It is lovely to hear from families who attend drop in's, workshops and support sessions who find the support offered by our team to be helpful in their parenting journey.
If you know of a family who are finding any area of parenting to be tricky and feel that they are alone in this feeling, please do point them in the direction of my poster, newsletter or workshops as the EIFA support can be accessed by any parent or carer without the need of a referral.
We have some very popular workshops planned this half term -
Supporting sleep
Managing challenging behaviour
Supporting feelings of anger
Sibling rivalry
Digital safety
Supporting feelings of worry
Pinpoint Conference
