Don’t miss the next parent course!

We’re not currently enrolling parents but you can sign up for the waitlist so you don’t miss it when we run it again.

You may be feeling worried about when your baby will roll (or crawl, or walk!), how to help them sleep better at night, and what to do to make nap time, mealtime, and transitions less difficult.

Are they babbling enough? Eating enough? Sleeping enough? Playing with the “right” toys? Get enough of my attention? Playing on their own enough?

Will the pandemic impact their social skills? Language skills? Learning skills?

And underneath those questions are often two broader ones: "Is my baby ok?", and

"AM I DOING ENOUGH TO HELP MY BABY REACH THEIR FULL POTENTIAL?"

In other words, you may be asking,

“ARE WE DOING THIS RIGHT, OR ARE WE ROYALLY MESSING OUR KID UP?”

Let’s bring you to a place where your answer to those questions are “YES! We feel confident about helping them reach their full potential” and “NO we’re not messing this up. We’re doing pretty well!”

The goals are to give you:

🦋 reassurance,

🦋 knowledge,

🦋 strategies,

🦋 empowerment, and

🦋 community.


You ARE enough, and your baby has an amazing ability to do what they do when they are ready.

Are you ready to explore development and feel more confidence in your baby's development?

Do you want to know what to DO to support their motor, cognitive, sleep, feeding, and social development?

If so, I am excited to welcome you.

WHAT IS THE INFANT DEVELOPMENT CIRCLE?

It is a transformation in the way you support your baby’s development.

It resolves the uncertainty you have about whether your baby is doing what they “should” be doing, and whether you’re doing what you ought to be doing to support them.

———


🦋 LEARN EVIDENCE-BASED PERSPECTIVES AND STRATEGIES TO SUPPORT DEVELOPMENT.

🦋 GROW CURIOSITY WHILE REDUCING WORRY.

🦋 CONNECT WITH OTHER PARENTS.

IF YOU ARE A PARENT WHO IS FEELING OVERWHELMED AND UNSUPPORTED ABOUT:

  • how to promote your baby’s development and are wondering who to ask for answers?

  • what activities and toys support your baby's development?

  • the conflicting information about solid foods, sleep, developmental activities, and how to parent in a connected way?

  • the isolation and lack of connection with other parents?

    …the Infant Development Circle provides you with information, reassurance, and validation.

    The Infant Development Circle is:

  • a multi-week online series of information sessions and virtual connection-based meet-ups for parents of babies birth to 3 years old.

  • a group with evidence-based strategies and perspectives that support you in raising your baby and helping them develop

  • an opportunity to connect in a safe, and supportive environment online with other parents with babies at about the same stage of development.

  • an online self-paced learning hub that gives you resources that will continue to support the way you parent well beyond this current stage of development.

WE WILL EXPLORE MILESTONES, STRATEGIES, AND PERSPECTIVES ON:

  • gross motor development and motor building activities

  • fine motor development and toys

  • sleep development and how to parent through the sleepless nights

  • cognitive development, play, and learning

  • sensory processing and brain development

  • early communication

  • feeding and mealtimes

YOU ARE JUST WEEKS AWAY FROM FEELING MORE RELAXED AND CONFIDENT ABOUT TRUSTING YOUR BABY’S DEVELOPMENT AND HOW TO SUPPORT IT.

You enjoy watching your baby grow and develop.

You want to help your baby.

This group helps you know how.

What the multi-week program includes:

  • Weekly live sessions for asking questions, sharing stories, exploring perspectives, and talking about real strategies that make parenting through this amazing stage easier (or at least a bit more fascinating!). (These are recorded in case you can’t attend live).

  • Videos with information and perspectives on one developmental theme per week.

  • Resources and handouts available for each week of the series.

  • Exclusive fees for working one-on-one with me for three months.

  • Interviews with other experts in fields that support mothers and babies.

IMAGINE BEING PART OF AN ONLINE COMMUNITY OF PARENTS WITH SHARED EXPERIENCES WHO CAN RELATE TO YOUR WORRIES AND HOPES.

Parenting is hard. It can feel isolating. And you may have lots of questions about how to support your baby’s development. You may worry about whether you should be doing it differently, or whether what you’re doing is “good enough”.

Having a safe space to share, support each other, and talk about strategies that help parents navigate these turbulent times is what the Infant Development Circle is all about.

This online series is offered a few times a year and provides a supportive and informative online space for parents of babies from birth to 3 years.

With specific themes each week, and live sessions to connect, share, and learn, the Infant Development Circle helps you move from concern to curiosity about your baby’s development.

WHAT INFORMATION DO WE COVER?

(Here’s the itinerary for those with babies 0 to 6 months…)

Each group’s itinerary varies, and is dependent on age and needs of parents in the group.

  • WEEK 1: GROSS MOTOR

    Learn about how big motor movements develop, and how to support tummy time, rolling, crawling, and more.

  • WEEK 2: FINE MOTOR

    Explore how the senses (e.g. seeing and feeling) supports grasp, eye hand coordination, and play.

  • WEEK 3: SLEEP

    Learn about brain development, sleep cycles, sleep “regressions”, and alternatives to sleep training.

  • WEEK 4: FEEDING & MEALS

    We’ll explore introducing solids, baby-led weaning, picky eating, expectations, and avoiding distracted mealtimes.

  • WEEK 5: PLAY & TOYS

    Learn about ways to encourage cause and effect, baby-led play, and your own playfulness for social-emotional development

  • WEEK 6: HEAD-TO-TOE

    Development of the whole child means pulling all the learning together and seeing how all the pieces fit together.

YOU’RE NOT ALONE. YOU CAN TRUST YOUR INSTINCTS. YOU CAN TRUST YOUR BABY.

WE’D LOVE TO HAVE YOU JOIN THE GROUP.
