    UnderstandingPractical StrategiesParent Community

    Parenting a child with ADHD is hard work. Bedtimes drag on, mealtimes turn into battles, mornings run late, homework ends in tears and small things can tip into a meltdown. You’re not doing it wrong, and you’re not on your own.

    Over six evenings, we’ll help you understand how ADHD affects your child, and give you practical strategies for sleep, eating, routines, homework and big feelings. Each week you’ll try one or two small changes at home, then share how they went with a group of parents who understand.

    Who It’s For

    Parents and carers of children and teenagers aged 5 to 17 with ADHD

    Families with a diagnosis, waiting for an assessment, or who think their child may have ADHD

    Anyone who wants calmer days at home and a better understanding of their child

    No special knowledge is needed. You just need to come as you are.

    SIX WEEKS · SIX TOPICS

    What’s Covered

    Each 90-minute session focuses on one area of family life, with practical takeaways you can use straight away.

    1. 01

      Understanding ADHD

      How ADHD works, why it looks different in every child, and why behaviour is communication

    2. 02

      Sleep

      Why switching off is hard, and how to build a calm wind-down routine

    3. 03

      Eating and Mealtimes

      Working with appetite, hunger and mood, and making mealtimes less of a battle

    4. 04

      Routines and Habits

      Visual routines, instructions that land, smoother transitions and rewards that work

    5. 05

      Study, Homework and Focus

      Setting homework up to succeed, short bursts, and working with school

    6. 06

      Overwhelm and Big Feelings

      Spotting the early signs, staying calm in a meltdown, and repairing afterwards

    7. +

      Follow-Up Catch-Up

    COACHING WITH Raiys

    How It Works

    Live, friendly and practical, designed to fit around family life.

    1. Join From Home

      Join by video link on a laptop, tablet or phone. We’ll send a simple joining guide.

    2. Small and Friendly

      Groups of 6–10 parents, led by two trained coaches.

    3. Hands-On, Not Lectures

      Short teaching, real-life scenarios and group discussion, plus simple exercises that show what ADHD can feel like from the inside.

    4. Practice at Home

      One or two small strategies to try each week. One small change kept up beats a big plan that collapses.

    5. Safe and Private

      Sessions are never recorded. Cameras on where you can, but it’s fine to turn yours off. What’s shared in the group stays in the group.
