Time 4 Children

Time 4 Children provides one-to-one Emotional Listening Support for children who find it hard to express their thoughts, feelings and worries safely and in positive ways.

We have a team of Volunteer Practitioners who are trained to ’listen’ to children using Non-Directive Play and Reflective Listening to support Children.

Our workshops help parents or carers to learn the basic skills of reflective listening alongside non-directive play, to help them engage more easily with their children.

All of our volunteers have NSPCC training in Safeguarding Children, FGM and Prevent and are cleared through the Disclosure & Barring Service to work with children.

Usually 50 to 60 minutes. This of course depends on a child’s age. A 5 year old might only manage 30 minutes…..a 10 year old will usually have up to an hour.
