"Sure Start worker"

About: Retford Central Children's Centre

(as a parent/guardian),

I had a sure start worker (Emily) come out once a week to help me with my children's behavior, bed time routines and keeping my children safe around the home, I can not express enough how amazing she was and how much she helped me. When I first started working with her I found some things really difficult like bed times and my children's behavior I can now say I can handle these things brilliant thank-you to her help also I now know my children are safe at all times around the house with her tips and advise how to keep my children safe.

I was really anxious about going into children's groups at the children centres and with all her encouragement and support I now go to two children's groups twice a week AND feel comfortable. I felt I could talk to her about anything and she always supported my decisions and choices about I felt would help me be the best person and being a mother. Although I now go to groups and she no longer comes to my home I still see her at the enter and she's always up for a chat if I need it she'll never be pushy for you to tell her anything but she's a really good listener and will give you the best advice. I can not thank her enough.

Parenting can be a challenge at times and it is good to know that the Family Support Worker helped you to find some ways of establishing good and workable routines to help. It sounds like it has had a real benefit to you and your family now you are the one putting them into practice

Thank you for taking the time to leave such positive feedback and I will pass on your compliments to Emily
