In-Home Parent & Caregiver Coaching provides practical, individualized support for parents and caregivers who are looking for help understanding and responding to their child's behaviour.

Rather than simply talking about strategies, a Child and Youth Worker meets with you in your home, where everyday routines, transitions and challenging moments actually happen. This allows support to be tailored to your child, your family and the situations you are navigating.

What does support look like?

The Child and Youth Worker works alongside parents and caregivers to better understand what may be contributing to challenging behaviours and to develop practical strategies that can be used in everyday family life.

Support may include:

• understanding the function or “why” behind behaviour 
• responding to emotional outbursts or difficult behaviours 
• strengthening routines, transitions and expectations 
• improving parent-child interactions and connection 
• developing strategies for regulation and co-regulation 
• building caregiver confidence and consistency 
• modelling and practising strategies together in real-life situations 

Who is this service for?

This service may be a good fit for families who want practical, hands-on guidance and coaching but do not require the more intensive level of support offered through our Intensive In-Home Child & Family Services. Support is individualized based on the needs and goals of each family.
