YOUNG CHILDREN

Infants & Toddlers | 0 - 3 years old

Babies and young children pack much more complexity in their tiny packages than their sizes suggest. Right at birth, and way before, lots of learning has begun.

Yet, their gurgles, cries and physical needs are often misunderstood, misread or improperly met because their behaviors do not always throw light onto the going-ons inside their brains.

Most commonly trained concerns

• Sleep issues - not sleeping through the night, crying/screaming through the night

• Constant crying in the day

• Constipation

• Poor feeding

• Toilet-readiness challenges

Pre-Schoolers | 4 - 6 years old

Tiny brains develop in rapid and fundamental ways during a child’s early years. Billions of connections among neurons are reinforced. Relationships, environments and experiences provide both great opportunity of potential and risk of vulnerability to disruption impacting his development.

Children of this age group generally respond fairly quickly and positively to training.  

Most commonly trained concerns

• Sleep issues - difficulty falling asleep, frequent nightmares, fear of dark and sleeping alone

• School-readiness challenges - preparation for school interview, toilet readiness

• Bed-wetting

• Excessive crying/ Poor emotional regulation/ Poor social interaction with other children

• Picky Eating 

• Not meeting developmental milestones - self-care skills, delayed speech, reading, writing

• Hyperactive, sensory challenges - especially to sounds, touch
