What to expect
An attachment and relationship-focused lens, where we deeply consider the role that respectful and responsive relationships have on everything that we do with young children, whether that be the routines and rhythms of the day, the way you plan experiences or document the program cycle.
How It Works
Online - All coaching is currently online for your accessibility. You can make a booking within the same week, its that simple
Pre Consultation - Once your appointment is confirmed you will receive a pre consultation form that will help me prepare for our time together
Afterwards - After every visit, you’ll receive a comprehensive summary along with a tailored, actionable plan and resources to help guide you forward.
Ongoing Support
For most settings, a single session is just the beginning. As you work with your team new questions and challenges will naturally arise, and I can be here for the whole process.
-
You may be feeling isolated, burnt out or stuck with what the next best step should be? You feel ready for real change and know you can't go it alone. You want someone who can practice what they preach and has the contextual knowledge to know what gets people moving in the right direction.
-
Common areas people want help with
Guiding and Responding to behaviour effectively
Support to embed practice that exceeds standards around QA 5 - Relationships with children.
Relational pedagogy - for example - Key/ Primary Educator approach, slow pedagogies, Circle of Security
Build educator capacity (Knowledge and Skill) to implement evidence-informed practice
Challenges around getting your team “on board” with your big vision. Resistance to change is common and expected. Sometimes a new set of eyes and a different way of saying it, is just what your team needs to jump on board.
Routines and rhythms of the day are not working effectively.
Everyone is feeling a bit Burnt out or Flat
