What did you find most important to you in this training?

I found the training offered me more confidence around offering support around sleep to the families I work with. Also offering various strategies that can be used around sleep. I can’t wait to try some of the strategies in my own home. Participant Sleep with Disability training, Adelaide 2015.

The background information to sleep eg cycles, melatonin, current strategies used; resources provided very valuable. Participant Childhood Early Intervention Service NSW 2016.

A great explanation and exploration of various strategies. Honestly, I thought it was great! In the beginning I wondered why we were delving so deeply into ‘what is sleep’ but by the end of day 1 I totally see why we did and think it was definitely necessary.
