This FREE Time out for Parents and Carers course gives you the opportunity to take some time out in your week for you. It’s also a time to meet with other parents and carers who understand the challenges and frustrations as well as the joys of parenting and caring for a child with additional needs. This course is judgment free and a safe space to share and learn together.
The course aims to increase your confidence in your skills and abilities to parent and care for your child. It also aims to help the relationship between you and your child to be even better than it is now, to teach you skills and provide you with greater support where you would like it. We will be covering topics such as self-esteem, coping with feelings, understanding and managing behaviour, education and school, the wider family and ongoing support.
Kirsty is the trained facilitator who will be leading the course. She has two children of her own, both with additional needs which has provided her with a great deal of lived experience! She is passionate about supporting parents and carers and encouraging everyone to thrive.
Each session will be 2 hours with a coffee break in the middle. You will be given a free handbook for the course and everything you need will be provided....including chocolate biscuits!!!
The course dates are.... Monday 22nd, 29th Sept, 6th, 13th Oct, 3rd, 10th, 17th Nov
