Setting Up Parents, Teachers and Students for Remote Learning Success During Covid Times 
Practical Tools to Enhance Families Emotional Wellbeing

Picture
No family planned for this, but now that it’s here, we are all doing our best to make it work. By supporting families, we hope to create cohesion between homes and schools while easing the stressors of educators during this trying time. Our takeaway wellbeing tips and tools will provide teachers and school staff with the knowing that their families are receiving  support they deserve.

In our mission to prevent trauma and support healthy social and emotional development of children, we see the urgent need to focus our attention in offering effective resources to support resiliency and stress reduction at home, not only in the interest of children’s academic education, but more essentially in the interest of their physical, social, mental and emotional safety, wellbeing and ongoing development.
The Challenge

As a result of the COVID 19 pandemic and associated stay-home and social distancing orders, increased rates of risk factors remain of significant concern as far as children’s health and wellbeing is concerned:
  • family conflicts
  • persistent stress
  • substance abuse
  • domestic and child abuse
  • mental health disorders, including anxiety and depression
  • ​suicide 
Children are particularly vulnerable to adversities given their limited ability to self-protect and, as revealed by extensive studies, notably the ACE study, adverse childhood experiences directly and strongly correlates to a wide array of threats to children’s health and well-being during their life spam.

Aside our direct line with parents everywhere, our collaboration with schools allows us to each as many parents as possible at this time with resources to set them and their children up for remote learning success with greater harmony and less stress.

We have packed in a 90-minute talk highly effective tools that can be applied by parents for immediate results. Topics of this talk include:

      ~ CONNECTION: Tapping into the power of parent-child connection, especially in times of crisis.

      ~ STRUCTURE: Creating an environment and a routine favorable to a harmonious home, including remote learning

      ~ CALM: Confidently responding to strong emotions (yours and theirs)

      ~ AUTONOMY: How to foster autonomy and self-motivation in our children and control our need to control everything


Whether you have young children attending in-person, or older ones navigating the world of remote learning - you can benefit from the many parenting resources that will be shared in this talk.

How we differ...

We have the honor of creating a safe learning environment  When parents feel shamed or inadequate in their role, their own barriers rise - blocking their ability to welcome new information. Additionally, we strive to deliver information in an interactive and relatable way. Parents must feel the information is talking to them, their needs and circumstances. When involved in a dialogue or experiential exercises, our minds are more actively engaged to reflect versus passively listening.
