The Circle of Security ParentingTM program is based on decades of research about parent-child relationships. We will learn about our child's emotional needs, how to enhance safety & security in our relationship with our child, how to support their self-esteem, & explore challenges that we may face as parents/caregivers.
BC Council for Families developed My Tween & Me to provide parents & caregivers with the knowledge, tools & support they need during their child's transition to adolescence. We will explore how families can strengthen their relationships with their tweens (7-12 yrs old), enrich their parenting experience, practice effective communication & guidance strategies, & prepare their children for the teen years.
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.
Sibling relationships are often the longest lasting relationships in our lives. How do we, as parents and caregivers foster relationships that are strong and have lasting positive impact?
Join us as we explore: the dynamics of sibling hood, the role of grown-ups in navigating the rivalry, and strategies to reduce fighting and build their bond.
