Preschool & School Adaptation Support

Prepare your child and your family for starting nursery, preschool or school, and for the first weeks.

Choose who you would like to work with

Every provider here is approved by ParentSide for this exact service and is currently taking bookings.

ParentSide checks a provider before publishing them, and approves them for each service separately.

What this helps with

An early childhood education consultant or child development specialist helps you plan the move into a new setting: how to prepare your child, a goodbye routine that holds, how the first weeks can run, and how to talk with the teacher. It is for a start you have already decided on; choosing the place is a separate service.

What happens

You map out the weeks before and after the start, build a separation routine suited to your child's age, and agree what to share with the school and what to ask. Some tears and clinginess are an ordinary part of settling in. Distress that does not ease over several weeks, or that affects sleep, eating or everyday life, deserves a psychological look; this service does not treat anxiety.
