Reminder to take part in the Early Learning and Childcare (ELC) Parent Survey

Dear Parent/Carer,

This is a reminder about taking part in the ELC parent and carer survey. The survey is for all parents and carers with children aged 0-6 who have not yet started school. The survey asks about your views and use of early learning and childcare in Scotland and should take around 15-20 minutes to complete. Those who complete this can enter a prize draw for a chance to win 1 of 8 £100 Love2Shop e-gift vouchers.

You can access the survey here: https://survey.natcen.ac.uk/ELCparents

The survey will be available until Friday 23rd May 2025. Please feel free to share this survey with other parents or carers of children that you know (e.g. via parent / nursery WhatsApp groups).
This survey is being carried out by the Scottish Centre for Social Research (ScotCen) on behalf of the Scottish Government. For more information about the study, please visit the study webpage: www.natcen.ac.uk/ELCparents

CAMHS Understanding and Supporting Your Child

Please find below and attached information from CAMHS regarding upcoming online training sessions for parents/carers about ‘Understanding and Supporting Your Child’.

All behaviour is communication is the saying, but sometimes it can be difficult to understand what children and young people are trying to communicate.  Hard to know what's difficult and how best to support them as a parent/carer?

Over two sessions we aim to support parents and carers to build a deeper understanding of their child's unique profile; their challenges and strengths. Following these sessions, parents will have an opportunity to book on to further sessions around sleep, communication, sensory preferences and processing, big emotions, understanding behaviour, and executive function.

Upcoming sessions to book can be viewed on Eventbrite https://www.eventbrite.com/cc/understanding-and-supporting-your-child-3782053?utm-campaign=social&utm-content=creatorshare&utm-medium=discovery&utm-term=odclsxcollection&utm-source=cp&aff=escb

Further information around other useful courses for parents/carers, including Decider Skills and Support with Anxiety and Worries, can be found on our website:  https://www.nhstayside.scot.nhs.uk/OurServicesA-Z/CAMHS/PROD_366303/index.htm
