♥️ Support for schools and childcare settings in Sussex ♥️
We understand that explaining miscarriage, stillbirth or neonatal death to children can feel like a minefield of questions.
Worries and concerns of getting it right, what not to say or how to say it & how to support children and families in the best possible way.
Have you supported a child through the days, weeks and months after their baby sibling(s) has died? We truly hope that you never need to but it is always important to be prepared.
It can feel like a minefield for practitioners and settings and we want to help streamline this for you.
You can find yourself asking-
♥️Where do I look for resources?
♥️What kind of things might help?
♥️How do I start the conversation?
By signing up for our funded Sibling Support resource pack- You are pledging to provide the best support to those children that you possibly can.
You are pledging to reach out to us and ask any questions or guidance, signposting or support. There is more information in the pack.
Our Resource pack contains beautifully written books that have been written with care, understanding and the child or sibling at the heart of each book.
There are some helpful FAQ and explainations of how to answer these kinds of questions with honesty and authenticity.
