WHAT
PEOPLE SAY...
“Working through my supervision sessions with Hildegard has been thought provoking and supportive. Her calm manner, warm approach and the safe space that she creates led me as the supervisee to be able to be reflective and view my practice from a distance.
Thank you Hildegard”.
Diane Thomas, Senior Learning Mentor, Safeguarding DDSL, Sybourn Primary School
"As a former Primary school teacher, and self published author, providing workshops to schools, I have plenty of classroom experience. However, I recently applied to start my new journey, into becoming a Play Therapist. Joining Carefree Kids 2020 during a supervision session recently was very valuable for me. They were so welcoming. It gave me insight into real examples of how play therapy is being put into practice, and how valuable it is not only for the children, but also their families and school community. The impact of the work Hildegard and the Carefree Kids 2020 team do is inspiring, to say the least. If you want to get involved, I urge you to reach out to them".

QUOTES FROM
CHILDREN...
‘I don’t get into trouble now when my neighbour talks about bad stuff. I don’t want to get involved any more, I’m not even bothered. D’you remember when we started, I tried to jump out of the window? I was a lot younger. I didn’t know my mind yet.’

Feedback for clinical supervision by
Adam Bennett
Head teacher of Stoneydowns Primary
Whilst it isn't currently usual practice in schools, we do consider it best practice to support members of staff who carry challenging caseloads through regular supervision. Enabling our staff to maintain positive wellbeing and to support their mental health is a team effort and CarefreeKids2020 have been an essential part of that offer. A chance to talk with a clinical supervisor is a hugely valuable experience and offers peace of mind for employers too.
