What to do before, during & after your kid’s meltdown - KICBUMP with developmental paediatrician Dr Billy Garvey

Dr Billy Garvey is a developmental paediatrician and a senior specialist at one of Australia’s largest tertiary paediatric hospitals. He has over 20 years experience working with families and children, and training other professionals on how to work with children, plus he’s the dad of two little ones, so he's able to see first-hand how his research and advice plays out in real life.

Billy’s book ‘Ten Things I Wish You Knew About Your Child’s Mental Health’ takes the lessons Billy has learned from two decades working with families and children, including behaviour, social skills, attachment, respect, depression, anxiety and self-esteem.

In this episode Steph speaks with Billy about the biggest misconceptions people have about children’s behaviour and mental health, what to do before, during, and after a child erupts, why parents shouldn’t tell children “it’s okay” when they’re having a meltdown, emotional regulation and how parents can model it for their children, the warning signs for anxiety and depression in children, and why parents looking after their own mental health should be their number one priority.
