Parent / Guardian / Carer’s meet up
2022-10-15 | Herts
We started a Parent/ Guardian Carer’s meet up, intended to give support, advice and sign post for any further help/ advice. From this session we learnt that it was very difficult for parents/ guardians to come along with out children, as child care is so difficult. We then changed this following that feedback to have a sensory stay and play group instead for both children and parent/guardian.
