Thank you for registering for this event. We will contact you shortly with information about how to dial into the conference call.
WHAT: Phone based Hand in Hand Parenting Group for Parents of Pre-Teen and Teen (9+ year old) and teen children. In these Support Calls, we will share facilitated listening time with a small group of other parents who are also reaching out for support. These groups are a chance for you to share your parenting experiences, reflect on your own story, plan for the challenges of family life and have your questions answered about using the Hand in Hand approach in your family.
WHO: These groups are open to all parents of pre-teens and teens, although it is preferable if you have some familiarity with the Hand in Hand Parenting approach. If you are not familiar with Hand in Hand Parenting*, before the group starts I highly recommend booking an optional One-on-One consultation. This is offered for Support Call participants at a 40% discount off the regular price.
HOW MANY CALLS: You can choose to join us for between two and eight calls. You may be able to purchase additional calls once the group has started, depending on number of participants. We will email you to confirm the dates you said you wished to join calls.

WHERE: Phone based group conference call with Sydney and US based dial-in numbers, and local numbers available for many other countries. You can also join the conference call via your web browser. One-on-One Consultations use the same conference facility is you wish to download a recording for future reference. Alternatively, we can use Skype or FaceTime. You can find the local dial in numbers here: https://www.uberconference.com/international
LENGTH OF CALL: Plan on 90 minutes, but if there is only a small group, we may take less time. If there is only one person on a call, the call will be 30 minutes maximum. I will remain on the call for 30 minutes from the start time regardless of who is on the call.
ONE-ON-ONE CONSULTATIONS: Are available at a discounted rate if you purchase the Support Calls. If you purchased a consultation, I will be in touch shortly to schedule a time. Because of differences in time-zones, if you are based in the US, I can be available from 2 p.m. Pacific and 5p.m. Eastern (which is from 7a.m. Sydney Time). My timezone is AEST/AEDT (Sydney). You can view my calendar if you want to find a tentative time to meet.
WHAT TO DO NEXT
I have collected a number of links and useful references for Parents of Pre-Teens and Teens here. I recommend that you have a look at them before our calls start, especially if you are new to Hand in Hand Parenting.
Please add our email address madeleine.s.winter “at” gmail “dot” com to your contacts and check your spam boxes as our emails sometimes land there.
Please contact us in a couple of days if you do not get an email confirming that we have received your registration/payment and information about our mailing list, if you elected to join it.
In general, you will be refunded to the account you paid with. In some instances, you may need to provide bank account details in order to receive a refund. In some instances, the refund may be less a small fee charged by the payment processing company, over which we have no control. You should receive your funds within 5 business days in the U.S. (within 7 days outside the U.S.), depending on your bank, via the method you paid.
EVENT CANCELLATION: Groups need a minimum number. If there are not enough people, we will notify you within a few days of the event start date – so please keep the dates available until you hear from us.
MISSED MEETINGS: no refund is available if you miss a meeting. If spaces are available, we will do our best to include you in a later call.
One-On-One Consultation: If this order is cancelled by you at any time, there is no refund of the One-on-One Consultation fee. However, I understand that life happens, and I am happy to reschedule at a mutually convenient time. If you need to cancel please let me know 24 hrs. in advance, whenever possible. If we reschedule a call at your request and it is missed a second time, your original fee will be forfeited and you will need to purchase additional time.
I am a parent, and life happens to me too. If I have to reschedule the consultation for whatever reason, you can elect to receive a refund up to 22nd June 2017.
Alternatively, we can reschedule, in which case, the conditions above apply – I cannot refund, and if you miss that rescheduled appointment, and a subsequent one, you will forfeit your fee.
Support Calls: If cancelled by Event Organiser, you will be refunded for any Support Calls which have not yet taken place. In some cases, this will be less a small administration fee ($AU0.30).
If cancelled your fees will be refunded in to the credit card you paid with. Dates below are all in US Pacific Time.

*1 If you are new to Hand in Hand, I recommend that you have a look at these Resources for Parents of Pre-Teens and Teens. On this page, there is also a link to the “Listening to Children” booklets. I recommend purchasing them. They are aimed primarily at parents of younger children, but they will give you a thorough picture of the approach, which will help you get the most out of the support calls.
*2 In some cases for refunds, our credit card payment provider will retain a small processing fee of $AU0.30. We apologise for this, but it is out of our control.
