As a parent or carer, you know your child best.

You may have noticed changes in their behaviour, mood, or reactions that don’t feel quite right. It can be difficult to know whether it’s part of growing up, a temporary phase, or something more serious.

At Basch Helps, we want to reassure you:

👉 If you’re concerned, it’s always okay to seek support — even if you’re unsure.

Across London, the NHS offers support for children and young people experiencing mental health challenges, including urgent care where needed.

Supporting Your Child at Home

While waiting for support, small actions can help:

Create a Safe Space

• Let your child know they can talk to you
• Listen without judgement

Keep Communication Open

• Use simple questions like:

  • “How are things feeling today?”
  • “Is there anything you want to talk about?”

Maintain Routine

• Regular sleep, meals, and structure can help children feel more secure

Offer Reassurance

• Let them know they are not in trouble
• Remind them they are supported

At Basch Helps, we understand how difficult it can be when your child is struggling.

We can:

• Offer emotional support for parents and families
• Provide a safe space to talk

👉 You don’t have to navigate this alone.
