We're so excited to have Tina Payne Bryson, one of New York Time's Best Selling Authors", join us for a Live-Virtual Event on June 27th!

Tina is the author of BOTTOM LINE FOR BABY and co-author (with Dan Siegel) of the two New York Times best-selling books THE WHOLE-BRAIN CHILD and NO-DRAMA DISCIPLINE, along with THE YES BRAIN and THE POWER OF SHOWING UP. She has just completed the manuscript for THE WAY OF PLAY (Random House 2025), co-authored with Georgie Wisen-Vincent.

On June 27th, she brings to us a session on "Rethinking Challenging Behaviors with the Brain in Mind". The goal for this training is to help us better understand what children's behaviors are communicating and how child care providers can respond to those behaviors in effective ways. If we're responding effectively, we will be building the brain while keeping relationships and regulation in mind, which will set them up for successful change.

The first 100 Registrants will receive Tina's book "No Drama Discipline"!
