Temperament of Infants and Toddlers: Understanding and Supporting Individual Differences

Instructor: Julie Clinkscale, IT Specialist with CCRI, Inc.

Class will be held in the Partnership Meeting Room

We all have our own way of adapting and responding to the world around us. Are you distractible, sensitive or easy going? These characteristics describe temperament. During this workshop, we’ll learn about 9 temperament traits and 3 large categories used to describe most infants and toddlers. Strategies on how to care for children based on their temperament type will be shared. We will also discuss the goodness of fit: between your own temperament and the infants and toddlers in your care.
