About the Course

Social Brain Training: Discover the Child’s Instruction Manual Social Brain Training provides a powerful framework for understanding children’s behaviour through the lens of brain development and social engagement. Designed for parents, carers, educators, and professionals working with children, this training helps participants move beyond simply managing behaviour and instead understand the brain processes that influence how children communicate, respond to their environment, and connect with others. The training introduces the Social Brain model and the different “brain colours,” helping participants recognise how a child’s nervous system state can shape their behaviour, emotional responses, and ability to engage socially. Through clear explanations, practical examples, and real-life scenarios, participants will learn how to recognise different Social Brain states and respond in ways that promote regulation, safety, connection, and cooperation. Many parents, carers and professionals often wish children came with an instruction manual. In many ways, they actually do, we simply need to learn how to read it. A child’s “instruction manual” is written through their verbal and non-verbal communication, behaviour, and emotional responses. Each child is unique, yet they may share similarities in their Social Brain patterns with parents, carers, or even grandparents. Recognising these patterns can provide valuable insight into how children think, feel, and respond to the world around them. When adults learn how to step into a child’s shoes and understand their perspective, everyday interactions become easier to navigate. You begin to recognise how a child feels soothed, how they communicate most effectively, and how they best learn new information. Guiding behaviour becomes less about correction and more about supporting connection, emotional understanding, and cooperation. This training equips parents, carers, educators, and professionals with practical tools and strategies to respond to challenging moments with greater confidence and understanding. Instead of feeling overwhelmed by behaviour, participants learn how to support children to become more regulated, communicative, and socially engaged. Join us and discover the child’s instruction manual, and learn how understanding the Social Brain can transform the way you connect, communicate, and support children’s development.

With a strong background in brain development, neurodivergence, and functional approaches to supporting children, Dr Arini is widely respected for her ability to translate complex neuroscience into practical strategies that therapists, educators, and parents can immediately apply in their work with children. Samah Parent Trainer – Lived Experience Advocate Our Parent Trainer brings a powerful and deeply personal perspective to Social Brain training. As a parent who has walked the journey of supporting their own child with developmental and neurological differences, they have first-hand experience of the challenges, questions, and hopes that many families face.  After discovering the Social Brain approach and implementing the strategies within their own home and family life, they began to see meaningful changes in their child’s regulation, engagement, and overall wellbeing. This lived experience sparked a passion to learn more and to support other families navigating similar journeys. Through their training and involvement with the Social Brain community, they have developed a strong understanding of how the brain influences behaviour, emotional regulation, learning, and social connection. Their perspective bridges the gap between theory and real life, sharing what it truly looks like to implement brain-based strategies in everyday family routines.
