All children require a nurturing, inclusive environment to develop and grow.  This workshop explores how to address challenging behaviors in a supportive and nurturing way in childcare settings.  We will explore strategies to prevent challenging behaviour from occurring and alternative communication strategies. Also, this workshop discusses how childcare providers can work together with families to develop an effective support plan to address a child’s challenging behaviors.
