Parenting is one of the most important and demanding roles a person can take on—yet unlike teachers, who receive formal training and certification, parents are often expected to “figure it out” on their own. This seminar is designed to support and empower parents, especially those with young children or children in early intervention programs, to become confident learning coaches at home. In this interactive and informative class, participants will:
- Learn how children grow cognitively, linguistically, socially, and emotionally.
- Explore simple, research-based strategies to build a learning-rich home environment.
- Discover how everyday routines—mealtime, play, conversation, and reading—can become powerful teaching moments.
- Gain practical tools for supporting early literacy, communication, and emotional resilience.
- Reflect on their own strengths and values as caregivers and learning partners.
Led by an experienced teacher educator and author, this class blends real-world insight with developmental theory in an encouraging, down-to-earth format. Whether you’re a first-time parent, a caregiver of a child receiving early support services, or just looking for guidance and connection, this seminar will give you the tools to nurture a confident, curious, and capable learner—starting at home.
