Based in decades of research, the course takes complex attachment research and organizes it into a simple set of concepts that help caregivers see their relationship with their child more clearly. Through the course, caregivers can learn how to better understand their child’s emotional world and be able to support their child in successfully managing their own emotions.
This course is designed for caregivers who are currently or will be parenting children between 4 months and 6 years old. We are willing to take outside of this range on a case by case basis. For questions on the course, eligibility, or to register, please contact Renee Schmitzer at rschmitzer@tracpgh.org or 412-471-8722 ext. 245.
