Develop your knowledge, skills and confidence
Designed for practitioners who work with families with young children, our training builds your knowledge, skills and confidence, sharing effective ways of engaging parents in child safety, using techniques that are easy to put into practice.
This includes explaining the links between accidents and child development, and specific risks at different stages, enabling you to weave safety advice into your conversations with parents, including at developmental reviews.
As the poorest children are over-represented in preventable accidents, our training will also help you empower vulnerable parents to improve child safety.
Join us to make the most of every contact with parents and offer practical, evidence-based advice on home safety for the under-fives.
