Separation anxiety can be very emotional. While it’s hard to leave your child with a trusted caregiver when they are upset or asking you to stay, there are some strategies you can use to prepare your child and yourself for these tough moments. Join Rachel and Claire as they discuss this very typical (but difficult) stage.

While separation anxiety can be tough for both parents and children, it’s reassuring to know it happens because we love each other so very much. Establishing daily routines and rituals – paired with patience and grace -- will help your child trust the process. And YOU can find comfort in knowing that your child is in good hands, even on the most difficult days.
