Don't take out word for it! Here is what our students say:

"Your course was lighthearted but full of content and it was great to be able to ask questions about our children. All of it was valuable "

"Gill’s workshop was really helpful, instructive and entertaining. Our adopters went away with lots of practical ideas for helping their children and are already seeing a difference.”Many thanks- we look forward to seeing you again later in the year with another group!"

"‘Very insightful. Allowed me to see that some of my children’s behaviour is them seeking sensory stuff. Lots of very practical things to do to help my children develop. That there is something that will help no matter what age. Thank you very much for sharing some of your person examples – it was very helpful.’"

"As a relatively experienced adopter, many years in to a stressful journey, with a complex child, living with challenging, sometimes extreme behaviour, I wasn’t too sure what to expect. What could it do for me that the other numerous training courses, variety of groups and forums have failed to achieve over the years? I wondered if the course might be geared towards prospective or new adoptive parents, rather than the more battle weary amongst us. I could not have been more wrong! "

"Thank you for your honesty about what it’s like to parent an adopted child. It was refreshing and comforting. "

"Genuinely this really has helped me and my family. I have been able to easily access the site, log on and follow on from where I left off. When I did have a problem I telephoned Gill who talked me through step by step. What a lovely lady.When I initially printed off the work book my initial thought was “how may activities”?!!! With nothing to lose I set to. Prepared, I pressed play. Gill was very easy to listen to, smiley, humorous and more importantly understanding and honest.The course is well thought out, the videos are not too long, the Activities are simple to follow with great prompts and for the sheer fact that I had to stop, sit down, relax and listen, was a joy and not a chore.

"This course is very informative. Will definitely be using some of the exercise with my carers. This training was very interesting. It gave me a wider understand of how trauma can affect the children in our care"

Testimonials

"I thought it was superb. So relevant. There were too many useful bits to name them all. I have also made a conscious effort to breathe deeply and slowly on the School pick up. It was also useful to think in terms of will something matter in five years time. Finally, it was reassuring when you reiterated that it is not useful to compare our kids to secure birth children as adopted children are different."
