Here The Beckies are joined by Hayley a child and adolescent psychotherapist.
Hayley was a teacher who decided to understand and research further around supporting emotions in the classroom. She fell in love with play therapy and how to understand and support children.
Working with families and creating robust connections is so important.
With the child at the centre and building trusting relationships is always the place to start. We look at anxiety for children, perhaps running away, not wanting to go in. Hayley discusses anger as an anxiety and fear response. We explore children's behaviour as communication.
Don't often think of soothing when we see anger
have a listen and see what could help our responses as educators and families.
Take a breath and feel into what is going on for you - soften ourselves and think how we are framing this. Respond and validate.
Grab a cuppa and have a 10 min listen with us.
Thank you for listening and being part of this awesome early years educational environment creating spaces where all children are understood.
