Quotes from those who attended last time:
Great format with enough time for input as well as group sharing. Good range of topics covered. Enjoyed the interviews with other families and have taken some of their ideas on board. Lovely non-judgemental atmosphere.
Good size group, excellent facilitator, ample time to discuss issues without ever overrunning , open and honest group, friendly atmosphere.
The different topics each week were very good. Each focused on a really important aspect of parenting. It was also good that the course approach was not to tell you what to do, but to let you explore your own approach to parenting
It was a very enjoyable course and it was good to meet everyone.
Thought the timing worked really well. Thank you for a very worth while and enjoyable course. Tuesday nights became a favourite of mine.
Thank you – a fantastic opportunity to help the process of parenting.
Group size was good. 8-10 allows everyone space to speak.
