Really enjoyed this course, Emma-Jayne is outstanding, really caring, non judgmental and inspirational. The course learnt me a lot about behaviours, what’s happening under the surface of my child but also what could be the triggers causing my child to react the what they do. I’m so happy I attended this course and happy I have the tools for life to be able to carry on what I’ve learnt in to the future. I highly recommend this course and hoping Emma-Jayne continues to teach this course to other adoptees for many many years to come. Thank you Emma-Jayne will miss you x x x
