Wellness Yours 

Aware Parenting is supported by research in the fields of attachment, child development, neurobiology, trauma, psychotherapy, and education. It is a respectful and revolutionary approach with many benefits including: helping babies to sleep through the night, preventing discipline problems, increasing children’s attention span, reducing aggression and hyperactivity and helping children to heal from trauma.

 

It is an attachment-based and trauma-informed approach to parenting which does not use either punishments or rewards. It questions most traditional assumptions about raising children and proposes a new approach that can significantly improve relationships within a family and prevent behaviour problems. Aware Parenting prioritises connection and compassion in our families. It gives parents the tools to create respectful and loving realtionships with their children. It provides strategies to support children to be cooperative, loving and connected to their authentic selves. 

​

Aware Parenting is based on the work of Aletha Solter, Ph.D., a Swiss American developmental psychologist, international speaker, consultant, and author of six books. She is recognized internationally as an expert on attachment, trauma, non-punitive discipline, and developmentally appropriate education.
