On this episode of the Adeona Family Podcast: An Early Childhood Journey, we discuss the need for co-regulation with significant care-givers in the lives of children and how this helps children build the vital skills necessary in order to self regulate. We offer practical advice on what co-regulation can look like and examine the importance of entering into interactions with your child in a calm and non-reactive manner.   What is co-regulation? Co-regulation is the process by which people are able to adjust themselves when interacting with another, so they can maintain a regulated state. These responsive interactions provide the support and modelling children need to understand, express, and modulate their thoughts, feelings and behaviours.   Thank YouWe’d love to hear from you!
