 40 adults.
