Tools we Offer

STRATEGIES   |   TOOLS   |   WISDOM   |   CREATIVITY

Here at the Caboose we give you the room to access your own wisdom and collaborate with you on how to stay on track.

We have strategies (we like to call them tools) that we explore together to help parents navigate those difficult moments we all experience from time to time. The tools that we use are of high quality, clean and developmentally appropriate.

We gifts parents/carers in specific approaches that build on the child’s regulatory skills, having the child reach a better understanding of themselves. 

Frequent outbursts, inability to cope effectively

Does this sound familiar?

We help parents to teach their children skills to help them control their behaviour.

  • Children have the ability to recognise and communicate how they are feeling.
  • Children become more aware of how others perceive them when they are regulated VERSUS less regulated.
  • Children gain a deeper understanding of themselves and what they need to do to remain in control.
