Supporting Your Child's Positive Mental Health and Wellbeing in the Early Years - Laois September 2024 |
Introduction
The environment that a child grows up in and the relationships that a child has with their parents in the first five years of life is very important to the development of a child’s long term positive mental health.
National Parents Council has worked in partnership with St Patrick's Mental Health Services to develop a programme to support parents to support their young child’s positive mental health and wellbeing at home.
The key elements of this programme are
• Meeting your child’s needs- how everyday life can impact positively on your child’s mental health
• Coping when things don’t go your way! Helping your child understand and manage their emotions, dealing with challenges
• Developing and nurturing your relationship with your child
• Resilience, how to support your child to build resilience
• Children’s Rights - Giving your child the opportunity to live a mentally healthy life
• Five Ways to Wellbeing
This programme is developed to empower and give parents information on how they can support their children’s positive mental health through everyday interactions with their child.
