The sleep workshops are offered to parents who are struggling with poor bed time routines and broken nights sleep. Both of which have a huge impact on all of the family the next day.
A typical workshop includes:
- Introductions
- Discussion group
- Feedback question and answers
- Academic presentation
- School nurse – enuresis and diet
- Access to parent support referrals
- Reinforcement and positive behavior
- Questions and close
Discussions are always varied but common concerns covered are:
- Difficulty settling and refusing to go to bed
- Climbing into parent's bed in the middle of the night
- Nightmares and sleep terrors
- Consequences of poor sleep: Tiredness, poor concentration, disruptive behavior, emotional problems and poor school performance
- Problems evident at home and school
- Poor daytime exercise, diet and technology in bedroom
Ways to resolve the problems are communicated:
- How to create a structured routine, appropriate bedroom, control exercise and diet
- How to communicate with your child
- Importance of praise
- Improve sleep hygiene
- Reading and relaxation
- Use structured behavioral method
Feedback from the Sleep Workshop is incredibly positive; with parents responding it has helped them to realise they are not alone, it has raised the question 'who has control?', highlighted the importance of positive praise and reward to acknowledge achievement.
Dr Mayers aim is to grow these Workshops nationally and build a centralized online sleep resource centre for parents.
