​Talks for Parents and Carers of Young Children aged 7 and under
Being a parent of a young child can be both rewarding and challenging. These sessions are designed to enable parents to better understand their child, build confidence, and explore strategies to deal with some of the challenges caring for young children presents.
You will come away with strategies for limit setting, playing together with your child, conflict and also looking after yourself.
Parents who have been on this course remark that they are calmer afterwards and have a more positive relationship with their children.
