Parenting is a journey full of surprises, and sometimes, even our best intentions can lead to mistakes we don't realize we're making. In this episode, I sit down with Dasy Perez, a preschool teacher with over 25 years of experience and early childhood expert, to uncover the biggest parenting pitfalls and how to avoid them. From navigating tantrums to mastering potty training, we cover it all. Plus, we’ll explore how to create a nurturing, supportive, and bilingual environment for your little ones.

What You’ll Learn in This Episode:

• The most common mistakes parents make in early childhood (and how to avoid them!)
• How routines build confidence and provide healthy boundaries for kids
• Why quality time and presence are essential for emotional connection
• The key signs your child is ready for potty training and how to spot the "window of opportunity"
• Tips for managing tantrums effectively and fostering emotional growth
• How speaking Spanish at home supports bilingual language development, even if you don't hear your child responding in Spanish
