For Parents & Carers

Our courses for parents and carers will help you to understand your child’s brain

We work with parents, carers and families, empowering adults to help their children to be at their best and to reach their potential. Perhaps your child needs a little extra help; they may be anxious or withdrawn; they could be having a hard time managing their behaviour positively at home or at school.

Or you may simply want to learn more about their developing brain and how you can support them now and into the future.

So, if you want to find new ways of helping your child or teenager to be at their best whatever life throws at them, our courses for parents and carers could be just what you’re looking for.

Our courses for parents and carers will teach you about the developing brain so that you, your child and your whole family can all understand what might be going on behind the scenes.

Create pathways to independence

In our courses for parents and carers you’ll learn practical solutions and simple tools to help you to support your child or teenager to be at their very best, no matter what comes their way.

“It really makes you think about being curious – finding out the ‘why’.” – Parent
