About the show

WEEKLY, BITE-SIZED INSIGHTS HELP YOU GET THE MOST OUT OF HAND IN HAND PARENTING'S CONNECTING APPROACH.

For over 30 years, Hand in Hand Parenting has been helping parents understand their children's emotions and the impact they have on a child's behavior. Using five science-backed tools, this approach helps parents support their children so that behaviors transform, without timeouts, punishments or yelling. It's a nurturing approach that feels good for parents ands their children, and it builds co-operation, co-regulation and compassion. 

In these bite-sized podcasts, you’ll find  intimate peeks into how you can use the tools in your family – and one small thing you can try every week, so you can meet any challenging behavior with confidence.
