Listen "Why doesn’t my toddler like their new sibling?"

Episode Synopsis

Not liking their new sibling isn’t necessarily a personal thing against the baby but this is a huge change and impact on a little one’s life. This episode is all about why this is and what you can do to help. We spoke about: How a 2 or 3 year old is going to find the arrival of a new little baby coming a very difficult concept to grasp and it's also going to be a big adjustment for the parents! The range of emotions that come with having a new baby. The importance of not forcing the relationship between the new siblings and why. Connection, consistency and keeping boundaries.  Considering if the resistance might be because of any big changes for your little one before baby was born. Thinking about what's happening from your little one’s perspective and working from that. The life lessons that the children are learning from being a sibling. Our blog from this episide – https://www.bespokefamily.co.uk/blog/why-doesnt-my-toddler-like-their-new-sibling Facebook @bespokefamily  Instagram @bespokefamily   For information about a Bespoke Family Parent Consultation click here: https://www.bespokefamily.co.uk/parent-consultations    ‘Your Guide to...’ (our downloadable webinars including behaviour, toilet training, sleep and more)  This podcast is produced by Decibelle Creative
