intervention to hundreds of children and their families across the
early and school years age range. Sally continually strives to
ensure a seamless service with high-quality intervention and
communications across the health visiting and school nurse

to parents' strengths, and supporting the parent to identify how
they can build on or transfer their skills to best support the
development of their child. Parental feedback is always positive

assessment.
