I need to support a 3 year old who has experienced a family breakdown. The stepfather and stepsister have left and she will not be seeing them again. It feels more like a bereavement than a divorce.


Any books to cover this?

I have written guidance for childminders supporting children with a death in the family - you might find some useful information x

Do you use your local library as mine are very helpful with recommending suitable books.

This is tricky. I remember reading a Huffington Post Article , not that helpful, but outlines some good points.
