Are you finding that everyday experiences with your child can be challenging or overwhelming? Does your child find transitions, a change of routine, new textures or tastes, or new situations upsetting and difficult to adjust to?
As a parent, it can be difficult to know how to respond when your child is overwhelmed. This programme draws on principals of sensory attachment interventions (SAI) and could help you find ways of how to self-regulate, so you are more equipped to support your child.
Barnardos Post Adoption team would like to introduce a programme for adoptive parents to learn basic strategies to manage their own stress levels. The aim of the programme is to enable parents to provide an enriched environment within the home that facilitates the core components of successful parent child engagement – the capacity to self-regulate and to co-regulate their children.
The programme will run over 4 consecutive weeks every Tuesday morning 10am-12.00pm. (Tuesday 9th, 16th, 23rd and 30th of April)
Facilitators: Cristin Ingleis and Rachel O Leary
Numbers are limited and early booking is advisable.
