RIE Parent-Toddler/Infant Discussion and Observation Sessions at Kids at Work! |

RIE (pronounced “wry”) stands for Resources for Infant
Educarers, a non-profit organization founded by Magda
Gerber in the 1970‘s. RIE promotes a way of seeing
infants and toddlers that enables adults to form close,
authentic relationships with them through observation,
attentive care and basic trust in their natural abilities.
During the classes, which are facilitated by one or two
RIE-trained infant & toddler specialists, small groups of
parents come together in a relaxing, calm and infant
friendly-environment to take pleasure in the infants’
unfolding development and play. Adults quietly observe
their babies exploring and teacher modeling when and
how to intervene. Adults then discuss their observations
and insights during intellectually stimulating
conversations that provide education about their children’
s development and suggestions for making their lives
with their babies more enjoyable for both of them.
