Authentic Hearts

based on?
Relationship and connection. Our babies are relying on us to understand & respond to their communication.
In class you gain the understanding of what impacts this and ways you can reestablish connection even if you got off to a rocky start.
The Peaceful Partnership ideas are developed from over 75 years of research from the Pikler Institute in Budapest.
Dr Pikler was a family paediatrician who 'watched the babies' and discovered just how much they could do
in their own time and in their own way.
Her common sense approach, has stunning results, that you can continue using throughout baby's lives.
Pennie Brownlee developed these classes to reflect our New Zealand culture and classes are presented by those who have attended her 'Dance with me in the Heart' Training.
Other's have developed Dr Emmi Pikler's work that you may have heard of
- such as Magda Gerber - RIE & Janet Lansbury etc.

What happens?
Classes are held in a warm, comfortable home setting with a small group size to maximise discussion and connection
with other like minded parents.
There is a perfect balance between forming connections with others and time to learn about your
baby's growth, needs and development.
Each session there is a quiet time when adults don't 'talk'. This allows parents the opportunity to take a breath and find some calm as they observe their babies in action. Learning exactly how capable and competent their babies already are.
This becomes parents most favourite time of the day - as they get to let go the stress of parenting
and really connect with their babies.
"The class exceeded my expectations. I have actually learned skills that I will take into the rest of my life and that is really special. Thank you Jacqui!" - Kate

About Jacqui
My name is Jacqui O'Connor and I have always enjoyed working with children. I have worked for Playcentre for 23yrs and Facilitated the SPACE Infant Programme for over 15yrs.
I love allowing children and parents the opportunity to feel valued & empowered.
Pennie's Training and the Pikler teachings
really resonate with me and I can see the difference they make to mum's, dad's & the babies .
These classes allow me to utilise my wide variety of skills to offer parents the kindness, support and guidance they need as they navigate becoming a parent.

"I absolutely loved the course that Jacqui delivered and it has shaped the way my husband and I parent our daughter. Jacqui has a calm, gentle approach with both the adults and the babies and provides a safe space to share and learn together with no judgement. I highly recommend this course! - Amy
