Urgent- Toddler behaviour specialist - anyone hired one / know someone that has?
Has anyone ever hired one of these toddler behaviour management specialists who come to stay for a few days to help you better learnt to manage tricky toddler issues you’re struggling with.
It’s not cheap. But I’m a solo parent no extended family and feel I’m so in the dark with the tantrums I’m both confusing my daughter and a third of the time loosing my patience. It’s got really bad my lack of feeling I can’t do this with no guidance I’m dreading spending time with her 🤦🏼♀️
She’s super smart (smarter than I ever was) but I don’t have the skills, the support network. The help. And I’m reaching breaking point. Starting to feel like if I don’t get some outsider help I’ll damage our relationship and these are the crucial years. I need it for both myself and her.
Has anyone used one of these professionals, knows someone that has?
Before I use our only holiday fund to book one I’ve spoken to. (They’re not cheap 🤦🏼♀️🤦🏼♀️🤦🏼♀️). Can anyone help shed some or any light in if this is a waste of money or it helped someone you know who did this?
