Self-Reg Parenting is an online course that shows parents how to apply Shanker Self-Reg® in their day-to-day parenting.

learn the impacts of excess stress on children’s behaviour and mood
come to grips with their own stress and how it affects their parenting
identify and address the subtle and hidden stressors that affect children in ways that parents might not realize
find out how other parents use Self-Reg strategies to deal with real-life parenting situations and problems
The course material consists of videos which parents can watch at a their convenience, and rewatch as often as they like.

Dr. Stuart Shanker, originator of the Self-Reg framework and author of Self-Reg: How to help your child (and you) break the stress cycle and successfully engage with life
Dr. Susan Hopkins, Executive Director of the MEHRIT Centre

Dr. Shanker and Susan Hopkins provide the core information on Self-Reg and the five-step Shanker Method®.
