Videos to Support You – Emotion Coaching

Lucy has recorded a session for you all about EMOTION COACHING.

This is a strategy we use at nursery to help young children learn to self-regulate, feel safe, be confident.

Using an Emotion Coaching response, we empathise and acknowledge feelings but also support children with high guidance to develop the skills they need to regulate themselves and navigate life. Please find the video here.
