About Our Workshops
Showing Up for Your Kids Workshop Series for Mums and Dads
A FREE two-day workshop is delivered separately for mums and dads to ensure a safe environment which fosters genuine engagement and participation. These workshops have helped hundreds of parents who are navigating the child protection system to make positive life changes for the benefit of their children.
Participants work through understanding the child protection system processes and expectations of DCP. An experienced lawyer joins us to give insight into the possible pathways once a child has been removed and how to navigate the legal aspects. Participants bring along their own case plans document and time is spent collectively and one-on-one to assist in familiarising parents with the document and determining their next steps. This session also focuses on how parents can make the most of access visits with their child by making meaningful connections and understanding connection impacts from a child’s perspective.
Be Present for Life
When children feel loved, valued, and supported by their parents, they develop a sense of trust and confidence in themselves and the world around them. This emotional security helps them manage stress, build resilience, and form their own healthy relationships later in life.
The Be Present for Life workshop is a FREE workshop offering research-based intensive strategies tailored for parents with children on 18-year orders.
This workshop empowers parents to cultivate a nurturing and loving environment that promotes a healthy attachment with their child. By providing valuable insights and practical strategies, the program focuses on strengthening the parent-child relationship, enhancing emotional security, and improving a child’s overall well-being.
Circle of Security Parenting
The Circle of Security Parenting is a FREE eight-week program offered to parents who are currently navigating the child protection system. This internationally developed model aims to assist parents in understanding and responding to their children’s attachment needs. Through the program, parents will learn to identify their children’s needs and recognise their own strengths and challenges in parenting.
Parents will also gain valuable insights and tools to make informed choices that foster their child’s attachment security and enhance their parenting skills, ultimately supporting the growth and emotional well-being of their children.
Bringing Up Great Kids
Bringing Up Great Kids is a FREE four-week program offered to parents who are currently navigating the child protection system. This course looks into the child’s brain development and its impact on behaviour, explores effective parent-child communication, and addresses obstacles that hinder desired parenting practices.
Assisting parents to reflect on the origins of their parenting styles and imagining the type of parent they aspire to be, as well as emphasising the importance of self-care for parents and empowering them to better support their children’s self-esteem and emotional well-being.
