The Circle of Security Parenting™ program is based on decades of research about how parent-child relationships can be supported & strengthened.
In this 8-week series, we will explore how to
understand your child's emotional needs
help them manage their emotions
strengthen their self esteem
honour your innate wisdom & desire for your child to be secure
Navigating sleep in the first months after baby has arrived, and into the early years of childhood can be a challenge for caregivers. Questions surrounding what is “normal” sleep for kids, why does my baby keep waking up at night, how do I avoid the bedtime protests, is enough to keep caregivers up at night.
In this workshop geared towards caregivers of children 0-5 years of age, we will build understanding around typical sleep patterns, challenges in infancy, bedtime struggles in early childhood, and strategies to encourage better sleep for little ones.
Join us online for our Online Storytime with songs, stories, felt stories, puppets and easy art activities. Every Tuesday and Thursday from 5:30-6pm

Workshop: Tuning into Temperament: Monday May 30th @ 10am
Every child has their own unique temperament. Learning how to tune into our child’s personality helps us to work with their specific traits and strengths, rather than in opposition to them. How do we support our “spirited and active” children with organizing their feelings? How do we create a sense of safety for our “cautious” little ones in new situations? Join us as we learn how our personality interplays with that of our child’s, and explore strategies in supporting their unique way of being.
Join us for Online Storytime throughout the month of June, filled with songs, puppets, felt stories and easy art activities!
As parents and guardians, we can worry about keeping our children safe - whether that's from scrapes and bruises or hurt feelings. But what about protection from unsafe relationships and abuse? Body safety education can play a role in empowering children with preventative skills. We can teach our little ones to seek help or self-advocate if they feel unsafe or experience abuse.
In this foundational workshop, we will learn how to begin or continue practicing healthy boundaries, consent, and body safety. We will cover how adults can model safe relationships, pass along healthy body messages, and teach bodily autonomy. In this way, parents and guardians can create a home environment where there is an understanding of consent and a respect for the boundaries of self and others.
Join us as we explore how to navigate tantrums, meltdowns and outbursts, and how we can stay connected to our little ones through their big feelings. Together we will learn why children have tantrums, what is taking place developmentally, what happens in the brain, and what are they communicating through their behaviour. We will look at practical strategies of how to provide connection and support for our children (and for ourselves) during these challenging moments.
Join us for our Online Storytime throughout July, every Tuesday and Thursday from 5:30-6pm.
Whether it's leaving the playground or adjusting to new family dynamics, all change is big for a little one. Join us in our free virtual workshop in which we'll explore how best to support our children through day-to-day transitions and bigger changes.
