π¬ Ever wish parenting came with a place to talk things through?
Our Family Links Nurturing Programme at Abingdon Carousel is a 10-week supportive group for parents who want a calmer, more connected family life.
Together we explore things like:
β’ Why children behave the way they do
β’ The feelings behind behaviour
β’ Positive discipline strategies
β’ Encouraging cooperation and self-discipline
β’ Looking after ourselves as parents
The sessions are relaxed, welcoming and completely judgement-free. Many parents say the best part is realising theyβre not alone and sharing ideas with others who understand.
