Togetherness is a free NHS-backed online parenting support programme available to families in West Berkshire.
It offers simple, self-guided online learning to help parents and carers understand children's behaviour, emotions and development, from pregnancy to adolescence. The learning is designed to fit around everyday life and can be completed at the right pace for your family.
Learning pathways
The Togetherness learning pathways offer practical ideas and expert insight to support parents and carers on their parenting journey. Topics include:
children's feelings and brain development
managing behaviour, sleep and routines
building positive and connected family relationships
supporting children and young people through change
The learning recognises that parenting can feel challenging at times. It focuses on offering reassurance and understanding, rather than telling families what they should do.
