3. Flyers that can be emailed out to promote the workshops to your families
4. Attendance certificates and evaluations (if requested by purchaser)

3/ E-Learning 

Many adopters and carers are not able to get to whole day courses and even if they attend,  frustration can result when their partner does not attend. New learnings are harder to embed at home with only one parent changing their ways of being. Our e-courses once purchased can be shared with other family members. 

Parents are often left waiting for an assessment for therapeutic intervention. Our e-learning can bridge that gap, empower parents, create some hope, increased their belief in their abilities and improve parental well being which will trickle down to their child.

These subjects above are also available through e-learning:

Mission statement

To facilitate a fresh new way of parenting that enables families to enjoy harmony at home

“She used examples from her own experience as a foster carer and adopter, in a very appropriate way. I felt this helped the carers to feel at ease/understood – she gave examples of doing things wrong too and how she moved on from this too! I thought her style was very supportive but also, she was able to challenge carers thinking in an appropriate way”.  Support Social Worker

''Gill Tree`s recent training on Resilience delivered to Surrey adopters was very well received.  Gill was reliable, knowledgeable, engaging and able to speak from personal as well as professional experience which was highly appreciated by her audience.   Participants commented `I thought the training was excellent and I learnt a lot`,    `very calm and friendly trainer who explained things clearly`,  `helped me learn how to manage stress, respond to behaviour and spot the triggers.'  We would be very happy to commission further training from Gill in the future.''
