Speaker Bio: Alison Macklin is a Toronto based Parent Coach and Certified Child Sleep Consultant. She studied Psychology and Sociology at the University of Toronto, and took an interest in child development, but her passion for the world of sleep began when she became a mom, and further more, parent coaching, when her daughter experienced those terrible two’s. Her mission is to help has many families through what is often the most stressful part of raising a child. She believes good sleep and a strong bond without all the guesswork and stress is something everyone deserves access to. She practices supportive behavioural tools from Hand in Hand Parenting, which are trauma informed and connection based. You’ll get a first hand glimpse into why your child behaves the way they do, what it means, and how to help them return to the awesome child you know they are.
