Recorded webinar - 17th December 2020

Worth Publishing and CourseWeDo host a webinar where we will be talking about attachment, trauma and .... DOGS!

 We look at the impact of trauma on dogs, and what enables them to settle and feel safe. We also look at what we can learn for our work with children and young people from parallel signs indicating that a dog is becoming stressed, and the best ways to respond. And we talk about dog assisted therapy and celebrating the amazing range of benefits of having canine friends, more than ever perhaps through Covid and lockdowns.

This is a unique opportunity to spend time with Dr Heather Geddes who has spent her working life enabling children and young people settle to learn, especially those whose attachment difficulties and experience of extremely difficult early lives first moved her to focus on their predicament and challenges. B.A.S.E.® Babywatching programme creates unique experiences for whole classes, whilst also embracing and supporting the journey of each unique pupil. This deceptively simple programme creates conscious and subconscious links for individual children and groups, because the atmosphere it creates that has a huge impact. Children (and adults) are engaged and drawn in by the process: it provides opportunities for sustained shared watching, talking. listening, and critical thinking; and it provides focus on the development of relationships through attunement and empathy. In gentle, unobtrusive ways, the B.A.S.E.® Babywatching programme enhances pupils and community experience and capacity in a lasting manner.

How can we free ourselves up again to empathise with our pupils and clients, carers and parents, our colleagues, our community and ourselves?
