Child Support

We provide sensitive, developmentally-appropriate support to children and their families. Our goal is to help every child feel safe, understood and ready to learn and connect.

Child wellness support

  • Mental and emotional care for children using developmentally-appropriate methods.
  • Stable structure — creating predictable routines at home and school.
  • Escalation of concerns to social workers when safety or statutory involvement is required.
  • Educational development support, classroom strategies and liaison with schools where needed.

Practical tips for caregivers

  • Calm scripts: Use short phrases during upset moments — "I can help you calm down; let's try three breaths together."
  • Visual routines: A simple picture chart for morning or bedtime reduces arguments and increases predictability.
  • Sensory breaks: Offer a quiet corner, headphones, or a short movement break when a child becomes dysregulated.
  • Link with school: Share one agreed strategy with teachers (e.g., 'time-in' chair, quiet signal) to keep consistency.
  • When to seek help: If behaviours increase, there is risk to safety, or school functioning drops significantly, contact us to review and consider escalation.
