“Thank you so much for this conference. I gained so much confidence in what I’m doing and can do with my children. I have two littles under two and our youngest was born during the pandemic which has made play and family adjustments so challenging. I really have to capture the time I have with my toddler when I get it and now I feel like I have way more tools in my toolbox. The conference was well organized and easy to access. The variety of speakers was fantastic and I loved the inclusion of their own “mom” experiences. I can’t thank you enough!”

Meet the hostess
Wasn't Play Supposed to be the easy, joyful part of raising small humans?
Hi, I’m Holly and I am your hostess for the Toddler Play Conference. I am a Pediatric Occupational Therapist and mom two sweet (and very active) toddlers.
After working in clinical practice for over 10 years and raising my own small humans I am more convinced than ever that play is the most undervalued and misunderstood tool in our parenting toolbox.
Childhood development in the early years is critical in establishing a firm foundation to become a responsible, healthy and kind adult. The way we mothers structure our toddlers days (from what toys they play with, to how we act to co-regulate their emotions) become the building blocks for their development.
5 days of real-mama tools for understanding what your small human is learning in the toddler years
The FREE conference will be held online from 22 - 26 April 2021 kicking off at 8am EST
