What Care Professionals are saying ...
This is a course that every professional supporting children and families should take. It goes to the heart of how to support parents as they negotiate family life in these challenging and fast-paced times. I continually bring this work to parents and students.

I am so pleased that I joined the Care Professionals Seminar. Having attended the sessions live, it was a pleasure to be able to experience all of the warmth and wisdom. We also had a wonderful group that I learned so much from. The material was delivered very simply yet one gets a strong picture of the message that sticks. I found this course so useful on so many levels. Thank you!
