Behavior Management
Whether it’s a tantrum, talking back or ignoring instructions, kids’ behavior problems can be hard on the whole family. Conflict stresses everyone out and it can be hard to know how to de-escalate tensions. In our parent coaching program, we teach effective responses to your child’s behavior and help you keep things calm. At Kefi, we find out what’s important to you, and work within your values and parenting style to find personalized ways to support your child and entire family.
Building Independence and Self-Help Skills
Parenting is a balancing act of helping your children and letting go to encourage independence. It is not an easy task, but our parent coaching helps you find that middle ground. At Kefi, we help you develop goals and strategies to promote healthy parent-child relationships. Together we help you increase independence, improve relationships, better understand your children’s learning styles and behaviors, and establish self-confidence in your parenting. We equip you to respond instead of reacting, with calm emotions during stressful situations to improve communication and outcomes.
“Baby and Me” Early Language Music and Read Aloud Class
Believe it or not, learning to read actually starts at birth. Babies read signals all around by listening to voices, watching faces, and noting body language. The early experiences of hearing and playing with sounds, patterns, and spoken language prepares them to read, write, and succeed in school. In this fun class, you will help your baby develop early literacy skills by reading, speaking, or singing to them. We use books, sign language, making music, and storytelling to nurture your baby’s development. This class is great for babies from birth to 12 months!
