Testimonial
"Thank you so much for the fantastic training on Friday. We got so much from it and can see now how the children in our setting are massively impacted by developmental trauma. Furthermore, I thoroughly enjoyed our follow up meeting this morning, and already can’t wait to meet with you again. Thank you so much for listening and being so incredibly supportive and non-judgemental, it made talking to you incredibly easy and comfortable!"
