Event Type
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.
For this reason, Barnardos Post Adoption team would like to introduce a new four-week programme for adoptive parents to learn some basic strategies to manage their own stress levels. This programme draws on principles 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. 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.
Facilitators: Hazel Mannion and Karen McGuire, Barnardos Post Adoption Children’s team.
Where? The Sanctuary, Claregalway, Co. Galway
When? The programme will take place from 10am – 12pm on the following four consecutive Thursdays: 12th Sept, 19th Sept, 26th Sept, 3rd Oct.
