Strategies for complex needs /// Ever wonder why Strategies for complex needs /// Ever wonder why that strategy you read about isn’t working ? It’s often because it’s not addressing what is at the core for that child. A need an skill to learn …. Strategies work when they address what’s at the core. Vs the surface. #childhoodeveryday #momssupportingmoms #behaviours #complexneeds #neurodivergent #childhoodmentalhealth #teachingkids #supportingkids #parenttips
Reminder to parents /// This is not about perfect Reminder to parents /// This is not about perfection. Nothing about parenting is intended to be perfect. It’s about doing you best to show up everyday for your kids. How you show up will change from day to day and moment to moment. 😉 ✨ Let’s start to normalize the beautiful imperfections of parenting. #parenting #parentlife #parentcoach #parentingtips #neurodivergent #adhd #autism #odd #behaviouranalysis #bcba #momssupportingmoms #southrockmoms
Impulse control /// Often children are responded Impulse control /// Often children are responded to as if they should know better and regulate, when in fact it’s the opposite. Regulation is supported and coached before it should be expected to be something g a child does on their own. #regulation #impulsecontrol #adhd #asd #odd #neurodivergent #childdevelopment #parentcoach #behaviouranalysis #bcba #moms supporting moms
Participation at school /// A reminder that child Participation at school /// A reminder that children don’t show up to school with the intent to disrupt and avoid. There are reasons. It helps to take the time first to understand before we assume, force strategies /action steps that won’t work. #supportingkids #childrenlearning #parenttips #educators #studentsuccess #neurodivergent #adhd #asd #odd #momssupportingmoms #schooltips #complexbehavioursupport
Advocacy with schools /// The season of goal plan Advocacy with schools /// The season of goal planning and advocating for students is upon us. I recently had the privilege to speak to a group of educators about supporting students with more behavioural needs and one of the many themes that came from that was the understanding that children do not all learn the same way. ✨ when this idea is released and the idea that children have many diverse ways of showing attending and learning is accepted we begin to BRIDGE a deeper understanding for how best to support more diverse learners. A big shout out to those who are creating more diverse and inclusive learning spaces 👏🏼👏🏼 ✨give a 👏🏼 if you agree #kidslearning #education #diverselearners #neurodivergent #asd #adhd #odd #parentingtips #educators #supportingstudents #vancouvermoms #southrockmoms #teachingkids
Teaching when upset /// Here is the thing about t Teaching when upset /// Here is the thing about teaching children how to respond when upset, the teaching is never intended to happen when they are upset. But often adults will find themselves in a state of correction when a child is already upset and explosive. So a reminder today that this is not the time to teach, and in fact will likely lead to further escalation. ➡️Teaching happens when children are relaxed and engaged with. And many children will need you to coach, guide and teach for a long time until they fully acquire the capacity to USE the strategies when upset. ✨Be sure to save and share with someone who may need the reminder today. #parentingchildren #parentingtip #southrockmoms #vancouvermoms #behaviourmanagement #behavioursupport #ADHD #ASD #ODD #neurodivergent #childhood #childrenlearning #SEL #socialemotionallearning #regulation
Focus in behaviour /// ✨ A reminder that if you Focus in behaviour /// ✨ A reminder that if you want a child to change a behaviour start focusing on the DO vs DON’T. When you bring all your attention to what a child shouldn’t be doing it can lead to kids feeling worse about themselves , frustrated and doesn’t offer an alternative. 💫So the next time you want to support a shift in a challenging behaviour a child is exhibiting start focusing on the do or even the absence of the don’t. ✨ provide goal specific praise. When they are doing the desired action ✨ praise the absence of the challenging behaviour during a trigger ✨ TEACH MODEL COACH - kids learn from example and when we take the time to teach both outside and in the triggers. #complexbehaviour #challengingbehaviour #teachingkids #educatortip #parenttips #parentcoaching #schoolsupport #childhoodmentalhealth #neurodivergent #socialemotionallearning #southrockmoms #vancouvermoms
Complex Behaviour /// Far too often I will hear a Complex Behaviour /// Far too often I will hear adults say “that child is manipulative, they know better.” But what if instead of anchoring into this mindset we made a shift to: “That child is doing the only thing they know how in that moment …, and it’s something that has a history of working” aka it’s been reinforced. See the difference? In the second phrase we stop looking to the child and instead begin to look at the adults. That’s not to say learning might not be needed for the child, but that our first course should be to look to the environment and people in it. ✨ today I encourage you to take a moment and reflect on your thoughts towards a child having a difficult moment. Can you reframe them? #childhoodmentalhealth #childhoodbehavior #kidsbehavior #parentingtips #educatortips #supportingkids #behaviour #act #mindfulparenting #counsciousparenting #childhood #reinforcement
After school behaviours /// Resource I’ve crea After school behaviours /// Resource I’ve created a free resource available to you from shop on my website www.micheleshilvock.com The resource will help parents unpack a deeper understanding to the behaviour eruptions after school and bridge this understanding to create strategies to help reduce the behaviours. #afterschool #behaviorsupport #parentingtips #asd #adhd #neurodivergent #childhood #kidsmentalhealth #positiveparenting #parentsupport #complexbehaviours
After school stress /// A reminder that the explo After school stress /// A reminder that the explosive greeting after school you get from your child is not what they want either. Their stress has been building all day, so the more you are able to keep calm for them and support them the better. #afterschoolactivities #afterschoolstress #childhoodmentalhealth #childhood #parentingtips #parentingsupport #parentcoach #behaviouranalysis #kidsstress #southrockmoms #momssupportingmoms #vancouvermoms
