Working with young children and families in crisis can be challenging but deeply meaningful. This workshop will support professionals in understanding how adversity and trauma affect the body, mind and relationships in early childhood. Through case examples and practical tools, participants will explore ways to engage families with sensitivity, strengthen children’s capacity for emotional regulation and partner with caregivers to create safe, supportive environments. The session will also highlight strategies for maintaining professional resilience and well-being while supporting families through difficult experiences.
