Parenting Toddlers and Preschoolers
How do I handle my toddler’s fear of strangers?
Stranger anxiety is common around age one or two and shows your child’s growing attachment to you. Respect their feelings and avoid forcing interactions. Introduce new people slowly, letting your toddler observe first. Stay close and comfort your child during social situations. Over time, repeated positive experiences help build trust and reduce fear.
