Big Emotions, Little Learners

Behaviour, regulation, and emotionally informed practice

This course explores behaviour as communication, not compliance.

You’ll develop a clear understanding of emotional development, co-regulation, and why traditional behaviour management approaches often fail young children.

Designed for practitioners working directly with children who want to respond with confidence, consistency, and compassion — without losing boundaries.

You’ll learn:

Why children struggle with regulation

The adult’s role in co-regulation

Responding to challenging behaviour without escalation

Supporting emotional development through daily interactions
