Summing up

This chapter has focused upon what nurture is from a Theraplay perspective and why it is important for our child and for us as parents. We have thought about why nurture sometimes goes astray in family life and what Theraplay has to offer us.

The core thing to remember is that nurture is all about finding moments when you can offer calm, soothing and quiet care to your child at opportune or planned moments throughout the day.
