Meet Your Contact Worker
Alisha
That's me!
Hi.. I'm Alisha!
I'm looking forward to meeting you shortly at our Child Familiarisation Session.
In the meantime, I wanted to show you my very special Holding Hands ID Card so you can recognise me when we meet for the first time.
I also wanted to share a few things about me which you can read or your parent can read to you:
My nickname is Alisha
My pets names are Milo and Jackson. They are Jack Russells
My favourite colour is pink and purple
My favourite food is pasta!
My favourite smell is BBQ
My favourite season is summer
My hobbies are tennis
Something interesting about me that I want to share with you is by the time I was 10 years old I had lived in the UK, New Zealand and Australia!
Well... that's it from me. I cant wait to meet you!
Child Familiarisation Sessions - Why do we do them?
Child Familiarisation Sessions are an important part of the intake process at Holding Hands and should form a part of children's contact visits. These sessions are the first time your child and the parent they live with have to meet your allocated contact worker. This opportunity to start building trust often decreases any anxiety a child has in the lead up to their first contact visit - which we think all parents would agree is incredibly important.
Join Jakki, Sam and Ben as they discuss this all important pre visit session and the benefits it has for your child as they commence contact visits.
Parents who have completed their intake assessments and have a child familiarisation session scheduled with Holding Hands are strongly recommended to listen to this podcast
