Preparing For The First Day of School
Little Sprigs Podcast
If your child has some anxiety about separating, it can be super helpful for them to see you connecting with the teacher. I would invite the parent to hold their child and sit down with me for tea.

This can be more important than pressuring the child to open up to the teacher and accept them. Also, if you have rarely left your child, then some practice with family members or good friends is a good idea before school. Practice your goodbye routine...

How To Get Your Child To Clean Up After Themselves
Little Sprigs Podcast

Especially when our subconscious has connected speaking out to experiencing pain.
It can feel scary to find out that our truth looks very different from who our parents think we should be.
Every human walking the earth has a story.
