Supporting Families 

At Moon's Moat Nursery and First School, we recognise the challenges that families face in bringing up children. There may be times when you need extra help and support. If this is the case, please do come and talk to us. There are many ways our school can help and support you and your family, as outlined in this leaflet:

Family Support

Lisa Sinclair is a Family Support Worker employed by school to support children and their families. This can be in school or over the phone. Lisa is in school every week. If you would like support from Lisa, please let school know and we will pass on your contact details. This could be support with bedtime routines, managing feelings or behaviour at home. 

 We can also make a referral for Early Intervention Family Support. This is usually for a set time e.g. 6 weeks in order to offer a package of support based on your needs. School can make a referral with parental consent, or parents can request support themselves by completing the form here:
