A workshop for professionals in the community
Helping parents solve their children’s sleep problems
Workshop content:
Our workshops are firmly grounded in evidence based practice. We have been delivering training for health professionals since 2007. We have developed the workshop content and delivery to be highly engaging, interactive and relevant to all community staff working with families with young children experiencing sleep problems.
The workshop aims to provide a forum for the discussion and exploration of children’s sleep problems. Why sleep problems arise, commonly used techniques, assessing a problem and planning a sleep programme.
Millpond trainers:
There will be two trainers on the day, led by Mandy Gurney, founder of Millpond. All our trainers are registered general nurses, registered midwives and health visitors. Each typically has over 25 years’ experience as a trained health professional supporting parents through health and behaviour problems and is an experienced Millpond sleep therapist.
Workshop feedback:
Millpond has trained hundreds of health professionals both in our London and Birmingham sites as well as within numerous NHS Trusts and Children’s Centres across the country, many returning to train additional staff.
Delegates attending our training sessions are generally, health visitors, community nursery nurses, family support workers and children’s centre staff. All of our sessions are evaluated and the feedback we have received has been extremely positive with 100% of participants saying they would recommend the session to a colleague.
“I recently attended the Millpond sleep workshop and it was one of the best study days that I have ever attended. It has had a huge impact on my clinical practice, as I now have a better understanding of sleep cycles, preventing inappropriate sleep association and how to reset body clocks and feel more confident in supporting parents with children with sleep problems.” N Murray, Health Visitor.
"I wish I'd had this training as part of my Health Visitor training." H Hubback, Health Visitor, Cardiff & Vale.
“A very valuable study day; well structured, informative and easily digested. I will return with more confidence and knowledge.” W Saunders, Community Nursery Nurse, ONEL Children's Services.
