About the Nurturing Programme
The nurturing programme is a tried and tested 10-week programme that seeks to empower parents in building positive relationships with their children, encouraging helpful behaviour, developing resilience, empathy and self-esteem in themselves and their children.
There are four key areas that will be explored during the process to develop the skills, emotional well-being, understanding and confidence. These are: self awareness/ understanding, appropriate expectation, empathy and positive discipline which are the foundation of the programme.
We have two therapists who have been trained through Family Links to deliver the nurturing programme on a one-to-one basis. This makes it more specific to the needs of each family and can be shortened as appropriate.
The facilitator will meet with the parent/s to discuss the difficulties, and what they would like to achieve from the work. This will either involve the complete 10 session programme or tailored to the family’s needs.
Shorter sessions can be done bi-weekly for parents to have more practice between sessions.
