Raising Kids with Big Baffling Behaviors: a course for parents was created by Robyn Gobbel and is being taught by me, Jeri Lea. This offering is the outgrowth of an immersive yearlong parent coaching training program I participated in throughout 2022. This material is grounded in relational neuroscience, the science of being human. And while this paradigm shifting information has been life changing for me and others, what we all need to explore and shift our belief and practices is a warm, non-judgmental space with others who truly get us and will accept us in all our perfectly imperfect ways. Join me in diving deep, building out your toolbox AND growing community and your own capacity for caring for a child with a vulnerable nervous system. No one should be doing this alone! With this cohort I am also hoping the timing offers an added layer of support through a sometimes-difficult season with space for resting and practicing the concepts along the way. There are also some package options should you want additional support for your nervous system or in applying this information to your unique situation. Below is more about the course, with details about a free intro & package options at the bottom.
Stop playing behavior whack-a-mole with your child’s most baffling behaviors by finally addressing the real problem! This comprehensive course will teach you what behavior really is, and how to change it.
Raising Kids with Big Baffling Behaviors: A Course for Parents is based on the science of being relationally, socially, and behaviorally human. This course will make your child’s behavior make sense- even the ones that don’t.
You’ll become equipped with interventions, tools, and techniques- that actually work! And in this no-shame, no blame approach to parenting, you’ll finally understand why knowing is only half the battle. The course is strategically designed so you don’t just learn a bunch of parenting tools and techniques. By the end, you’ll actually be able to do the powerful techniques you’ll learn..
This course will benefit all parents but is especially offered for parents of kids with vulnerable nervous systems and baffling behaviors. This includes children with a history of trauma and toxic stress (including foster care and adoption), highly sensitive kids, neurodivergent kids, 2e or gifted kids, kids with sensory needs and those with PANS/PANDAS/Mold or other neuroimmune disorders. You might not know why your child has a vulnerable nervous system, and that’s OK. This course is for you, too.
The three core tenets of Raising Kids with Big Baffling Behaviors: A Course for Parents
Section 1- How to Become the Expert in Your Child’s Behaviors.
Using the science of being relationally, socially, and behaviorally human, this section will demystify the most baffling behaviors. You’ll change how to see and interpret your child’s behavior. That change will become the most powerful tool in your parenting toolbox.
Section 2- Now, Let’s “Fix” Those Behaviors.
Your parenting toolbox will be stuffed with brain, body, and sensory strategies- that actually work. These techniques will strengthen your child’s nervous system and decrease baffling behaviors. Better yet, by the end of this section you’ll know what interventions to use when.
Section 3- Why Knowing Isn’t Even Half the Battle.
You aren’t a bad parent, so what happens between learning new parenting skills and actually using those new parenting skills? Section 3 will grow your tolerance for baffling behaviors so you can parent the way that you want to.
