Workshops
Workshops can be presented at your workplace, school, or in your home.
1.Discipline Without Yelling Nagging or Spanking Do you yell and nag a lot but don’t seem to get the results you want? Effective discipline doesn’t ever have to include yelling, nagging or spanking. Learn powerful strategies that respect both you and your children and work towards self-discipline. 2.Understanding and Dealing With Sibling Rivalry Once we learn the root of sibling rivalry we are better able to curb it. This workshop helps parents understand why children fight and as well as effective ways to decrease rivalry. 3.How To Have A Life And Still Be A Great Parent Since having children do you feel like you no longer have a life and are struggling to find your identity? Learn how having a life of your own actually makes you a better parent. This workshop is very interactive. 4.Stress Management for Parents Stress is a normal part of everyone’s life. Parenting requires us to multitask on a daily basis and we sometimes feel overwhelmed with the multitude of responsibilities. This workshop will help you prioritize and manage stress. 5.Sign Language for Babies I have an extensive background in American Sign Language and taught Sign Language for babies in community centres throughout Vancouver for nearly 10 years. If you want to put together a private group of up to 12 parents in your home, contact me. The fee per person for this 8 week course is $60. I also sell a manual that includes 80 illustrated signs that are taught in the class. 6.Incorporating Sign Language into Your Preschool Program If you are a preschool teacher or childcare provider and want to incorporate Sign Language into your program, this 2 hour workshop teaches you 50 signs and several songs. It is especially useful if you have children in your group with delayed language. 7. Keeping Your Marriage Strong While Parenting *NEW* Once children are introduced into our marriage, things often change dramatically. Our focus shifts from each other to the kids, and all the demands of managing a household. With a 50% divorce rate, we need to learn how to keep our marriage strong and healthy which provides our kids a safe and secure foundation.
