123 Magic & Emotion Coaching
ONE-DAY PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT
Equips you with the knowledge to teach parents and carers of 2-12 year-olds skills to manage their children’s difficult behaviour
123 Magic & Emotion Coaching is based on two underlying perspectives on parenting: first, that children can be taught to respond more flexibly when they are frustrated or upset and second, that parents and carers can be taught easy-to-use skills they can use at particular parenting moments.
The professional training includes role play, group discussion, worksheets and videos. This one-day course equips professionals with the knowledge to teach parents the program over three sessions and/or how to teach the tenets of the program in a few one-to-one clinical sessions
Each participant receives professional practitioner training resources including a manual, slideshow and session-by-session guidelines to facilitate parent meetings.

What professionals are saying…
“This was an excellent training day. It should be compulsory for all child and family health nurses. The day covered all aspects of our practice in a practical and relevant way.”
Jane Caldwell, Maternity Child Health, City of Wodonga
“Fantastic course that gets down to basics, using the latest research and principles on children’s brain development in an easy-to-learn way for families of all walks of life. Gives parents back the power to know how they can be their child’s first teacher with practical ‘how to’ solutions.”
Melissa Phillips, NSW Department of Education
“A well-prepared and delivered training course. You walk away with an in-depth understanding of child-parent relationships and types of responses to a child’s difficult behaviours, as well as insight into terms such as toggling and practical/theoretical knowledge on suitable graphs/tables which can be used to sort behaviours.”
