Susan Tracy McDaniel
PRESENTATION:
“Trusting Infant and Toddlers”
TARGET AUDIENCE: Infant/Toddler
DESCRIPTION:
Adults often worry about infants and toddlers. Adults may believe that the youngest children can’t do anything for themselves and that we must do everything for them. In this session, Susan will remind you that, as we observe, trust replaces worry. We can see the capability of children rather than seeing them as helpless. This helps us to avoid over-helping and interfering.
ABOUT THE PRESENTER:
Susan Tracy McDaniel has worked with infants, toddlers, parents and educators since 1989. She teaches observation in several teacher education courses, and to parents. Susan is instructor in AMS’s Instructor Academy. She mentors others to start Parent-Infant programs in their communities on four continents and her dream is that parents everywhere would have access to the support we can offer through Montessori.
