In today's episode of Lean Into You, we talk with Rebecca Parlakian, the Senior Director of Programs for ZERO TO THREE. In our chat, we will talk about what it means to be a co-regulator of our emotions with the children in our care. We will cover:
1) Noticing stress accumulation is the first step towards regulating our emotions
2) Adjusting our expectations to the ages and stages of the children in our care
3) How we can begin to regulate the toughest parts of the day
4) The importance of relaxing into being a "good enough" teacher
