Nurture your child’s decision-making and independence
It’s never too early to begin nurturing your child’s decision-making skills, empowering them to make choices and guiding them to become more independent and thrive in the future.
A child’s “voice” encompasses more than their physical one; it includes their thoughts, feelings, and preferences. Everyone has the potential to become strong, confident, and capable, and encouraging your child’s voice in decision-making supports this growth.
During this interactive session you will:
- Learn about a practical model to develop your child’s voice.
- Discuss the choices you currently offer your child.
- Take away practical strategies and resources to encourage your young child’s voice and choice, helping them build confidence and independence.
The ‘Let’s talk about…’ sessions are designed by families for families to discuss various topics and learn together. They are facilitated by trained parent-peer workers raising a child with developmental delay or disability.
This session is for
Parents, carers, and family members of children aged 0-12 years.
