Higher levels of emotional intelligence have been shown to lead to better outcomes for children in education, health and relationships. It builds resilience to enable children to respond to challenging life events.
This evidence-based parenting course will give participants strategies and skills to communicate more effectively with children, improve understanding and management of emotions, set limits, solve problems and reduce or prevent problem behaviours.
The Dads Tuning in to Kids course will be facilitated by Ashley Taylor, a primary school teacher and also a dad. It will offer a relaxed and supportive environment where dads can share their experience of the challenges of parenting. The course was run in 2018 and received positive feedback, with one participant stating:
“My children are all starting to see significant changes in me and the way I relate to them.”
Such courses often use printing services to create learning materials to take home.
