Tip 2


Tip 2: 'Seeing you calm and relaxed, helps me to feel calm and relaxed too'

  • Taking care of your own mental health means that you’re in a better place to recognise and respond to your child's needs.
  • There will be times when you’re feeling stressed, anxious or upset – this is completely normal. Take time out to do simple things that help you relax and manage stress, as well as asking family and friends for help when needed.
  • Remember that no parent is perfect. Accept that you may not feel calm and relaxed 100% of the time.
