Balancing the Needs of More Than One Child (with Erica Orosco Cruz)

Respectful Parenting: Janet Lansbury Unruffled - A podcast by JLML Press - Tuesdays

Categories:

How does respectful care work when we have more than one child? What can we do when siblings, multiples, and other groups of children seem to need our attention all at once? Janet's guest is early childhood specialist Erica Orosco Cruz, a mother of 4 and the founder/director of Homeschool Garden, a childcare center and preschool/kindergarten for children ages 1-6. Erica trained with Magda Gerber. She encourages parents to allow their children to participate actively in their own care, empower them with predictable routines and cues, learn through age-appropriate conflicts, and express their feelings fully. “Being a mother is no easy feat,” she says. “Being a caregiver of multiple children is no easy feat. But when we have a love and a curiosity for it, it gives us a lot of opportunities to shift, to try different things.” You can learn more about Erica's incredible work, her school, and about her online and in-person workshops at www.homeschoolgardensite.com.
