Positive Discipline Classes now open!

Taking time to Learn...

What is Positive Discipline? Many believe that “discipline” shouldn’t be comfortable in order to cause change. An Adlerian Psychology based theory, Positive Discipline, is actually based on maintaining dignity and respect through firmness and kindness at the same time.

Join fellow parents and our trained Positive Discipline instructor and Oak Farm Montessori Teacher, Ines Oldenburg, for an engaging and interactive six week course beginning in November that will help you:

1. Connect before you Correct. When a child feels safe, they are much more open to learning what you would like to teach them because the brain is more receptive.

2. EnCOURage. Cour-means heart. The child’s heart and your heart connect when you are able to let go of some control and begin to support their thinking.

3. Get Into the Child’s World. Psychologist and Montessori student, Alfred Adler, said, “We each look at the world, including a child, differently. Wouldn’t it be great if you could put on your child’s glasses to see the world through the eyes of the child?”
