Parent Training

At Dreamspire, we understand that parents and caregivers play a crucial role in the success of a child’s development. Our Parent Training programs are designed to empower parents with the knowledge, skills, and strategies needed to effectively support their child's growth and progress. We believe that when parents are actively involved in the therapeutic process, children are more likely to succeed and generalise their skills across different environments.


Topics covered include;

  • Behaviour Management – Providing strategies for managing challenging behaviours, such as setting clear expectations, positive reinforcement, and teaching alternative behaviours.
  • Communication Strategies – Teaching parents how to reinforce speech and language skills at home, including how to model language, encourage conversation, and use visual supports.
  • Social Skills Development – Training parents to implement strategies to foster social interaction, sharing, turn-taking, and building relationships.
  • Emotional Regulation – Helping parents support their child in developing self-regulation skills, understanding their emotions, and using coping strategies during difficult moments.
  • Daily Routines & Self-Help Skills – Empowering parents to promote independence in daily activities, such as toileting, dressing, and mealtime routines.

How Our Parent Training Works

We offer flexible training formats that can be tailored to fit the family’s needs, whether through one-on-one sessions, group workshops, or home visits. We provide:

  • Practical, hands-on training to help parents implement strategies immediately in real-life situations.
  • Ongoing support and feedback through follow-up sessions to ensure strategies are working and make adjustments as needed.
  • Collaborative approach, working closely with therapists, teachers, and other professionals involved in the child's care to ensure a unified approach.
  • Empowerment through knowledge – We equip parents with effective, evidence-based strategies to support their child’s development at home.
  • Individualised support – Tailored training based on the child’s needs, ensuring parents are confident in the strategies they use.
  • Family-centred approach – We work collaboratively with parents to integrate strategies into everyday routines, building a consistent support system across environments.
  • Long-term success – By teaching parents how to reinforce skills at home, we ensure that progress is maintained and generalised across settings.


At Dreamspire, we are committed to working alongside parents to create a strong foundation for their child's development. Our Parent Training programs are designed to provide families with the support and tools needed to help children reach their full potential.
