NURSERY SUPPORT SESSION

For Staff & Parents

Dealing with separation anxiety and tearful drop-offs

Laura delivered a session to the parents and staff of ACE Place nurseries in Glasgow, focussed on understanding and supporting separation anxiety and tearful drop-offs.

Laura provided strategies parents and staff can use in conjunction to support children before, during and after a difficult nursery drop-off.

The session consisted of;

  • Understanding separation anxiety - why tearful drop offs happen and what is going on in the brain during these big moments.

  • Strategies that work - and the approaches that make it worse.

  • How parents and staff can be consistent to allow for calm and happy drop-offs for the child, parent and staff member.

If you would be interested in support for your nursery get in touch to hear about the various options I can provide.
