You swore you’d stay calm this time.
But then your toddler started screaming...
your chest tightened, and before you knew it...
you were shouting too.
You love your child more than anything, but sometimes it feels impossible to stay steady when they lose it.
You end up exhausted, ashamed, and wondering: why can’t I handle this better?
You’re not broken. And neither is your child.
You’re both learning something no one ever really taught us--how to feel.
the problem isn't that your toddler feels too much
The problem is: WE didn’t learn how to process emotions when we were toddlers, ourselves.
When we were little, feelings were often treated like problems to fix: too loud, too messy, too much.
So we practiced hiding them, rushing them, or shuttting them down entirely.
And now here we are, raising toddlers who feel EVERYTHING, and suddenly we’re face-to-face with what we were never taught.
It’s not just their yelling on the floor. It’s our own pulse quickening, our throat tightening, that inner voice whispering, “I can’t do this again.”
That’s what this workshop is about--learning to work with emotions, not against them. To process what we feel, and help children do the same.
I’m Layne, and I'm here to help.
I’ve spent more than a decade working with toddlers and families--often 12 two-year-olds at once, which should probably count as a degree in emotional regulation.
I know what it feels like to lose your cool and think, “If I can’t even regulate myself, how can I help this kid do it?”
Here’s the thing: emotional intelligence isn’t a skill we teach toddlers like letters and numbers.
It’s something we practice--together.
When we learn to process our own emotions, we naturally show children how to do the same.
