“We had been experiencing behavioural difficulties with our daughter over two years and Sheila was recommended . I would recommend to all the Dads out there to make the time, I found the course enlightening and engaging. We found the 1:1 engagement worked really well for us. Sheila was great at listening to issues, asking the pertinent questions, constructing reasons for our daughter’s behaviour and recommending parenting responses. Over a number of sessions, the parent/child relationship changed for the better. Through Sheila’s guidance, our daughter is now a very contented girl, whose behaviour has changed beyond recognition. This has positively affected the well-being of all the family. I would have no hesitation in recommending Sheila to any parent concerned around family behavioural issues. Thanks to Sheila, peace and normality has been restored and our relationship with our child is now a very healthy and happy one” - David & Dee
Why might someone need One to One Parent Support?
Parents seek one to one support for a variety of reasons, mostly to get support around their parenting skills. This service is tailor made to address your particular concerns in a private and confidential environment either at Sheila’s office (South Co Dublin) or by phone /skype at a prearranged time. Daytime / evening or weekend appointments are possible to facilitate one or both parents.
Do you cater for specific age groups?
Parenting toddlers / Teenagers
Yes. One to one Parenting Support assists and supports you in your parenting issues and the challenges you face. In a session, Sheila focuses on responding to whatever issue(s) you choose to address whether this relates to your toddler, child or teenager. In our experience, parents often meet with different issues at different stages. Whether this is a toddler tantrum or a challenging teenager the core principles of this programme remain the same. When we recognise the feelings that underpin challenging behaviour and communicate more effectively we improve our interaction and everything changes for the better.
What does the Parent Coach do?
Parent Coaching supports and encourages parents to use practical skills and tips and better parenting solutions. An understanding of our children’s needs and parenting education is key to resolution of difficult behaviour. We find better ways of dealing with behaviour and this helps to create a calmer and happier home.
Sessions can be of one or two hours duration and sessions can be arranged to meet individual requirement.
