Supporting You, Supporting Your Child

Service Description

Parents today are navigating more pressure, more overwhelm, and more uncertainty than ever before. This free 4-week pilot programme has been created to support families who may be noticing emotional regulation, sensory, behavioural, or social challenges within the home. Together, we will explore practical, supportive strategies to better understand behaviour, reduce overwhelm, and build calmer, more connected relationships. Topics include: • Understanding dysregulation • Brain & body responses • Emotional regulation strategies • Reducing overwhelm at home • Building confidence through challenging moments • Creating calmer routines & transitions This programme is open to families with children aged 4–10, including those awaiting assessment or seeking early support. Important: Participants must be able to attend all 4 sessions, as each week builds upon the previous one. The final session includes a parent/child practical support workshop. Weekly Themes Week 1 – Understanding Your Child Exploring emotional regulation, dysregulation, behaviour as communication, and understanding what may be happening in the brain and body during challenging moments. Week 2 – Practical Tools for Everyday Life Simple, realistic regulation strategies to support calmer routines, transitions, emotional expression, sensory needs, and reducing overwhelm within the home. Week 3 – Putting It Into Practice Building confidence through real-life examples, supportive responses, co-regulation techniques, and practical approaches for challenging situations.
