Child & developmental psychology; Family & relationships; Advice on parenting

Childhood & the Enneagram serves as an innovative guide for parents and caregivers, offering invaluable insights into raising resilient, self-aware, and compassionate children.

Drawing from a blend of attachment theory, childhood development, and the transformative power of the Enneagram, Susan Parker Jones shares a philosophy and approach rooted in her experience as a psychotherapist specializing in childhood trauma and loss.

In a world where parenting advice often feels overwhelming and one-size-fits-all, Susan offers a refreshing approach that blends ancient wisdom with modern insights.

Inviting parents and guardians on a transformative journey of self-discovery and compassionate parenting, she empowers caregivers to understand their children's unique personalities and needs on a deeper level, fostering authentic connections and resilience from an early age.

Susan emphasizes the importance of nurturing children's three centers of intelligence-head (IQ), heart (EQ), and body (GQ)-to cultivate ""wholehearted connection"" while instilling the truth that every child is brave and worthy of love and belonging.

Caregivers are invited to embark on a journey of self-discovery, exploring their own childhood narratives alongside practical strategies for guiding their children.

Ultimately, this helpful guide equips caregivers with the tools and insights needed to navigate the complexities of childhood development, fostering deeper connections with their children while prioritizing their own well-being.

By embracing this journey, caregivers can aspire to raise resilient, empathetic individuals prepared to face the world with courage, wisdom, and compassion.
