If you suspect your child is experiencing stress… Encourage and nudge them towards healthy coping strategies. What works for one child may be different for another and could include anything from a physical activity to playing with a pet to journalling. In addition, ensure they have someone who is trustworthy and who will listen to what they are experiencing without judgement.

Back to school!
“For parents, the start of school is a significant milestone. We know that success at school – or difficulty – will influence our children’s life-long learning, health, career satisfaction and social success. If your child is just starting school, it is helpful to remember that children are born “Ready to Learn!”
- Nanci Burns, MSW, RSW & Nancy Rubenstein, ECE.
Support your child in succeeding by understanding and working with their unique temperament. Take our eLearning course, Is This Child Mine? Understanding Your Child’s Unique Temperament.

Looking for some budget friendly ‘back to school’ ideas for the kids?
Try hosting a ‘kid clothes exchange’ event. Everybody brings clothing items their children have grown out of and do an exchange. Everybody goes home with some ‘new’ well fitting items. This could greatly narrow down the essential items you do need to buy for the kids and save you money.
