Podcasts about early child development

The early years of a child's life are crucial for their development. Falling behind early can mean never catching up. How can countries ensure lasting benefits from early childhood education and care? In this episode of Top Class, Stephanie Jones, the Gerald S. Lesser Professor in Early Child Development at Harvard University, and Professor Henrik Zachrisson from Centre for Research and Equality in Education at Oslo University, discuss with OECD Editor Duncan Crawford ideas to ensure that all young children get lasting benefits from early education.

What are the best things about having closely spaced siblings? What about farther apart? Siblings' closeness, amount of conflict, and relationships as adults are all affected by the age differences between them. In this episode, the listeners with closely spaced children tell us why that has worked for them (constant playmates) and not (constant bickering), while those with kids with larger age differences point to the unexpected connections that can still result.

Toddler sleep is ever changing. During the toddler years our little ones drop naps, they may move to a big bed, battle bedtime and they may begin to experience nightmares or terrors. We are joined by our sleep experts Dr Fallon Cook and Dr Laura Conway from Infant Sleep Australia to talk all about Toddler sleep. Dr Fallon and Dr Laura hold PhDs in Psychophysiology and Early Child Development respectively, and specialise in paediatric sleep. They listen carefully to the voices of parents – who are the experts in their children - and work together with families to find sensible, tailored sleep solutions that are backed by research.  We ask: • How much sleep does a toddler need? • What is toddlerhood generally such a time of change in regards to sleep for toddlers? • How long should toddlers keep their day sleep? • How do you drop the day sleep (and avoid your little one falling asleep at 3pm on the way to school)? • When your little one turns into a toddler, if it is often time to get a toddler bed (as there may be a sibling who needs the cot) what are some tips to help a toddler transition to a bed? • Why do toddlers start to battle bedtime? • What are your tips to ensure an easy bedtime?  • Suggestions for how to keep the toddler in their bed at night time? • Sometimes when our little one reaches toddlerhood they can start to have nightmares/terrors. What are these? What is the difference and what should we do as parents if our little one is experiencing a nightmare or a night terror? • What are top tips to ensure healthy sleep habits for a toddler?

Welcome back to Pediatric Meltdown today we are joined by Dr. Colleen Kraft. Dr. Colleen, the past president of the AAP 2018 and offers an overview of the impact the pandemic has had on child development including safety and security, nutrition, physical health, educational opportunities, and responsive caregiving. These are the pillars that make up the WHO Nurturing Care Framework. Dr. Kraft takes us beyond assessing the damage and instead focuses on the strengths that still stand. She makes the analogy of a house on fire. The house is burnt to the ground, but the foundations remain. Let's build from that. Rooms were damaged, but the house still stands nearly whole. Let's repair and rebuild. The home was filled with smoke, but the fire was extinguished. Let's clean away the soot and repaint. This analogy reminds us of the power of hope and action. As clinicians, we can help families see the possibilities and we can connect them to resources. We can also advocate for an educational reframe that supports college and academics and vocational paths. We need a society that embraces all skills and opportunities. In closing, Dr. Kraft reminds us that we are the child experts and that our voices matter.   Colleen A. Kraft, MD, MBA, FAAP is the Senior Medical Director for Clinical Adoption at Cognoa, a digital medical device company designing products to address the unmet developmental and behavioral health needs of children. Dr. Kraft served as the 2018 President of the American Academy of Pediatrics. Her background includes work in primary care pediatrics, pediatric education, and health care financing. Dr. Kraft received her undergraduate degree at Virginia Tech and her M.D. from Virginia Commonwealth University, and her MBA from the University of Cincinnati. She completed her residency in Pediatrics at Virginia Commonwealth University.        [00:29 - 08:47] Pediatrician Colleen Craft Shares Her Vision for the Future of Pediatrics Dr. Colleen Kraft is a pediatrician and the senior medical director for clinical adoption at Cognoa. She has been a pediatrician for 34 years and served as the 2018 president of the American academy of pediatrics. Her journey into pediatrics drew her to work with families and children, promoting their optimal physical, developmental, and psychosocial health. She is also an advocate for pediatricians and all the work that we can do on behalf of kids.   [08:47 - 16:51] Virtual Reality Therapy for Phobias The world health organization promotes the nurturing care framework, which focuses on five pillars of early childhood development: adequate nutrition, safety and security, opportunities for early learning, and healthy relationships. During the pandemic, safety and security for children were disrupted by the death of adults and the displacement of secure bonds with parents. Housing insecurity was a major problem during the pandemic.   [16:51 - 24:36] Children Suffered from Cognitive and Motor Developmental Deficits during the Pandemic There is a disruption in various aspects of children's lives during the pandemic, including their safety, health, and early learning opportunities. the importance of responsive and caring adults in providing nurturing care for young children, and notes that this was particularly disrupted during the pandemic. The negative effects that virtual learning can have on children, and notes that this is particularly true for those with disabilities or who are struggling with attention span.   [24:36 - 36:28] Resilience is Built on Relationships Pediatricians need to start with the basics and focus on relationships with kids to help them rebuild their resilience. Schools can play a role in helping kids rebuild their resilience by assessing their strengths and promoting vocational skills based on what kids want to do. Adults need to remember that they are valuable and that their skillset does not just include...

