Parenting Skills for Foster Parents
Being a foster parent can sometimes be scary and challenging and you may not be sure how to help support your foster child's development and behaviour. The sessions will help you as a foster parent/s improve your role to help start a positive journey to parenthood. You will learn how to support your child/ren's emotional and social development.

I will help you understand how to cope when your child misbehaves with a trauma-informed approach.
