“Thank you so much for these very informative sessions. I wish I’d found you sooner. I had some really tough moments with my children, but this gave me a fresh start. Sometimes it’s not about perfect parenting—it’s about staying connected, being protective, and knowing you’re not alone.”
On this course, we will share how you can…
● de-escalate situations through regulation and connection
● raise your presence and connection with your child
● prioritise behaviours and reduce the overwhelm
● hold a safe space for your child to grow and understand themselves
● start to weave in self care and self regulation
● and most importantly how to adapt it for your child’s needs.

Working with parents in a professional capacity is an amazing job to do. I absolutely love it. It can feel a little lonely at times though, particularly if you work by yourself.
With this in mind we’ve created the Connective Family Professionals' Network. You don’t need to be an Connective Parenting NVR Practitioner to be part of it but the support advice provided will be based on these principles.
The network will provide you with a safe space to get support and help, as well as learn. It will also give the opportunity to meet others, create collaborations and share your knowledge.
If you’ve completed practitioner training then it will provide you with ongoing support.
