Christmas 2025


 Season’s Greetings from Parenta!

As we reach the end of another busy and rewarding year in early years, everyone at Parenta would like to send you our warmest Season’s Greetings. We know how tirelessly you work to give children the best start in life, and we hope you enjoy a well-deserved break filled with rest, joy and time with the people who matter most.

We’re delighted to share that the January issue of Parenta Magazine will be out on 7th January – so keep an eye out for it in your inbox after the festive break!

It’s packed with expert advice, practical guidance, and fresh ideas from our incredible team of early years guest authors – all designed to help you start 2026 with confidence.

With more children being identified as neurodivergent, it’s essential for early years practitioners to feel confident in recognising needs and offering the right support. Yet myths and misconceptions remain common, and they can affect children’s well-being. Join our next webinar on 14th January, when expert speakers, Dr Joanna Grace and Zoë Austin, will host a powerful webinar that cuts through the noise and focuses on what truly matters for neurodivergent children in your setting. We will explore:

• Clear, myth-busting guidance rooted in real practice 

• Practical insights you can use straight away 

• A stronger understanding of how to support every child with confidence

Register today! 

Thank you for being such a valued part of the Parenta community this year. Your dedication, passion, and resilience shine through in everything you do for children and families, and we’re excited to continue supporting you in every way possible in the year ahead, through our magazine, webinars, How-To Guides and blogs on www.parenta.com.

Wishing you a peaceful festive season and a very Happy New Year!
