Previous Parents feedback

  • I found the whole course really interesting and useful.  I originally did the course for help in parenting one of my three children, but I am using the tools to help me parent all three of my boys
  • Attending the course gave me a lot of confidence that what I was doing already was correct and my partner thought it was beneficial because sometimes we have different views so it’s helped us be on the same page.
  • I found the course really good and informative and I now have a better understanding of NVR and have started to implement it as part of my parenting
  • My home is now much calmer ,we now have less meltdowns from me and my child

If you are open to social services then you can’t attend this course.