Her research focuses on things that influence the development of mental health and early learning problems in children.

There is no doubt that we are in a stress epidemic in our fast paced and modern world. But Daniel Keating says this may seem pretty paltry in comparison to what's coming. He predicts a full stress pandemic on the horizon, where everything needs immediate fixing or else it's perceived as an existential threat.Daniel Keating is a Professor at the University of Michigan in the departments of Psychology, Psychiatry and Pediatrics. And he wrote a couple of books, the most recent being Born Anxious: The Lifelong Impact Of Early Life Adversity And How To Break The Cycle.In that book, Daniel looks into early childhood and prenatal experience and how experiences here shape our stress response as adults. We hear more about that groundbreaking research in this episode, as well as the importance of resiliency, the precariousness of the modern workplace, and possible policy interventions to reduce stress in early childhood and pregnancy.Episode Quotes:What accounts for our current stress epidemic: I think what we need to recognize is that people can feel stress not just about material insufficiency or the fear of it. Precarity is the new term, that their circumstances are precarious enough that they might experience material insufficiency at any time. And so there's that, but then there's also the whole status component to it. Where do you stand within your group, amongst other people? And those are psychologically very real threats. So if you feel like you're sliding down the social ladder and that you could wind up on the dreaded “welfare” word, or that you could lose your home and your family would be homeless. Those may not be immediate material insufficiency things, but they're certainly status threat kinds of things to our psychology, our identity.High SES parents are desperate for kids to maintain social status:That also puts a huge amount of pressure on those kids. You have got to succeed, right? You absolutely have to succeed. If you don't succeed, it gets to the point where it feels, although it almost surely in reality is not, it feels like an existential threat. You're going to lose your status. Our status. So we need you to do everything. If you don't get into one of the ivys or the big 20 top rated schools or whatever, all is lost. Despite the fact that there's no evidence to support that.The future of stress:At some point, if you ramp the stressors up enough, nobody's going to have the capacity to withstand it. I don't care how much supposed grit you've got, it's going to overwhelm you. And the more you increase the vulnerability. The less the stressors have to be to overwhelm you. When you're increasing both, which I think we are, I think the vulnerabilities increasing partly because of this kind of whole epigenetic shift that's going on. And, at the same time, we're very rapidly ramping up the stressors out of the societal structure and societal practices. And I think that's just such a really bad mix.  Show Links:Guest Profile:Daniel Keating on TwitterDaniel Keating on LinkedinFaculty Profile at University of MichiganHis work:Daniel Keating on Google ScholarBorn Anxious: The Lifelong Impact of Early Life Adversity - and How to Break the CycleConstructivist Perspectives on Developmental Psychopathology and Atypical Development (Jean Piaget Symposia Series)Nature and Nurture in Early Child Development

What if there existed a book with a masterful integration of contemporary neuroscience, research on human development, educational theory, and philosophical thought? What if this knowledge was reinterpreted from the perspective of stories about children and what fosters or holds back their developmental potential? And what if the journey led to the conclusion that it is possible to create a genuinely just society? That book is available now, and it is up to us as a society to make the choice to follow its wisdom.

Cumulative exposure to psychosocial adversity in the early years of life can have an adverse effect on early child development (ECD). Focus on ECD is growing globally, yet to date, the bulk of research on adverse psychosocial experiences and child development has taken place in high-income, Western countries, despite a large burden in developing countries. This month, we meet Early Career Investigator Dr. Annie Berens, a pediatric resident at the University of California San Francisco. She created the Childhood Psychosocial Adversity Scale, a novel measure of cumulative risk which has had its first application in Bangladesh.

