Using Play

This training in four modules targets Caregivers working directly with tamariki and rangatahi in care. It can be tailored to your organisation's needs. In-person training can be delivered in two half days, four two hour sessions, or online in four modules (silver and gold packages only).

This training assumes that caregiver support teams (management, social workers etc) have either taken the professionals training separately or will take this version of the training alongside Caregivers.

This training offers caregivers a chance to collectively experience playful activities together which can in turn be used when inviting tamariki and rangatahi into play. The material makes sense of challenging behaviours from an attachment-based, developmental and trauma-informed model using insight from the Neufeld Institute.
