Hitting

Hitting (and any of that type of ‘inappropriate’ behaviour) can be difficult whichever side you are on – either the parent of the child who is hitting or the one who has been hit. 

We chatted about: 

  • Why Children (and some adults) do this! 
  • Emotions and how they affect children’s behaviour. 
  • Cause and effect – ‘if I do this what happens’. 
  • How children are attention needing and that this can drive their behaviour. 
  • Children laughing when they’ve hit you...and why?? 
  • How to respond when a child hits. 
  • Looking for triggers and pre-empting when it might happen. 
  • Working together with nursery to help with the situation. 
  • “Kind hands” 😂 
  • 3 things to remember when your child hits.

Newborn to Teen and Everything Inbetween - it does exactly what it says on the tin! Join childcare experts Becks and Claire for practical advice about how to communicate with children, at all ages.
There can be a lot of pressure to 'get it right' when it comes to children, which can be quite daunting! Whether you’re a parent, a teacher, TA or childcare worker, or just looking to gain a better understanding of the world through a child’s eyes, Becks and Claire have 25 years of childcare experience to share with you. Listen for reassurance and support to help you navigate tricky conversations, challenging behaviour, complex emotions, and the general day to day pressures of raising and working with children.
This is a judgement-free zone - you won't find a one-size-fits-all rule book here!
