“At the heart of the programme is the belief in the power of play, to strengthen the bond between parent and child and to promote a strong attachment relationship.”

Play Programme Leaflet

We have a fully qualified play therapist who volunteers once a week in the Creche! Play therapy is a non-invasive way of allowing the child to express their feelings in a safe environment. It is not directed and the therapist is there to ensure the child’s safety and only join the play if invited! Usually, the child receives 6/10 sessions but more if needed!
