Listen "Toddler in meltdown- The first push for independence"
Episode Synopsis
In this series Dr Jenny Brown conveys how each phase of a child's development presents parents with opportunities to step back and consider their part in interactions – to see what is helping to promote gradual independence and self-regulation rather than unintentionally fuelling reactivity or dependence.
