WHAT PEOPLE SAY
“The parent workshop was delivered in a professional and clear manner; it was very well received by parents and staff in our school. People felt the content was informative and gave them something to take away, think about and implement. I would highly recommend Parent Smart Learning and feel the work they do is so valuable.” Sophy Bland – Family Support Worker – Western Primary School
“Just wanted to say thank you very much for the wonderful workshop this morning. It was very thought provoking and informative. I hope there will be more in the future.” Parent – Western Primary School
“I want to go to everything they do!” Parent – Western Primary School
“I attended a workshop today and was so impressed by both the content and the delivery. Andrea and Alison combined evident expertise in their respective fields of neuroscience and cognitive behavioural therapy with a grounded and engaging delivery which immediately resonated with all participants. The atmosphere was at once welcoming and stimulating; questions were encouraged, and responses were illuminating and often extremely practical. The learning taken from the workshop was very much what individuals can do to make a difference in their own lives and the lives of their family members, backed up with sound science and rationale. All attending certainly took positive messages from the session. This is an exciting initiative and to be commended. I wholeheartedly recommend everybody to try the next workshop and enjoy not just the actual experience but also the ongoing benefits that it will give you the tools to achieve.” J M B Harrogate
“Having been to a number of events run by Parent Smart Learning now, I can honestly say I always take so much away with me. The sessions are so informative & really get you thinking. It’s easy, accessible knowledge that helps you support your family, reminds you we’re all human and doing our best. Being around other parents & hearing their struggles is reassuring and super helpful. Highly recommend. ” J.W Harrogate Grammar Parent
“Wow – I found the recent session run by Smart Parent Learning a total eye opener! The battles, arguments and meltdowns over tech, screens and gaming in our home are increasing as my children edge towards secondary school age and this session really helped me understand why my children behave in certain ways when they’ve been on tech and gave me practical ways to help manage it. The explanations of what goes on in the brain and body when we engage with technology were so useful and I’ve already implemented some of the strategies we discussed for how to work with, rather than against technology in a healthy way for all the family…” Emma – Course attended ‘Wellbeing in a Digital Age’

We are teachers and parents, between us we have 7 children aged from 10 to 20 over the years we have had our own challenges, we have often felt alone and frustrated. We have struggled to find the advice and support we need, and this motivated us to spend thousands of hours researching and training.
Raising a family is hard and we know that the wellbeing of children is closely linked to the wellbeing of caregivers.
