Description

At the Welsh Government, we know how vital play and childcare settings are for children’s growth and wellbeing. You create spaces where children can play, relax, and thrive – and you’re a key part of supporting their mental health.

That’s why we’ve developed the NYTH/NEST framework:
NEST = Nurturing, Empowering, Safe and Trusted.
It’s designed to help everyone involved in a child’s life work together to ensure they flourish.

Join our session to:
✅ Learn what NEST is and why it matters
✅ Explore how playwork and childcare settings can use the NEST framework
✅ Get hands-on guidance on using the NEST Self-Assessment Tool
✅ Hear real-life examples of NEST in action

Why attend?

• Discover practical steps to embed NEST principles in your setting
• Understand how self-assessment can strengthen your practice
• Connect with others committed to supporting children’s mental health

Let’s work together to make sure every child in Wales gets the mental health support they deserve – at play and beyond!
