This practical, parent-focused workshop equips caregivers with evidence-based strategies to support infants, children, and teens through immunizations with greater confidence and calm. Participants will learn how to prepare their child ahead of time using age-appropriate communication, reduce pain and anxiety during the visit, and provide effective comfort and coping support at the moment of injection.

The session also empowers parents to confidently advocate for their child’s needs with healthcare providers, helping turn vaccination experiences into opportunities to build trust, resilience, and positive lifelong health habits.
