These groups are parent and child sessions and are aimed at children without identified difficulties or diagnoses. However, all sessions are adapted to meet the needs of the individual children attending and can accommodate children with additional needs.
“Brilliant fun for Harry. He really enjoyed coming and really informative for me. It has made us focus on getting dressed and undressed at home and given us lots of ideas to practice. It helped to find out what was expected of children going to playschool.”
“It has been amazing and made such a difference. Before the sessions started I hadn’t even thought about dressing/undressing and now my son does it all by himself in just four weeks.”
“A summary of these courses cannot do them justice because so much of it consists of things which, as it were, you didn’t know you didn’t know. Little hints and tips which make you think ‘I wish I’d known that before!’ You will end up knowing what to focus on and what to leave for a year or two. And how to be confident in knowing that you are giving your child the right level of encouragement in the right way. Abi is brilliant. She is very knowledgeable and is great with children. She is really generous with her time, her e-mails, her hand outs and recommendations.”
