What we offer
We use our specialist training to offer guidance and advice to help parents and practitioners explore and understand children and young people’s behaviour.
All ages bring their own challenges – from the baby who won’t sleep to the teenager struggling to deal with exam stress. We are all different so we provide specific strategies that adapt and work for each individual. We have experience in supporting many issues including:
- Challenging behaviour
- Overwhelming feelings and emotions
- Sleeping concerns
- Eating issues
- Anger and aggression
- Anxiety and stress
- Additional needs
- Friendships and family relationships
- Life events such as bereavement and divorce
- Rebellion and defiance

Testimonials
I was extremely happy with their services and assistance, helping my children to come to terms with our separation and pending divorce. They were recommended to me by another family and I would highly recommend them.
Fantastic course content, fantastic facilitators. Acceptance, understanding, support from rest of group and facilitators. Tips and techniques I wouldn’t have thought of. BRILLIANT
A great fun course, very informative, interesting and helped me review my setting, my practice and what I need to change.
Good communication between course tutors and participants and run at the right pace. Tutors were knowledgeable and able to give different perspectives.
