PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT & CONSULTANCY
Evidence-based, heart-led learning for early childhood professionals
We’re always grateful to hear how our workshops and coaching sessions land with educators, and the message we receive most often is beautifully consistent: they want more.
As one centre shared,
“Our team’s main request after Siobhan's visit was to have her back again.”
​
Feedback like this reminds us that when educators feel supported, seen and equipped with practical, research-informed strategies, the ripple effects reach every child in their care.
EMPOWERING EDUCATORS ACROSS GREATER BRISBANE
Our workshops and training sessions are customised to address common challenges faced by educators, including:
​
-
Emotional development and regulation
-
Attachment and building secure relationships
-
Behaviour management strategies
-
Play-based learning and its benefits
-
Supporting educator and child mental health and wellbeing
-
Enhancing educator confidence and skills
​
We also offer on-the-floor coaching to support educators in real time as they implement these ideas within their own environments. Coaching sessions focus on responsive practice, relationship building and practical strategies that fit the rhythms of each room. This support helps teams translate learning into meaningful change for children and educators alike.
