Our first Nurturing Connections Café will invite us to explore a question at the heart of attachment theory:
How do we nurture connection with children while making space for our own experiences, emotions and needs?
The Nurturing Connections Café is not a parenting class, a lecture or a therapy group.
It is a welcoming space to listen, reflect, exchange experiences and explore ideas together, without judgement or the expectation that anyone has all the answers.
Books, research and professional advice can deepen our understanding of children and relationships. But there is something valuable about thinking together — hearing another person's perspective, recognising something of our own experiences in theirs, or discovering a new way of understanding a familiar challenge.
You don't need any previous knowledge of attachment theory. Whether you're a parent, foster or kinship carer, grandparent, teacher or someone supporting children and young people, you're warmly welcome.
There is no pressure to share personal experiences. Listening is just as welcome as speaking.
Join us in person, enjoy a cup of tea or coffee and be part of a thoughtful conversation about attachment, parenting and the relationships that shape our lives.
We look forward to welcoming you to the inaugural IAN Nurturing Connections Café.
Full venue details will be provided upon booking.
