Helping Little Kids Through Big Fears (And What They Actually Need From You)

7 min•10 december 2025

Dr. Cathryn talks about why toddler fears are so common — and how to support your little one without minimizing their feelings or rushing them through fear. You’ll learn simple, big-hearted ways to help your child feel seen, safe, and supported, while also building the confidence they need to move through scary moments at their own pace.


We cover:

  • Why fears show up in toddlerhood
  • How to respond when fears feel inconvenient or confusing
  • What to say (and what to skip)
  • How naming and narrating emotions help kids process big feelings
  • Ways to empower your child without pushing them
