Irena’s training and support was specific and appropriate to each situation and as always, was approached in a caring, friendly and supportive manner. Her skills are second to none and I would highly recommend her to anyone needing specialist support in the development of children, whether it be working with families, adolescents or other professionals.

Facing behavioural challenges, Irena’s methods and guidance brought positive change within our home. Each of us felt more in control than in previous times and learned to understand each other better. The Behaviour Coaching empowered us as parents and helped us to establish boundaries and for our children to feel heard.

Irena has assisted us with children with behaviour issues and taught us how to calm such distressed children. We have always found Irena to be a calming influence in all situations. She is a very professional person who can always be relied on to offer advice and support not only to us, but also to the parents of the children with whom she is involved. Irena gives a clear view of children’s needs without giving false promise and is a voice for children when others do not seem to hear.

We have Irena's telephone number on speed dial and would have no hesitating in recommending her services to help any family.

Irena is hardworking, enthusiastic, challenging, confident and easily approachable. She has a clear vision while working with children needing her help. Her strong aim towards her work is always to empower the staff and to support the setting to work towards positive outcomes for all the children and their families. Irena has provided appropriate training for our staff team around behaviour and wellbeing.

Children experiencing all kinds of difficulties were a real challenge for the setting and me. Irena’s support was incredible to the setting, the practitioners and to myself. The outcomes of Irena’s support were really positive. One worried mum had help from Irena and said “Irena helped my child get where they are today”. Irena’s professional approach with the parents/carer’s is just unique; I cannot describe it in words. Irena you are always welcome in my setting.
