RELATIONAL PARENTING

Using PACE to support your child with their emotions every day

This free course introduces a relational way of parenting that helps children feel safer, calmer, and more understood during everyday emotional moments.

It focuses on connection first, not behaviour control.

This course is for parents who notice that:

• Big emotions escalate quickly
• Reasoning or reassurance makes things worse
• Behaviour strategies stop working under stress
• Their child seems emotionally younger than their age

If this sounds familiar, your child is likely responding from their emotional brain, not choosing the behaviour.

Children change when they feel safe enough to do so.

PACE is a relational stance that supports emotional safety first.

PACE stands for: Playfulness, Acceptance, Curiosity, Empathy

This course shows how to use PACE in real moments, at different ages.
