Bespoke service
Tailor made support can be developed in a range of formats on any topic to suit the specific requirements of your employees.
Parent clinics
This provides working parents with the opportunity to have one-to-one confidential time with an ‘expert’ to address any issues or concerns about their child. Parents submit their questions in advance and have 25-30 minute slots either onsite or over the phone. This offering is extremely popular and slots are usually filled within a few hours.
Examples of typical topics include:
- Improving the morning/bedtime routine
- Coping with whining
- Teaching study skills
- Manners and respect
- Assessing my child’s ability
- Learning difficulties
- Non co-operation
- Screen time
- Improving my child’s attitude
- My child hates writing
- Aggressive behaviour
- Friendships
Videos
For a broader global reach, we provide short videos covering similar content to our seminars, webinars & transition workshops.
Resources
Articles, vlogs, blogs, website recommendations and book lists to share on the company’s intranet or internal networking pages.
