Wanting to connect with other parents on Social Media? 


Here are a few recommended accounts:


YouTube Accounts

  • NHS Centre for Parent and Child Support YouTube Channel       "We believe the best way to help children is to work with parents. No one can make a difference like a parent can. All of our videos are parent focussed and are designed to help your children have the optimal development and wellbeing. There is something for everyone!" Jo Nicols, National EPEC Lead.

Facebook Groups

  • Claire Balkind's FAMILY LOCKDOWN TIPS & IDEAS    "This group aims to provide tips and ideas for families who are at home with their kids in light of the global pandemic. Being at home with your kids can be challenging at the best of times and so extra help, support and planning can make this uncertain time hopefully a bit easier!" Claire Balkind, as seen on last nights news.

Instagram Groups

  • The Centre for Parent and Child Support CPCS Instagram Page “cpcs_official”     "I love the quotes that they post especially this one: Perfect doesn't exist, what I am is good enough" Miss Cumming.

Next week's blog will focus on wellbeing.
