Family Support

Working Together - A Team approach

All children and families can struggle from time to time and being a parent isn’t always easy. We learn as we go and sometimes, we need help – someone to listen and then support us to find the best way forward.

At Woodsetton we help parents and carers to get the right kind of help, when they need it for their child, for themselves or for the family as a whole. The aim is to help make things better at school and/or at home so the child can make the most of each school day.

We can help with a range of issues including improving attendance, emotional troubles, behaviour/relationship difficulties, getting ready for school, meal time arrangements, boundaries / routines and much more.

If you are struggling, especially in light of what is going on in the world around us at this present moment in time, please take a look at the information below and don’t hesitate to get in touch with us. We will do our best to help.
