​Parent Reflection Model

• 8-week course facilitated by a credentialed mental health nurse

• If requested in a group setting, a second mental health nurse is available to assist.

• ​With caregivers / parents we reflect together what is hidden in plain sight

• We support:

  • What they see / notice

  • We intentionally continue to notice, then reflect on how our children explore their environments and then we reflect on their needs together.

  • We celebrate what happens naturally and enjoy the strengths of the family and child parent relationship. 

  • We also provide a safe space to allow any struggles to surface.    We 'be with you', while you as the caregiver work things through. 

  • We delight in how confidence grows for the parents and caregivers we support.

  • We aim as mental health nurses to remain curious and for the caregivers / parents to be encouraged to explore and find their answers and insights to their child's needs.
