Parental Engagement and Relationships – Relationship Building

CDI has been supporting parents in a number of early learning and care services in Tallaght for over ten years.
We have developed a Continuous Professional Learning Programme, entitled PEAR – Parental Engagement and Relationships.
PEAR aims to assist frontline staff and management of ELCs to enhance parental engagement.
Due to the ELC closures brought about by Covid 19, CDI are learning that many services are experiencing challenges building relationships with parents.

We are inviting ELC practitioners and managers to join us in a two-hour online training focusing on ‘Building Relationships’
