This hour long presentation followed by Q&A looks at the neuroscience behind emotionally responsive and connected parenting, as well as tools to support parents to be emotionally warm, available and affectionate balanced with high expectations and a firm but fair disciplinary style. Lindsay is a life and leadership coach, trainer and workshop facilitator here in Rome. She specializes in working with individuals and organizations in the midst of change to leverage the transformative potential that lies in transition and challenge. She finds parenting presents in many ways the most unrivalled challenge and thus an exceptional growth opportunity. Her parent education outreach is heavily informed by the positive discipline approach of hand in hand parenting (handinhand.org).
The event is free but donation suggested to Bellies Abroad.

Presenting the Birth Course I wish I had had! Learn what happens during labour and delivery, what to know for successful breastfeeding and how to take care of your newborn. This series of six meetings will include information on how your body changes during pregnancy, prenatal testing, the hormonal and physical processes that occur during labour and delivery, pain management, and what happens when you are home with your little. We discuss birth plans and, for those of you delivering in Rome, we cover information on Roman hospitals, clinics and home birth and the clarification of roles of the Italian medical professions. Our mission is to arm you with enough information so you can have a birth as close to the one you desire as possible. This course is run by Gabriella Pacini, midwife, lactation consultant (IBCLC) and counsellor and Kiersten Miller her sidekick.
Tuesday evenings from 7pm – 9pm starting January 25th. All meetings will take place online until further notice.
For this course we are asking those who are able, to pay the full cost of the course. For those who are facing challenges in these strange times, we ask to pay what they feel they can in this moment, no explanations necessary.
