Along with offering direct support to children, their nursery workers and parents, our team also offers a consultation service to colleagues.
Consultation is the term used to describe a session where the practitioner requests support without referring to a child by name. These anonymous sessions can be helpful in situations where:
* a parent is reluctant to give permission for a referral to an outside agency
* a setting is unsure whether a child and their difficulties are an appropriate referral
* there are already many agencies involved who are focused on the child and their family, leaving the nursery practitioners feeling unclear or unsupported in their role with a complex child or situation.
