📖 Description: This interactive and practical workshop offers effective strategies for de-escalating challenging and crisis behaviors and fostering calm, positive connections with young children. Participants will gain tools to prevent conflicts before they arise, as well as techniques to safely manage and de-escalate situations when they do occur. This course will cover key concepts such as emotional regulation, active listening, non-verbal communication, and the importance of building strong, trusting relationships with children. Providers will also learn how to recognize early signs of distress, create a calm and supportive environment, and employ strategies that help children return to a state of emotional balance.
