Lesson Overview

1.1 – How to Stay Calm When Your Toddler Won’t Stop Screaming: Staying calm when your toddler is screaming feels nearly impossible, yet your steadiness is the anchor that helps them find theirs. First, recognize that screaming is often a toddler’s only way to express overwhelm, hunger, fear, or fatigue. Take one slow breath before responding—your pause is more powerful than any words. Drop your shoulders, relax your jaw, and lower your voice to signal safety. Whispering, humming, or turning down lights can change the emotional temperature of the room faster than yelling back. Tell yourself silently, “My calm teaches calm,” because children mirror energy before they understand language. Have a quick plan for soothing yourself—a drink of water, counting to ten, or walking a few steps away while ensuring safety. Remember, you are not losing control by feeling stressed; you’re learning regulation in real time. Each time you stay composed, your child learns emotional security. Over time, that practice builds trust, patience, and confidence for both of you.
