Life Connections Ireland
Your children need your guidance to foster safe and healthy relationships, now and into their futures.
Life Connections provides vital services to parents and guardians to enable them to develop the skills to have healthy conversations with their children about important topics such as relationships, sexuality, the body, feelings and consent.
Our children and teens need support, education and guidance to foster safe and healthy relationships, now and into their futures.
We deliver these services through e-learning, webinars, 1:1 consultations and through in-person workshops and talks.

Communication, people and education and training have been central in Jenny's working life these past twenty years. In late 2018 she founded Life Connections, with a vision of creating a society where children, young people and adults can talk about and be in healthy relationships.
E-learning courses are a great way to learn the skills you need to talk to your children about relationships and sexuality now. From the comfort of your own home, you can navigate your learning at your own pace. There are also live webinars for course participants and the possibility to join an online community.
21st Century parenting requires us to nurture our children's emotional intelligence, so our children will grow into healthy, assertive, articulate, empathic adults.
Relationship education is key to developing this in our children. You as the parent/guardian are central to this education. It is in relationships that we learn so much about being ourselves and being with others.

Supporting schools in the delivery of their SPHE & RSE curriculum, we educate and host conversations with young people on the topics of friendships, relationships, intimacy, consent, safety, boundaries, body awareness, feelings, communication skills and critical thinking.
This is preventative work, to enable young people to make healthy supportive choices for themselves as they move forward from the teenage stage to young adulthood.
“Jenny created an environment of fun and openness within the group, which created a very active and enjoyable experience for the students.”
“I felt it was a safe place to talk about the topic.
“32 learners, Male & female and a number from different ethnic background, were involved in the programme. Jenny engaged the learners with several techniques, to keep it informative and interesting. This can be a challenge with 16-21-year olds. The learners were engaged in a topic, that can be difficult and sensitive. The tools/tips that the learners took away with them were invaluable. An excellent, professional facilitator and a joy to work with it”
