"Toddlers, never a dull moment; let us give you the play by play."

At the nest we believe that it is the toddler’s job to be defiant. Is your toddler’s favorite word no? At this stage, toddlers are trying on and experiencing feelings for the first time. The task at hand is to help them make meaning of this new world of emotions.

Understanding who your child is, who you are as a parent, and developing a discipline style is a long term process. This mommy group will define your expectations and determine each group member’s parenting style. In each session you will learn about your child’s development and social emotional growth in relation to their family and their peers. We will walk you through:

•	Engaging a toddler’s desire to explore and try new things.
•	Discovering how to respond to a toddler’s big feelings.
•	Techniques that work to soothe toddler’s emotions, as well as your own. 
•	Equipping your child with “Emotional Intelligence.”

You will experience “couture discipline” as we partner with you in discovering a discipline style that fits your family. Week to week we will check in with you to assure that the interventions are working. At the end of group, each member will be clear on how to best make choices for their little one. Our goal is to help each parent feel confident that the choices they are making for their children are the right ones.