During this episode, Sue Badeau and I discuss: ways to build a positive relationship with birth families, how to work with difficult bio families and how to prepare our kids for reunification.  Susan Badeau (Sue) writes and speaks extensively on topics related to children, particularly those with special needs and is a frequent and passionate keynote speaker and workshop leader at state, regional and national conferences.  Sue and her husband, Hector, are the lifetime parents of twenty-two children, two by birth and twenty adopted (three, with terminal illnesses, are now deceased).  They have also served as foster parents for more than 50 children in three states, and as a host family for refugee youth from Sudan, Kosovo and Guatemala.  Recently, their 35th grandchild and fourth great-grandchild were born.  They have won numerous awards for their work, including being recognized by President Clinton with an ?Adoption Excellence? award, and receiving an ?Angels in Adoption? award from Congress ? both of these awards were for their work on behalf of adoption and children in foster care.  The Badeau family children come from many ethnicities and personal backgrounds. Some children were adopted at birth; others were teenagers when they joined the family. Some are from the United States; others are from countries around the world. Some have mental, physical, intellectual, or emotional challenges.  Active in Summit Presbyterian church, Sue and Hector have always found the motivation, strength and guidance for their life and work in their faith, particularly in Matthew 18:5-6, James 1:27,  and Luke 18: 6-7.  In addition to their own children, Hector and Sue have served as surrogate parents for countless neighborhood and church children.

DR. STUART SHANKER World-renowned professor of psychology discusses how stress affects children’s behavior…and what we can do about it There is no such thing as a bad kid. According to world-renowned professor of psychology Stuart Shanker, even the most frustrating, annoying or troubling behavior has an explanation—and a way forward. In SELF-REG: How to Help Your Child (and You) Break the Stress Cycle and Successfully Engage with Life, now available in paperback, Dr. Shanker reveals a revolutionary new understanding of stress and how it affects children’s emotions and behavior. He shows how children’s “bad” behavior is often an expression of their inability in the moment to respond to everything going on in and around them. We are seeing a generation of children and teens with excessively high levels of stress and, as a result, an explosion of emotional, social, learning and behavior problems. Shanker explains why self-regulation is so critical to our well-being and shows us how to identify stressors and reduce them. He shares practical advice for parents to help their kids engage calmly and successfully in learning and life. Dr. Shanker discusses: Why our ability to thrive—to complete tasks, form friendships, and learn—depends on being able to self-regulate. The difference between misbehavior and stress behavior. Why emphasis on willpower and self-control is not only misguided but actually counter-productive. How our kids feed off our stress and we feed off of theirs…and what can be done to break the cycle. The link between behavior and energy: how hyper-arousal and hypo-arousal affect behavior and how they can be managed. How many of the “tricks” parents use to calm or quiet our children (i.e. giving them an iPad to watch or video game to play) actually makes it harder for your child to calm down. In SELF-REG, Dr. Shanker helps children (and parents) develop the capacity to manage themselves to meet all challenges and live up to their fullest potential. About the Author: Dr. Stuart Shanker is a distinguished research professor emeritus of psychology and philosophy at York University and the creator of The MEHRIT Centre and the Self-regulation Institute. He is a former president of the Council of Early Child Development. Dr. Shanker attended the University of Toronto, where he received his bachelor’s and master’s degrees. At the University of Oxford, he obtained his D. Phil. with distinction. His expertise has been sought internationally, and he has been an adviser on early child development to school boards and government organizations across Canada and the United States. https://self-reg.ca/

Children's Corner: Self-Reg: How to Help Your Child Break the Stress Cycle ~ Guest: Dr. Stuart Shanker In a paradigm-shifting new book, SELF-REG: How to Help Your Child (and You) Break the Stress Cycle and Successfully Engage with Life, Dr. Shanker reveals a revolutionary new understanding of stress and how it affects children's emotions and behavior, as well as practical advice for parents to help their kids engage calmly and successfully in learning and life. Rooted in decades of clinical practice and research, SELF-REG shows how children's “bad” behavior is often an expression of their inability in the moment to respond to everything going on in and around them. As Dr. Shanker observes, we are seeing a generation of children and teens with excessively high levels of stress and, as a result, an explosion of emotional, social, learning and behavior problems. In addition to the stressors we're well aware of (overscheduling, testing, social pressures), there are many “hidden” stressors—environmental, emotional, physiological—that we may be overlooking. Dr. Stuart Shanker is a distinguished research professor of psychology and philosophy at York University and the creator of The MEHRIT Centre. He is a former president of the Council of Early Child Development. Dr. Shanker attended the University of Toronto, where he received his bachelor's and master's degrees.
