About this webinar

Sponsored by Bright Horizons


Facing challenges, small and large, is part of everyone’s life. While children are born with an innate level of resilience, caregivers can do so much to strengthen this set of critical life-long skills. In fact, according to the Center on the Developing Child at Harvard University, the most common factor for children who show resilience is having at least one nurturing and committed adult caregiver.

Join experienced early childhood and family expert, Claire Goss, M.A. to explore how the connections you create, and the resilience skills you teach, can give children the confidence they will need to overcome setbacks and become the future problem-solvers of the 21st century.

In this webinar, you will learn:

  • About the connection between resilience and school and life success

  • How this important skillset helps children move through uncertain times, manage adversity, and develop a growth mindset

  • What you can do to harness and nurture resilience in children, and even yourself

Claire Goss, M.A. is the Senior Manager, Family and Client Support at Bright Horizons. In her role, Claire oversees outreach to Bright Horizons families so they feel included in and supported through their child’s education. She holds a master's degree in child development from Tufts University and has worked for 20 years as a parenting and child development educator, researcher, and writer, while raising her three children of her own. She is also a contributor and moderator for family webinars and the Bright Horizons early education podcast series, “Teach. Play. Love. Parenting Advice for the Early Years.”

 

All sessions are 1.5 hours long and include a brief announcement from our sponsor.

2:oo PM – 3:30 PM Eastern Time.
