Parenting Class
8-week, certificate class focusing on child development, (ages and stages) effective communication styles, discipline and child safety. The class is taught from an authoritative parenting model including using empathy while being firm and fair, consistent and attentive. Content is consistent with the American Academy of Pediatrics and publications from Elaine Mazlish and Adele Farber on using empathy with children. Turning a view of "misbehavior" into a view of having "unmet need's." Parents examine the way they were parented to break through negative patterns and replace with more effective ones.
