Laughter is quite often the very best way forward for us all. Share a joke with your child (maybe find a better one than this!)

The night before a new beginning is daunting and worrisome for us all. Breathe deep, imagine your favourite place, favourite smell and allow yourself to melt into a happy sleep. New classes, teachers, schools and routines won't be new forever and will soon be the new normal. I wish all those with a new beginning the best of luck and the power to breathe deeply and approach challenges with a positive can do attitude. You can do it!

'Where do I go?' 'I might catch Covid. ' 'I havn't done enough home learning. ' 'I like being at home with dad.' 'I've forgotten what to do.' 'Will we be able to play football?' 'What if I've forgotten everything?'
As the start of a new academic year nears these are some of the questions I have been asked by young people. We have spent time exploring the questions, worries and the feelings they evoke which has led to the children feeling valued and comfortable with their own thoughts.
Support your child by actively listening to them and focusing on their worries, not yours. It's a tricky time for everyone!
Get in touch for more information about how I can help.

All of a sudden the school holidays are upon us and we have time to think and reflect on the last half term of homeschooling or for some a different kind of school.
Many children are becoming anxious about September; unsure how school routines will be; if they have done enough work at home; if their friends will still be their friends and what is happening with Covid 19.
Please get in touch if I can help support emotionally or academically in the Swanage/Corfe area.

Your child is enough. Play with them, work with them, be in the moment with them (no screens to distract you) and let them know they are enough. Laugh together and you will also know you are enough.

In these unusual times, we all have unanswered questions, especially our children. Listen to them, laugh with them and enjoy them!
