Goodbye Getting Even: Tips for Positive Behavior

You redirect one child who hit, comfort another who was bitten, stop someone from throwing, and before you know it… it’s happening again.  
These behaviors can quickly take over your day — leaving you trying to keep children safe while wondering why the same behaviors keep happening.
This self-paced training by a Speech Language Pathologist will help you learn:
  1. What’s actually behind behaviors like hitting, biting, and throwing, so you’re not just reacting.
  2. How to respond in the moment in a way that helps children feel understood, without escalating the situation.
  3. To teach children what to do instead, so the same behaviors don’t keep repeating.

Learn how to implement positive discipline strategies that support long-term behavior change — so you can spend more time connecting, teaching, and supporting children.

Frequently Asked Questions:

See what early childhood educators are saying

"I loved the circle times that Kelly did. They really helped cement the concepts for me.

Some of the highlights that stuck most with me were the three A's approach, the stick person lesson, which I will be implementing tomorrow, using a wish at the end of a validation, and that children do what we do vs what we say. The last item seems so basic but I think as teachers and caregivers it is an easy one to forget about!” 
"A highlight was how to support children from different cultures, also the info on how it might be a child's first time learning about feelings, not all families address feelings.

I also felt that there were a lot of good strategies and solutions presented. I especially liked the activity where the teacher crumpled the paper child when kids said mean things and then asked how that could smooth out the wrinkles.” 
"The examples scenarios were very helpful. I also thought the downloadable handout was a great reference with many useful printouts.

I liked the breakdown of the different types of teachers and how kind and firm are most essential to development of confident and competent children in the class. She gave clear examples of children's behaviors due to the type of teacher they may have. She gave clear examples and models of how to speak with the children through many incidences.”

I work alongside teachers every day caring for children with developmental delays, feeding challenges, speech and language disorders, and more.

I kept hearing the same thing: "Our trainings don't teach us this." So I created trainings that do! 

No fluff. Just practical strategies designed to fit naturally into everyday routines with infants, toddlers, and preschoolers
