Parents

Supporting Parents

As children move through primary and post-primary school, parents often face new questions about puberty, relationships, sexuality, consent, online content, peer influence, and digital culture.

Many parents want to respond well, but are unsure what is age-appropriate, how much to say, or how to begin.

I support parents by providing clear, practical, and research-informed guidance that helps them feel more confident, calm, and prepared for these conversations.

Support for Parents Includes

Parent Information Evenings
Delivered through schools or community settings, these sessions help parents understand what young people are learning, why it matters, and how they can support conversations at home.

Workshops for Parents
More focused sessions can explore topics such as puberty, communication, consent, online safety, pornography, relationships, and supporting adolescents through today’s social and digital challenges.

Sex Education for Parents Online Course
Designed mainly for parents of young people aged approximately 11-14, this self-paced course provides practical guidance, reflection activities, and communication tools to help parents approach sensitive topics with greater confidence.

Working With Parents and Schools

Parents do not need to have perfect answers. What matters most is being informed, approachable, and willing to keep communication open.

My work helps parents support their child’s development at different stages, while also strengthening the connection between home, school, and young people’s wellbeing.
