Positive Boundaries Workshop

We live in a sensory-rich world and spend each waking moment taking in information from the world through our senses. Our intricate nervous system and brain process this sensory information and we respond emotionally and act on it. As we progress through life, we develop the ability to select which sensory information to attend to and how to respond. Your young baby’s brain, however, is much less developed than yours.

Meg Faure

Hi, I’m Meg Faure. I am an Occupational Therapist and the founder of Parent Sense. My ‘why’ is to support parents like you and help you to make the most of your parenting journey. Over the last 25 years, I’ve worked with thousands of babies, and I’ve come to understand that what works for fussy babies works just as well for all babies, worldwide.

ACKNOWLEDGE

Acknowledge your toddler’s intent. By giving airtime to your little one’s preferences and ideas (all be they crazy at times), you will let him know that he is understood. Say: “I know that you want to ….”

BOUNDARY

Boundaries must be clear and confirmed. Toddlers develop security in the presence of clear boundaries. Say: “But we do/ can not ….” Be firm and clear and consistent.
