ACEs session: Core Knowledge.
Empower Your Team to Recognise, Respond and Reduce the Impact of ACE's
Service Description
This 2-hour ACEs session equips residential childcare teams to understand and respond effectively to the impact of Adverse Childhood Experiences. Drawing on decades of hands-on experience in residential care and deep expertise in trauma-informed practice, I guide staff to recognise the signs of childhood adversity and understand how it shapes behaviour, emotional regulation, and relationships. Participants learn practical, evidence-informed strategies to create a safe, nurturing, and consistent environment. The session emphasises both insight and action, showing staff why behaviours arise from trauma and how to respond with empathy, patience, and skill. Staff gain techniques to reduce the impact of adversity, strengthen connections with children, and foster resilience and positive development. Learning is validated throughout the session, and certificates are issued upon successful completion, contributing to staff CPD and professional development. Delivered remotely, the session offers flexibility, convenience, and excellent value, with one flat price for up to 10 attendees, making it simple to integrate into your team development plan. By investing in this training, managers equip their teams to deliver exceptional care, improve outcomes, and increase the likelihood of achieving an Outstanding rating. Staff leave confident, motivated, and capable of applying trauma-informed strategies consistently, while elevating the reputation, performance, and effectiveness of your service.
