What have previous participants said about this programme?
I cannot recommend the Family Nurture training enough. A comprehensive and engaging course delivered by Alison and Yvonne, whose passion for nurture, and their knowledge of it shines through consistently. Each session gave us the opportunity to engage in discussion around the nurture principles, which expand on the neurological & sensory impact of trauma. Lots of time provided to engage in tasks that were thought provoking, and fun!
I have been running dedicated nurture groups in Drumchapel High for the past 3 years and the impact of Covid-19 on our children and their families is clear. After delivering online nurture lessons during lockdown and parents telling us that they benefited from joining in, I was left with the question – how do we now support parents with their social and emotional needs too? This is a strong focus for the school and as my colleague and I are part of the Parental Engagement working group we feel this training was the ideal opportunity to support us in engaging parents and empowering them with skills to support their children, themselves, and wider family. We are now ready to plan our first ‘trial run’ for a small group. Feeling very motivated!
