Free online learning for all the family – Join our courses for parents of 0-5s
Parenting young children can be tough at the best of times and during this strange period in our history it can feel even more bewildering and stressful.
That’s why we are really pleased to be able to offer parents various free online sessions and courses — all delivered by professional early years experts — to help you support your child’s development.
We are currently offering three kinds of courses:
Being Together, My Baby and Me is a free online five-week programme especially designed for families with babies.
This online programme, funded by the Department for Education, combines advice on babies’ learning and development with post-natal support for new parents.
There are five sessions, each one an hour long, looking at a different topic with lots of opportunities to share and learn as we discuss our thoughts and chat about our experiences together.
Topics covered include:
- baby brain development and sensory play
- early language and communication
- positive mental health — especially by being outdoors (for parents/carers and babies)
- keeping your baby safe
- the importance of play.
