Happy Mothers Day to the strong women who have children, whether they be their own, or others who have found their way into a mothers care.

Happy Mothers Day to grandmother's that are involved and care deeply for not only their own children, but grandchildren and other younger people.

Happy Mothers Day to the Dads who have to fill motherly shoes for whatever reason.

Happy Mothers Day to those women who may not be Mothers themselves, but are aunts, godmothers or close friends to mum/dad.

Happy Mothers Day to the teachers that filled the hole for parents who were struggling, or children who needed an extra eye at school.

Happy Mothers Day to the women in communities that are there for younger people around them who need that guidance, knowledge or comfort.

Happy Mothers Day to day carers and babysitters that help mums and dads have a chance to feel human and not worried about the safety of their child, who step in and care temporarily for a child they may never see again.

Happy Mothers Day to the next door neighbors who hold play dates, sleep overs and parties so parents have a chance to breathe and take a break, who do it cause they don't mind being the person to have the kids round all the time.

Happy Mothers Day to all and anyone who has filled a motherly, caring, feminine role at any stage for any reason, as caring for a smaller human who is learning boundaries, rules and how to be a human is not an easy role to fill, and for that, this day is for you to feel special, cared for and loved in a way only one who has cared for another can.

One of my favourite tactics to get children to cooperate in a gentle parenting/authoritative (not to be confused with authoritarian) style is to give the child/ren the illusion of choice.

Here's an example:

You need to go to the supermarket to go shopping, and your child doesn't want to go.

Now you could "bribe" them by saying that you will buy them a treat at the store, but that doesn't show them that sometimes we have to go to the store and no be rewarded (using a reward system everywhere can come back to bite you)

Instead do this:

"Hey, I know you don't want to go to the store right now, however, I need to go buy food to make make sure you don't get hungry! Now, did you want to put your shoes on first, or did you want to pack up what you were doing?"
(Or something along those lines)

That gives them the realization that this is something they need to do (even if they don't want to) and they get to choose what to do next.

Another way to help your child engage and be cooperative is to get them to help you, again the illusion of choice. So in this example, you could also say:

"I know you're engaged with (activity) at the moment, however, I need to go shopping and I need your help to pick out dinner tonight, and what snacks you want to take to school this week!"

This approach gets them excited to come with you again and again cause they feel important getting to contribute to the family.

If you want to go out this weekend and like the approach I have, feel free to message me to see how I can help you!

Such a common topic in today's world.
What is gentle parenting?

Gentle parenting doesn't equal permissive parenting. You can still strict and set boundaries in a gentle parenting/childminding approach without yelling/being loud and have the child be responsive and cooperate with you. In the example below we see the "typical" response when we see a child in danger vs a gentle parenting response. See how a boundary is set while still explaining why the warning/boundary has been said?

I work with children in this way due to many reasons, but mainly children are just little humans. They can still understand the words we speak no matter the situation, so we can still use words in a calm way whilst educating to child as to why/why not we do certain things.

I am happy to assist parents who would like to start using this type of parenting if they inquire with me as to how to start πŸ’š
