Can My Child Learn Resilience?
Absolutely. Resilience can be taught. Your child can learn how to survive and thrive.
So many of our children experience anxiety, low self esteem, and a complete lack of confidence in their abilities. School is a place of stress or fear. They might worry about failing and push themselves to be perfect. They can become angry, tearful or withdrawn. They are unhappy.
It can be hard as a parent to know what to do.

Get to Know Me
Learning and Confidence Coach
My name is Eleanor Rickard. I am from Dublin and I now live in the North of England. I have two children, both at secondary school.
I was a secondary school intervention teacher for many years. I worked in a challenging school, and my job meant I worked with the most challenging students. With warmth and empathy, I succeeded in teaching these young people confidence and self esteem. I taught them the most important lesson of all, to believe in themselves.
My passion for the wellbeing of our young people has led me to a career where every day I am given the opportunity to change a young person's life.
