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. We will explore strategies to prevent challenging behavior from occurring and alternative communication strategies. Also, this workshop discusses how parents can work together with childcare providers to develop an effective support plan to address a child’s challenging behavior.
Malgosia Tomanik, M.Ed., is a Family Consultant who specializes in supporting children from preschool to high school age and their parents/caregivers in a variety of environments, including homes, school, and childcare settings. Malgosia is experienced in addressing concerns associated with the daily challenges of caring for a child/youth who requires support, helping to make sense of difficult behavior and supporting the “big people” for each child in finding a way through.
Malgosia also is employed as an FASD Key Worker with the Fraser Valley Child Development Centre in Abbotsford, Canada. In her role as a Key Worker, Malgosia provides support to parents/caregivers raising children and youth who are living with FASD.
