Ep 16: Talking to a child worried about Coronavirus (COVID-19)
Talking to a child worried about Coronavirus (COVID-19)
Season 2, Episode 1
Happy New Year.
Hello, and welcome to season two of safeguarding days! As we enter into 2021, we've rebranded and changed our look, but we're still all about the same thing; giving you the latest safeguarding news, updates and serious case reviews, all in aid of keeping ourselves on track with everything that's going on in the world of keeping children safe.Talking to a child worried about coronavirus (COVID-19) - Season 2, Episode 1
In episode 16 of Safeguarding Days, we're really going to be focusing in on depression, anxiety and mental health, and how we talk to children worried about coronavirus.
The way we're going to shape this episode is going to be slightly different and you're going to see this a lot in this new series, as it's almost going to be aimed a little bit towards parents because research tells us that whilst it's important that we as professionals understand what we can do to support children... It's also important that we support parents, in their approach to supporting children and young people, as they work through troubling times within their own lives.
If a child or young person is worried about coronavirus, there are things you can do to help. And if they're struggling with their mental health, there is so much that we can do as professionals to support them and their wider sphere of influence to keep them safe.
In this episode, we're going to talk through how parents/carers can help to shape support pathways; look at some of the signs and indicators of depression and anxiety in children; and talk about what we can do to support children and young people with their mental health.
