Connected Parenting

For parents who want to learn how to transform conflicts and power struggles into opportunities for building connection and trust with their children. As parents we want to have a good relationship with our children and do every thing we can to help them thrive. This sounds simple, but with the stresses and strains of modern day living, it can be difficult to live up to being the kind of parent we want to be. Sometimes we get overwhelmed and frustrated and act in ways we don't enjoy. We can't see how to do it differently and end up feeling angry or guilty. Then everyone suffers. I know first hand how tricky it can be to balance my needs with those of my daughter. I've worked hard to explore how I can do things differently, to maintain a loving relationship and work with my daughter to get the best outcomes for both of us, even when things are difficult. During the six week course you will learn how to: see behaviours in a new way that develops understanding and empathy pay attention to your own needs so you are more resourced to hear your children's transform habitual responses into understanding and connection work with you children to find solutions that work for everyone. There will also be an opportunity to set up support systems so you can continue to connect with other parents and support each other to continue with connected parenting once you have completed the course. The course will run from 10am-12pm over six Monday mornings from November 14th to December 19th. You may bring your pre-school children with you (please let us know if you will be bringing children so we can prepare for them. The children will be in the same room as us and we will try and have someone to support them while you learn. They are also welcome to stay with you while you learn) The cost is £20 per session, £120 for the full course. £50 deposit per person payable at time of booking. 10% discount for couples booking together.
