Attachment, the Brain & Human Happiness

Macedon Ranges BaBs along with the Empathy Foundation are proud to present a seminar with acclaimed psychologist and parenting educator Robin Grille.



In a world that accepts detachment as the norm, Robin Grille has a refreshing take on the way in which we can nuture true attachment to our children. Parenting “experts” advocate shaming, punishments, rewards and emotional manipulation to produce “good” children. In an inspirational, honest talk, Robin address the true cost of societies acceptance of disconnectedness and the science behind the way our childhood experiences influence the adults we become.



Robin's seminar Attachment, the Brain, Human Happiness will look at the explosion of scientific research around the world in child development, emotional intelligence, brain development and the human heart. Never before has so much been known about how childhood experiences shape the adults we become, and this new knowledge is revolutionising the way we understand our babies and children. Parenting and child care are undergoing great changes in the wake of these discoveries. This presentation will place you at the forefront of these changes.



In this presentation you will learn:

• How your affection literally grows your child’s brain!
• How to give your baby and child the most emotionally secure start in life
• The key early childhood experiences that promote your child’s emotional intelligence
• How healthy emotional development ensures your child’s physical health – for the long term



This presentation is for parents, grandparents, child health professionals, early childhood teachers and carers.
