Publisher's summary

How well do you know your child? More importantly, how could you help them navigate through a traumatic series of events? Adults often don't know where to begin when soothing a child's fears after troublesome world events or from a crisis within the home.

If you're a parent, guardian, educator, coach, or advocate for a child, you have numerous opportunities to guide them in their development.

Your role plays a crucial part in a child's development, even if your advocacy and presence in a child's life feel small to you.

When a caregiver gains more insight into the importance of trauma sensitivity, they provide a child with the opportunity for resilience and success.

With approximately 70% of people experiencing traumatic events by adulthood, we need to become champions for children so they can find a healing route toward an improved future.

With a bachelor's and master's degree in education and over 30 years of experience, plus training in trauma sensitivity, author and mother of two, Jennifer Alushan, is ready to give parents and caregivers proven techniques to effectively understand and authentically interact with children so the healing process can begin.

A very insightful book

As a parent myself, I found this book incredibly insightful and practical. Jennifer's extensive experience shines through as she guides us through understanding trauma and its effects on children.

What I appreciated most was her emphasis on the importance of being a trauma-sensitive caregiver. The techniques she outlines are not only easy to implement but also make a significant difference in how we can support our children during tough times. The book covers everything from recognizing various types of trauma to enhancing a child's self-expression and emotional bonding.

My favorite part was the research on adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) and how it relates to parenting.

Overall, "Trauma-Sensitive Parenting" is a valuable resource. It's a must-read for any parent, guardian, or educator looking to make a positive impact on a child's life!
