Parent training

Your child’s success relies on your ability to maintain our programmes in the home.

Parents who understand how therapy is carried out and how they can implement our programme are also effectively extending their therapy hours. Even if they do not act as supplementary therapists, they strengthen our programme by supporting it and using similar intervention strategies during their interactions with their children.

We understand the frustrations and parenting challenges that you may experience due to the obstacles brought about by developmental delays. You’re not alone. Please get in touch with us so that we can find ways to support you and your family in this journey.

Therapy is only half the solution.

We believe that parents are vital in enhancing the efficacy of our therapy programme. Our 8-week parent training sessions are the boost your child needs to catch up with their peers and increase their chances of enrolling into a mainstream school.
