I work with parents/carers to support children’s development through an early intervention programme in their homes. I interact with children in a setting where they feel safe and are most comfortable playing and engaging with us. The sessions last 45 minutes and I explain parents the principles of Floortime so that they can continue with the Floortime interactions whenever it is possible. Sessions can take place as often as parents/carers want but it is important for parents to try and play with their children following the guidelines provided by the Floortime specialist, rather than relying upon the sessions alone.

It is important to ensure that school staff understand the child’s difficulties and needs, so that they can be supported as effectively as possible in the educational setting. I can provide Floortime sessions at schools and nurseries upon an institution’s approval. I am DBS checked. If needed, I am always happy to speak with teachers and SENCo’s to educate staff and discuss appropriate strategies and how they can be best implemented.
