What Is the RIE Parenting Method?

RIE inspired Parent-Infant Guidance Sessions

RIE inspired Parent-Infant Guidance Sessions are designed to encourage babies to engage, to explore, to be active and attentive. Each gathering is centered on group play session during which parents and the facilitator observe, discuss and gather key insights. Infants learn how to be aware of self and others and become authentic and responsible from an early age. The RIE-inspired sessions help parents to learn to trust and to be confident in their supportive role. They also learn how to quietly observe their infants exploring and how to refrain from reacting unnecessarily. The sessions are facilitated by a RIE® Foundations Course graduate and a RIE mom. The groups are small and sessions have intimate character where all questions and discussion are welcome at the end of the session. Each session is also an opportunity for parents to learn about their children’s development and ways of making their lives with their babies more enjoyable for all involved. The gatherings take place in an infant-friendly, calm and relaxing environment for all participants to take pleasure in their infants’ unfolding development and play. Groups are formed according to infant’s stages of gross motor development. Groups remain together over several class series. And as per Magda Gerber's recommendation ideally until they reach the age of two.

RIE inspired Parent-Child classes, are based on the Magda Gerber's philosophy commonly called RIE.

RIE can be shortly described as "Parenting with Awareness" or "Art of Aware Parenting". It is a simple and revolutionary at the same time way of SEEING, APPROACHING and BEING with children of all ages, and particularly infants and young toddlers.

During those classes, children in the same developmental stage are gathered together and allowed to explore free in a safe, specifically designed environment, with an open-ended objects and various structures allowing them to develop their fine and gross motor skills, their awareness of self and others without being unnecessarily guided or interrupted.

Parents get to quietly observe their children and learn not to intervene. That builds parents' confidence in their supportive role and their trust in their child's abilities. The RIE facilitator is assuring children's safety.

At the beginning and end of each sessions, we allow time for discussion.

Topics for discussion often include:

• Age-appropriate expectations

• Reading your baby’s cues and signals and how best to respond

• The importance of play in children’s learning
