Overview
A ONE-DAY PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT for community, health and education professionals working with children and their families.
Help to reduce anxiety and build resilience in children aged 4-12.
The course is based on three underlying perspectives: first, by having an understanding of how anxiety develops, community and family support workers can assist parents to counter its progress in children. Second, community and family support workers can assist parents to take a preventative role in the development of anxiety problems in 4 -12 year-olds. Third, there are practical steps parents can take to develop resilience thinking skills in 4 -12 year-olds. Previously called No Scaredy Cats.
To become a certified parent educator, you’ll be provided with additional resources needed in order to present to parents. This ensures that our product is only being taught at the highest quality. There are several benefits in becoming certified: Certification is renewed each year at $69 for your first year and $49 thereafter. To remain certified, parent educators are required to complete a refresher every five years. Certification for the year is included in the refresher price.
Please note:
We run these sessions monthly on different days to suit everyone - feel free to pick a day/month that suits you.
Every five years, we recommend certified practitioners attend a refresher course. These refresher courses include the annual certification fee and updated practitioner materials! They are $189 incl GST.
What People Say...
"I highly enjoyed gaining the knowledge on how to support clients and community to support their children with anxiety like behaviours. As a worker I see the need for this training available within our community, but as a parent I was also able to take away further knowledge and tools to use within my own home. Highly recommend. "
