Episode 236: How to help children cooperate with Maru Rojas

I'm so delighted that Maru Rojas, an Aware Parenting instructor in London, originally from Mexico, is back on the podcast again. Maru was on episodes 129 and 184. Maru and I discuss the nuances of helping children cooperate and understand the world around them. Maru shares examples of how providing information to babies and children can make everyday tasks like hair brushing, nail cutting, and applying sunscreen easier. We emphasise the importance of meeting children’s needs for agency, autonomy, and choice, while also addressing accumulated feelings that might cause them to be unwilling to cooperate. We explore how attachment play can be a magical tool to foster cooperation as well as the deeper connection it creates between parents and children. Maru is also a teacher of Elimination Communication and offers courses and 1:1 consultations in both Aware Parenting and EC.
