Big Feelings, Bright Holidays: Parenting Your Sensitive Child with Heart

Does your child feel everything deeply—joy, frustration, excitement, or change?
If holidays and transitions often bring big emotions in your home, this workshop is for you.

Join Lori Longo, MA, Parent Coach at the Center for Children and Youth, for a supportive and practical session designed for parents of spirited and sensitive children—those who respond strongly to emotions, sounds, or changes in routine.

You’ll learn how to:

• Understand your child’s unique temperament and emotional needs
• Ease daily power struggles
• Help your child manage big feelings and transitions with more confidence
• Create calmer, more joyful holiday experiences for your family

You’ll leave with:

• Simple, compassionate tools for smoother days and fewer meltdowns
• Fresh ideas for managing the excitement and stress of the season
• Greater confidence in supporting your child’s sensitive nature

Bring warmth, connection, and calm to the holidays—while helping your child thrive through the highs and lows of the season.

Fee: $30.
