Please join us to explore this crucial topic with Tovah P. Klein, Ph.D. The toddler years are a distinct and foundational stage of human development. Vast amounts of growth take place emotionally, socially and cognitively as toddlers move out into the world and develop their sense of self. Separation and need for a secure base underlie development as toddlers slowly gain independence and experience a myriad of emotions. This process unfolds in the context of relationships, with primary caregivers and other adults, as well as entering the world of peers and learning about others.

The webinar will cover all areas of development with a focus on the interconnectedness of developmental areas, including parent-child relationships, emotional understanding, play, and brain development. There will be time for Questions and Answers. 

Participants of this webinar will be able to:

• Increase their understanding of the foundational role of toddler development as a base for ongoing development
• Increase their understanding of the primacy of the parent-child relationship for healthy development across developmental delays
• Gain an understanding of the interplay between areas of development and the role of play for healthy toddler development

This webinar is for all of those working in the perinatal period as well as children birth to 5 and their families.
