Puzzles of Parenting – online series of classes
Every parent has questions, and even though at times it might feel like
you want to raise a white flag and surrender, we’re here to help. The
Puzzles of Parenting is a series of online classes designed for parents,
grandparents and caregivers of young children. It provides knowledge
and support to enhance your confidence and improve your ability to
make informed parenting decisions. Register for one or two - or perhaps
all three.
• A to Zzzzzs - Baby Sleep Basics (Tues., Feb. 4, 11, & 18 – $5)
Sleep - or lack of it - is one of the most challenging adjustments
to parenthood. Understand the science of infant sleep cycles and
how they affect your baby’s sleep environment can go a long way in
making for a better rested family.
• Taming Temper Tantrums
(Tues., Feb. 25, Mar. 3 & 10 – $5)
Is all that stomping, yelling and thrashing starting to wear you out?
Learn to better understand your child’s temperament and how that
can impact behavior, especially tantrums.
Why parent only
classes?
Kids don’t come with
instructions.
Parenting classes aren’t just for
new parents or caregivers; they
are designed to meet the needs
of today’s families by providing a
community and shared learning
experiences for moms, dads,
grandparents, and those who work
with children.
Classes offer families with children
ages birth through grade three the
knowledge and support needed
to work through the challenges of
many early childhood milestones
and help you raise confident,
cooperative and responsible
children.
Registration information can be
found on pages 38-39.
• Parenting with Positive Discipline (Tues., Mar. 24, 31 & Apr. 7 – $5)
Learn to understand the reasons behind challenging behaviors, and
how to effectively set limits and boundaries with your child in a way
that shows love and respect.
