Parenting by Connection Parents Intensive In-Person in Palo Alto
When parenting gets intense, our Parenting by Connection Intensive gives you expert attention and support. Deepen your understanding of how to reduce the stress of parenting and create the warm cooperative family atmosphere we all want to share with our children using the Listening tools of Parenting by Connection. Together we'll work through what gets in our way and makes parenting such a challenging job. Each participant will choose a key issue to work on with the instructors support, it could be anything from sibling rivalry, to helping a child overcome fears, to strengthening your attachment with an adopted child. The Intensive is about you, your family, and the things you want to work on.
This ten-week class is designed for parents, stepparents and caregivers who are already familiar with Parenting by Connection. You'll practice Listening Partnerships and Special Time skills each week. You'll have weekly in-person meetings.
The Parents Intensive was amazing for me and my family (my husband and I were lucky enough to attend together). We both learned how to be more patient with our 2 year old son during meltdowns and how to set limits effectively. As a result, so many daily routines are easier for us now: taking vitamins, brushing teeth, getting dressed -- they all go much more smoothly (for the most part) and when they don't, we know how to deal with it. I look forward to taking more classes with Hand in Hand. Having access to this community, the support and coaching is absolutely invaluable to us. It keeps me sane!

"I believe, as parents, we can give when we receive what we want to give; connection, playfulness, and warm and relaxed attention. I hope to co-create a safe community for parents to soak in the respect and appreciation that we all deserve. It’s truly exciting to share what I have been learning as a parent using Parenting by Connection tools the last four years through sweat and tears. The positive changes that have been brought to my family are far beyond my original expectations." -Keiko Sato-Perry | |

"I have a vision that parents find and experience the joy there is in parenting. I find that sometimes we can't think of what to do, others, we might know the right things to do but it gets so hard to to them in isolation. We second-guess ourselves, we become discouraged. This class gives parents the support that helps them recover their intelligence, feel confident and regain the joy of parenting. I am thrilled to be a part of this." -Teresa Zepeda Kelleher |
