The aim of the course is to develop both theoretical knowledge and practical educational and communication skills based on respect, empathy, and support for the child’s development. During the course, participants learn and practice ways of building supportive relationships with children that take into account their emotional and developmental needs.
The course covers strategies for accompanying children in experiencing emotions, strengthening their self-esteem, and resolving conflicts together. Participants also reflect on adult responses in difficult situations, learn to work with their own emotions, and develop the ability to set boundaries constructively and non-violently.
The course introduces alternatives to traditional disciplinary methods, such as punishment, and focuses on techniques that encourage children’s cooperation and independence. Special attention is given to freeing children from harmful labels and roles, as well as to strengthening relationships through appropriate praise and support.
