Changing the question from 'How can I make my child do this/stop that?' to 'What does my child need right now? How can I help them?" opens the door to connection, closer relationships and growth.
When children laugh after doing something they shouldn't have, it's not because they are 'naughty'. Laughter is the brain's natural response to a stressful situation. It releases tension. It's a brain's way of saying 'Oops!
After they’ve hurt their sibling, children can’t show love or caring because they feel guilty and scared. Don’t let this distant attitude fool you. Your child aches because of what just happened and needs love and a warm connection with you more than ever

Parents' testimonials

"I attended Raluca’s online study group in 2021 and straight away found her to be very warm and approachable. She communicated the Hand in Hand Parenting tools and ideas really well, giving personal, helpful examples to deepen our learning. The way she facilitated the group was excellent and the experience of listening time with other parents, sharing our difficulties and joys in such a supportive environment that Raluca created was wonderful. It was not diminished at all by being online which I found surprising, Raluca helped us all feel at ease and trust developed amongst group members very quickly. Raluca clearly is very knowledgeable about the Hand in Hand Parenting approach and is a great communicator. I would thoroughly recommend Raluca to any parent looking to learn more about Hand in Hand Parenting tools or who’s just looking for a warm, supportive listener."

"Such an insightful webinar! I got so many helpful ideas on practical things to try with my son in difficult situations. I liked the way you explained what goes on in their little developing brains in a way that’s simple and easy to understand. It helped me realise how I can further help my son and be there for him in those intense moments they all go through. I also found so much value in the way you shared how you handle practical day-to-day situations with your little ones. Having clear examples was so useful in finding ways to connect with my little one, so that we can develop a strong relationship. Thank you so much, Raluca!"
