Saturday, March 10 (10:00 am–12:00pm), TBPS Library
Experienced and loving infant/toddler teachers, Kelley Hayes (owner of The Learning Garden Childcare,
Moretown) and Kirsty Gourlay (Parent & Child program leader at Lake Champlain Waldorf School, Shelburne)
join for a facilitated conversation about helping an infant or young child (and family) transition into care with a
new provider. We’ll discuss ways to help mitigate the stress and prepare children for becoming comfortable
with new caregivers, practices and routines that maintain family bonds, and communication between families
and providers, as well as your questions around topics like handling bottle-feeding or naps in care settings.
