Parenting support
Improve your clients' skills in raising their children in a positive and nurturing way
There is a strong family ethos in the Polish community. Family is at the heart of the community; its life is centred around children and their needs. Some parents, however, struggle to create a safe and nurturing environment for their children because they haven't got the skills and knowledge themselves, or they encounter additional difficulties in their lives, for example, domestic violence, addictions, or severe illness.
​
We believe the biological family is usually the best place for the child, and parents should be supported in gaining parenting competencies to allow them to achieve the best possible results in raising their children. Our understanding of Polish culture and different approaches to parenting in Poland help us create positive relationships with the families we work with.

THE NURTURING PROGRAMME
​
The Nurturing Programme promotes emotional health, relationship skills and positive behaviour management strategies. It encourages an approach to relationships that gives children and parents an emotionally healthy springboard for their lives and learning.
The 10-week programme was created by child psychologist Dr Stephen J Bavolek and is being further developed by Family Links, a national charity promoting families' emotional health and well-being.
It's an evidence-based course.
We deliver group courses in Polish, they are run by trained facilitators.
We provide this service online to clients across England and Wales
