What is the Solihull Approach Parenting Train the Trainer?

Solihull Approach Parenting Train the Trainer is all about supporting emotional health and wellbeing with a focus on relationships and nurturing connected, sensitive and responsive interactions.

The Solihull Approach was founded in practice and all of our training is evidence-based, developed by psychologists, child psychotherapists, and practitioners. It is a way of thinking and working with families, groups or one-to-one that transcends professions and communities.

The Solihull Approach is also about understanding brain development to understand behaviour, communication and emotional health.

What difference will it make?

Solihull Approach Parenting Train the Trainer is designed to equip practitioners who wish to cascade, as part of their work, the Parenting Group Facilitators’ training to other local practitioners, so that those practitioners can facilitate the 10-week parenting group ‘Understanding your child’s behaviour’, or other Solihull Approach group for parents/parents-to-be.

The Solihull Approach and our network of trained practitioners are passionate about early intervention and responsive relationships supporting mental health and wellbeing. The Solihull Approach has a significant evidence base both quantitative and qualitative showing the improvements in the parent-child relationship, child prosocial behaviour, behaviour difficulties, parental anxiety and stress, and practitioner satisfaction.
