Instructor Specialty: Listening to Infants

Shoshana Blagin

I first discovered Hand in Hand in 2016 whilst pregnant with my son. At the time I had been working at the Mental Health Hospital and was disturbed by the disciplinary methods parents were being taught to use with their children. I vowed to myself that I would do it differently with my son, and after attending a Hand in Hand talk on understanding children’s emotions I was inspired by what I had heard, and the philosophy and approach resonated with me. I am passionate about empowering and supporting parents to feel more confident and pleased with their parenting and enabling families to bring warmth, fun and laughter into their home.
