Description
Ingfield Manor School for Parents is a unique service for families of babies and young children from birth to 5 years.
The service works in partnership with parents to educate the young child with cerebral palsy or other motor learning difficulties and allied learning needs. Solid support and practical advice are provided to parents within an encouraging environment, so they can play a key role in the teaching partnership.
The weekly sessions involve the children in active sitting, standing, stepping, walking, manipulation, communication, social skills, cognitive development, and self-help skills. Children are motivated to learn through the use of fun activities, games, songs, and stories based on termly topics.
The service delivers weekly 2 1/2-hour group sessions or 1-hour individual sessions as appropriate for each family.
