Supporting Emotionally Vulnerable Children in Early Years with Zelpher Ferguson

Please book by Monday 28th April. Please see important information below regarding information required by Monday 28th April to tailor the course to attendee needs.

Emotional dysregulation describes behaviours that don't fall within the usual accepted range of young children’s reactions to events or experiences. It may be seen where there is a marked fluctuation in emotional responses, unexpected outbursts and separation anxiety; thus affecting social interactions, group dynamics and relationships at home and nursery/school. Children demonstrating emotional dysregulation may have experienced early childhood trauma, attachment disorder, neglect or abuse. This may include children with Autism, ADHD or other neurodivergent traits that are diagnosed, or as yet, undiagnosed. ​The training includes:

• Signs of emotional dysregulation
• An understanding of detached emotional development
• Identifying the behaviour of children with high levels of guilt, shame and anger brought about by the actions of others
• The effects of ACEs within the child’s household that have an impact on their behaviour and learning
• Supporting vulnerable children, those in a state of hypervigilance, demonstrating unpredictable, high-risk or sexualised behaviours

Delivered by: Zelpher Ferguson, a behavioural specialist.
