Teacher Kira - Our Parenting Place
Our Parent-Infant Guidance classes are a great opportunity to observe and learn from your child. Facilitated by experienced RIE® Associates, small groups of parents and babies come together in a relaxing and intentional environment that supports children’s overall development and parent's confidence. During class, babies play, explore and discover new skills, ideas and friendships while the parents learn about problem-solving, conflict resolution and setting limits.
My journey working with parents and children started a long time ago before I came to America. One of the first things I noticed while working in a preschool was the amount of stress and challenges parents and teachers handled throughout the day. Parents and teachers tried to eliminate the challenges and “put down the fire,” but it seemed like a never-ending cycle. I hoped that choosing a major in Early Child Development would provide me with the knowledge to help and support them. The more I studied, the more I came to the realization that one of the puzzle pieces was missing. When I found RIE, I found the missing piece!!
My main mission is to help parents feel confident in their parents’ roles and to make parenting easier and more rewarding.
Today, I teach RIE® Parent-Infant Guidance™ classes, courses, workshops and I am also available for private consultation. Please feel free to contact me if you are interested in any of these services.
