Public Health Nurse involved in facilitating Incredible Years Parent and Baby programme

“I was very, very interested [in delivery], and a bit overwhelmed, when we went to the training because it was completely out of our comfort zone. As a Public Health Nurse, you are all the time giving information, trying to solve the problems, fix people’s problems, make it better, and this is a sort of a situation where you sit back and facilitate”.

How the Parents Feel about the Incredible Years Parent Programme

 

‘Amazing Support. The help and advice from the group was amazing especially the phone calls between sessions. I have really improved my bond with my children and I feel like my children’s behaviour has greatly improved’

‘Words fall short of conveying how grateful myself and my husband are, for all the guidance and support you have given us over the last number of weeks. You have changed our lives and helped us achieve a happy home for our child. I won’t say he doesn’t continue to test us, but we now have the confidence and the tools to help him through it’.

 

Upto2 Programme

Niamh Carroll: UpTo2 Participant

“I would definitely recommend the course. It has been quite reassuring and it is quite a social thing as well, I really enjoyed it.”

Joanna Pascu, UpTo2 Participant

“I found the programme really helpful because it helps me get other tips from mams and the babies get to play. My friend is pregnant and I told her about the course, she thinks it is a great idea and she is going to join up now too.”

 

 

The Changing Lives Initiative parental perspective

‘It was great to see my child for the great little man he is, to be able to understand him better. It was great to see that you’re not on your own, that there are other parents who struggle as well. It was great to make new friends and have a laugh and be able to help, when you could. I will miss the programme when it’s over.’
