Do you want to get to know and understand your child better?

Tuning in to Kids will show you how to develop your emotional connection between you and your kids.

Specifically focusing on the developmental needs of kids, integrating a greater focus on acceptance/empathy, and helping parents and carers to manage their own responses when kids reject or push them away as the young person seeks greater autonomy.

The aim of this workshop is for adults to:

  • Identify, label, and understand their own emotions
  • Successfully use emotions during social interactions
  • Use emotional awareness to guide oneself when solving problems and with conflict
  • Deal with frustrations and be able to wait to get what they want
  • Keep distress from overwhelming the ability to think
  • Be in control of how and when to express feelings

Registration Essential.

Circle of Security (COS) is an early intervention parenting program delivered over eight two (8x2) hour sessions to assist you to become more aware of and responsive to your children's emotional needs.

Imagine what it might feel like if you were able to make sense of what your child was really asking from you!

• Understand a child's world by learning to read the emotional cues and needs.
• Support a child's ability to successfully manage emotions.
• Enhance the development of a child's self-esteem, resilience, and their ability to thrive.
