What parents need to know about co-regulation

“How can I help my child manage their big emotions, when I can’t even manage my own emotions?”

This episode of the Meaningful Motherhood podcast is all about the topic of self-regulation and how this leads to co-regulation – or a parent’s ability to help support their baby or child manage their emotions, feelings and behaviours. We also talk about the impact on a child when a parent struggles with their own self-regulation, and what we can do to seek support in these instances.
