Mighty Minds: The Parent & Carer Workshop
Calmer Minds, Stronger Connections, Happier Homes, Teams & Classrooms.
This is a game-changing event for anyone supporting young minds—whether your child is neurotypical or neurodivergent, this workshop will equip you with powerful, science-backed strategies to foster emotional regulation, resilience, and deeper connection.
You thought you’d be the cool, calm, collected parent… so why does it feel so hard?
Parenting and working with kids can be the most rewarding jobs in the world, but let’s be real, it’s also one of the toughest. When kids are overwhelmed, anxious, or acting out, it can trigger our own stress, frustration, and self-doubt. We want to guide them with patience and wisdom, but in the heat of the moment, we often find ourselves reacting instead of responding.
What if there was another way?
What if you had the tools to stay calm, even in chaos? What if you could teach your child resilience, emotional regulation, and confidence, not just by telling them, but by showing them?
Welcome to Mighty Minds: The Parent & Carer Workshop: a transformative one-day event designed to help you understand young minds, build deeper connections, and become the steady, present adult kids need.
This isn’t just another parenting seminar. It’s an immersive, hands-on experience where you’ll learn how the brain works (yours and your child’s!), what drives big emotions, and, most importantly - how to navigate it all with compassion and confidence.
What You’ll Learn
The Science of Young Minds: Understand how children’s brains develop and why they think, feel, and behave the way they do. Emotional Regulation for Adults & Kids: Learn strategies to manage stress, anxiety, and emotional outbursts; yours and theirs. Flipping the Lid: Discover what happens on a neurological level when kids (or adults) lose control and how to guide them back to calm.
Choose What Matters, Do What Matters: Learn simple, practical strategies based on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help you and your child make values-based choices, even in difficult moments.
Practical Tools for Home, School, and Sports: Walk away with real-world techniques to create more ease, connection, and joy in your life.
Who Is This For?
This workshop is for parents, carers, coaches and educators who:
✔️ Want to better understand and support the emotional and mental health of children
✔️ Struggle with their own stress, frustration, or overwhelm in tough moments
✔️ Want practical, evidence-based strategies they can use right away
✔️ Care deeply about fostering resilience, emotional intelligence, and connection

Why This Workshop Matters
At The Village Health, we believe that mental well-being isn’t just an individual journey, it’s a community effort. This Parent and carer workshop was born from the understanding that kids don’t just need regulation skills, they need regulated adults who can show them the way.
This is your chance to reconnect with yourself, learn, grow, and show up in a new way.
Join Us
This is not just another parenting workshop. It’s an invitation to step into a new way of being with yourself and your kids. A way that feels calmer, kinder, and more connected.
Investing in You = Investing in Them
We know that signing up for an event like this is a big decision, especially when life is already full of expenses. But here’s the truth: this isn’t just a workshop, it’s an investment in your family’s future.
For many of us, parenting, caregiving, or teaching isn’t just about getting through the day, it’s about showing up as the calm, connected, and confident person we want to be for the children in our lives. And that’s not always easy.

You deserve this. Your kids deserve this. And we can’t wait to see you there.
