SUMMARY:Webinar: 3 Essential Skills to Calm Behaviors & Create More Peace at Home
DESCRIPTION:Join Us for a Webinar: 3 Essential Skills to Calm Behaviors & Create More Peace at Home\nWednesday\, August 12 from 12:30-2:00pm CT (via zoom).\nParenting through foster care or adoption can be incredibly meaningful\, but it can also bring unique\, frustrating challenges. You may find yourself wondering why typical parenting strategies don’t seem to work\, or why everyday moments can quickly turn into power struggles\, meltdowns\, or shutdowns. In this practical workshop\, you’ll learn three brain-based parenting tools from the Mad to Glad Blueprint™ that help create more calm\, connection\, and cooperation at home. You’ll discover the concept of “fire in the brain\,” why some children react so intensely\, and common parenting responses that unintentionally add fuel to the fire. You’ll leave with simple strategies\, renewed confidence\, and hope that peace at home is possible! \nPresented by Samantha Moe\, MA\, SLP  \nFor more than two decades\, Certified Parent Coach and international keynote speaker Samantha Moe\, MA\, SLP has equipped parents and professionals with proven tools to help children with big feelings calm\, connect\, and cooperate. Creator of the Mad to Glad Blueprint™\, a revolutionary brain-and-nervous-system-based approach\, Samantha has partnered with leading U.S. organizations\, including early childhood authorities\, top autism agencies like Fraser\, and the MN Association for Children’s Mental Health. Her approach to positive communication works to soothe and even prevent intense kids’ most challenging behaviors\, creating more peace and enjoyment for families around the world.  Find out more at: www.samanthamoe.com \nThis webinar will take place on Zoom.

SUMMARY:B.E.S.T. (Basic Education for Safe Travel)
DESCRIPTION:This hybrid course combines interactive online learning with hands-on instruction from a certified car seat safety technician. The cost of this class is $25 per person. Locations vary. \n  \nThis class is also a great option for parents\, grandparents\, or any caregivers who want to learn more about transporting children safely.  If you are licensed to provide foster care (or childcare) for children aged 8 or younger\, this course is required every 5 years. \nB.E.S.T. takes approximately 2 hours to complete. The first hour takes place online. You will receive access to a learning management system and be guided through an interactive Car Seat Basics presentation. You must complete this presentation prior to attending the second hour of training. After completing your online coursework\, you will attend an in-person session with a certified car seat technician. Instruction will take place at YOUR vehicle. If you have a car seat(s)\, this may be used for instruction\, otherwise\, Children’s Home will provide seats for you to practice with. In-person locations vary. Please sign up for an in-person date and location that works best for you. You will receive a certificate of completion during your in-person session. \nView & Register for an upcoming B.E.S.T. course
