How to Support Secure Attachment
Supporting secure attachment in a daycare, hospital or as a birth professional
“I love that there is a research-based resource for parents in Vancouver.”
The Biology of Infant Sleep
Supporting parents with evidence based research on the needs of infants and sleep, what to expect from their baby and how to cultivate healthy sleep habits.
“I am so grateful to have received such relevant information from this presentation. Bonnie’s delivery was clear, fun, easy to understand and priceless with regards to learning the necessary heart-skill presence newborns need and deserve.”
Craniosacral therapy
Supporting secure attachment as a therapist that works with babies, including craniosacral therapists.
“ I invited Bonnie Davis to be a guest speaker at my pediatric Craniosacral Therapy class. Bonnie is a gifted presenter. It was clear that she had immersed herself in the topic of Attachment and Bonding and delivered the material it a way that was logical focused and entertaining. Many students commented that it was a valuable and enlightening experience.”
Tummy Time Fun!
This fun workshop for nurses, childcare professionals, doulas and midwives will give you hands on skills to support the babies you work with to increase their body awareness, which stimulates brain development: the foundation for physical, social/emotional and cognitive development.
The importance of Movement
Cultivating an environment of learning with babies and toddlers through touch, movement and face-to-face interaction. You will learn why movement is so important for learning, how the brain is wired through movement.
“Bonnie did a totally marvelous job of conveying the information in a good, useful way for parents.”
Understanding and supporting toddler's overall development
You will learn how a toddler’s brain develops, how their brain grows, what to expect from them, and how to support their social/emotional, cognitive and motor development.
“The information in Bonnie’s presentation is such a good reminder of what babies and parents need to start down the road to healthy relationships. The brain development research leaves no doubt in my mind that I need to slow the pace when offering support to all the children and families I’m working with.”
“Bonnie’s presentation ‘Inside the Newborn Brain’ brings awareness to all that our society needs to return to the connected village in support of the parent/child attachment. She shares clear scientific research on brain development which sheds light on the infant experience through a consistent, caring, and loving primary caregiver linking this directing to how the infant will thrive and be positively influenced for future success in life. I walked out feeling empowered, and emotionally ready to embrace my responsibility to consciously parent with heart. Thank you for creating such a strong awareness of what an infant needs and deserves. I would definitely recommend this seminar.”
“I really appreciated the infant brain development workshop, and have already shared parts of it with pregnant couples. It’s easier for them to understand baby-time and baby-processing and over-stimulation when I explain the neurological background.”
