Kind Hands instructors are adults from education, health and social care. They are concerned with the physical, mental and emotional well-being of children 2-4 years and their parents and want to make a difference. Instructors may also work with children with special or complex needs and their parents.
Touchline Training courses are originally from the UK. We provide 8 hours of online live-streaming instructor training courses for individuals or staff teams. They acquire the knowledge and skills necessary to teach, through play, the positive touch techniques of Kind Hands.
The ethos of the Kind Hands programme is one of respect and choice. The training day includes theoretical and practical aspects and ensures instructors have the confidence, skills and knowledge to develop their activities. Instructors use the programme in children's organisations and the home with both groups of children and their parents, as well as working with individual families.
