Hi, this is Janet Lansbury.

Welcome to Unruffled.

As some of you may know, the parenting approach I teach is inspired by the teachings of infant expert Magda Gerber and the non-profit educational organization she founded, resources for infant educators, commonly referred to as RIE, R-I-E.

The Rye classes I attended over 30 years ago with my firstborn had a

profound effect on my perceptions of babies, the art of child care, and life, really. And I had the

privilege of training one-on-one with Magda, as well as spending many hours at her feet, literally,

while my daughter played on her

floor. And I was able to soak up her every word. I cherish those memories. Over the years,

I've been asked by parents and early childhood professionals to explain and define Rye,

but it's such a nuanced approach. It's impossible, for me at least, to sum it up

in just a few words. So I thought, who better to give an overview of the Rye approach than

Melanie Lattigo, who is Rye's executive director. She's also a longtime Rye associate and currently teaches Rye parent infant and

toddler classes in her home. And I'm a huge fan of Melanie. I love the way she embodies the

respect that Magda taught us. So I'm thrilled that Melanie agreed to join me today to help

clarify and crystallize her experience with Rye and all the benefits.

Hi, Melanie.
