Stockton - Cognitive, Social & Emotional Development Training Programme

We are providing a 2 year development training programme for a range of staff including health visitors, midwives, children centre and nursery workers, volunteers and social care staff around Cognitive, Social & Emotional Development.

This is a three day interactive programme to support practitioners to increase their knowledge, understand research and good practice from pregnancy to toddlerhood.

  • Consider a range of risk factors (stress, foetal alcohol syndrome, debt, substance misuse, Domestic Violence, Abuse, socio-economic factors, etc.)
  • Examine a range of theories, research and good practice in relation to neuroscience, child development and play
  • Explore activities and strategies to support families
  • Reflect on own experience, knowledge, understanding and skills in order to develop practice
