Does my child need any experience with horses?

No. Most children who come here have never been near a horse before. We start from the begining and I guide them through everything.

What if my child is nervous or scared?

That's completely normal. We go at their pace. Some children spend their first session just watching from the fence, and that's fine. There's no pressure to do anything they're not ready for.

How long before I see results?

Every child is different, but most parents notice changes after 3 to 4 sessions. Calmer at home, better sleep, fewer meltdowns. Some children respond even faster.

Yes. All our horses are chosen for their calm, patient temperaments. Activities happen on the ground and later on theraputic riding, and I'm always within arm's reach. Safety comes first, always.

What age is this suitable for?

Children from around 5 upwards, teenagers, and adults. If you're unsure whether it suits your child or adult person, ask me and I'll give you an honest answer.

Something comfortable that can get a bit mucky. Closed-toe shoes are essential. We're outdoors with horses, so dress for the Irish weather.

Do I need a referral or diagnosis?

No. If your child is struggling and you think this might help, that's enough. You don't need a letter from anyone.

Can I stay and watch?

Yes. You're welcome to stay for sessions, especially early on. Some parents prefer to watch, others join in. It's up to you.

I Know You've Been Here Before

You're weighing up whether this is worth it, whether it will actually help, whether you can afford to try something else that might not work. Most parents who come to me have already been through that cycle. Spent money on things that didn't achieve anything. Been left wondering if anything will make a difference.
