Positive Parents - Resilient Kids with Dr Terence Sheppard and Milly Albers

We're joined by Carene Shimmield, an Early Childhood Teacher with a wealth of experience and passion for nurturing young minds. Join us for passionate conversations on how children can be raised and supported in school environments, as well as exploring strategies educators can implement to bolster resilience in their students. We'll explore the pivotal role of schools, especially in the formative 0-5 age range, where crucial foundations for future personality development are laid. Carene brings a unique perspective, having studied early childhood education at Flinders University in 2012 and gained experience across various educational settings, from early childhood centres to primary schools, both public and private.  We discuss boundaries, anxiety, social skills and more. Tune in as we unravel the interplay between neurodevelopment, psychology, and cultural influences in shaping the individuals our children become.  *** These are discussions based on topics from "Positive Parenting: A Guide to Raising Psychologically Healthy Children", written by Dr Terence Sheppard and Dr Margaret Kummerow.
