Tovah Klein is an Associate Professor of Psychology at Barnard
College and Director of the Barnard College Center for Toddler
Development, where she and her team study, among other topics,
children's social and emotional development, the influence of
parents on children's development, sleep and separation, and the
role of play in development. Tovah Klein is a thought leader who
has worked with Sesame Street, serves on the advisory boards for
the Ubuntu Pathways in South Africa, Room to Grow, the Children’s
Museum of Manhattan and the board of Hypothekids in Harlem. She
often appears, and her work is frequently quoted, in the media and
some call her the “Toddler Whisperer”. Her bestselling book, “How
Toddlers Thrive” is a must read for parents who want to learn what
they can do today with their 2-5 year olds to plant the seeds of
lifelong success. Tovah Klein is also a mother to three amazing
young men and has transformed for the better (I might add) my
parenting.
