Biography
Raelene Ostberg started out as a stressed parent, making mistakes and struggling to care for her feisty toddler. Thankfully, after over fifteen years in toddler classrooms at Early Childhood Family Education and an extensive education at the University of Minnesota, Raelene was able to amass a toolbox full of numerous toddler guidance strategies that worked wonders with these little humans (and entertaining real-life stories to help teach others.) Her Taming Those Terrific Toddler series has received rave reviews from participants and helped transform challenging toddler classrooms and homes into fun and rewarding caregiving settings. Participants love Raelene’s energy, enthusiasm, and theatrical storytelling that bring proven strategies to life.
Raelene is a Motivational Speaker, Achieve Expert Trainer, New York State Training and Technical Assistant Professional, Licensed Parent Educator, Curriculum Designer, and Trainer Mentor. She obtained her B.A. in Theater and M.Ed. in Family Education from the University of Minnesota. In addition to her toddler topics, Raelene specializes in working with challenging behaviors, promoting self-control, collaborating with families, and reducing caregiver burnout. To date, Raelene has entertained and inspired thousands of early childhood professionals and the trainers and leaders who support them.
