For Parents & Early Childhood Professionals ✱

Rooted in attachment and relationship science, this package is what I wish every big person knew about “doing” orientation well.

A child starting in an early learning environment (think long day care) can have everyone, big and small in a heap. But it doesn’t have to be that way.

The Quality Orientations in Early Childhood Settings bundle is for educators and families. It will help get us all on the same page when little ones are settling in.

We don't need you (the parent) crying in the hallway, while you (the educator) desperately attempt to distract the little one who is also desperate, desperate to get through the glass door. 

It’s not just a webinar! You also get an e-guide, handy tip sheets, a plethora of additional resources and a bonus recording of Elise chatting to Fiona Weaver from Mama matters about what quality looks like in Early Childhood Settings. 

Think of it as a toolkit that will have you armed with all the wisdom to face this tricky and sensitive time with confidence.

Sounds good, right?

Everything you need will be delivered to your inbox instantly, including:

  • 1-Hour pre-recorded Workshop

    Watch at your own pace and build your toolkit of understanding and practices to nail it for the little people!

  • 30 Page Printable Guide

Inside you’ll uncover…

  • What a Quality Orientation process is?

Have questions? There’s a good chance I’ve answered them in the Frequently Asked Questions below.

I have over 20 years of experience working in the early childhood sector and with parents, guiding children with love and connection.

  • “After a traumatic first attempt at childcare that included a 'rip the band aid off' approach where I was actually lied to by the educators and resulted in trauma for my daughter and myself. We removed our one year old from care. I knew I had to go back to work so I set about finding a great centre and armed myself with as much information as I could get. The Quality Orientations webinar gave me all the information and resources I needed to approach the new centre with. Thank you so much Elise! our daughter is so happy at her new centre and loves her educators so much that she throws herself into their arms in the morning

    Jade

  • "Elise was so helpful in supporting us around daycare for our daughter. She discussed strategies to assist with drop off, how to get the most out of tours of centres and the standard of care to expect. She gave tailored advice for our daughter and her attachment style. She was kind, caring and supportive and I would seek her assistance again in the future. Thank you so much Elise!

  • "Elise!!! So many lightbulb moments – I can’t believe how much sense this makes! I feel empowered and can’t wait to try these ideas. WHY didn’t I learn this sooner?"

  • “I loved it. I will definitely be recommending this to lots of people and implementing the strategies I learned into my practice”.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • Hell no!  I get it – life surrounded by little people (even 1) is busy! That’s why the workshop is designed to be watched at your own pace. You can break it up into shorter sessions, revisit sections that resonate, and take it in whenever it fits into your day. Plus, the 50-page guide gives you the key insights in a quick-reference format (for those OMG what is going on here moments!)

  • Inside this bundle is everything I’ve learned from 20 years of working with children including evidence-based approaches that consider the uniqueness of each child’s nervous system and development. Every child is different and this bundle is designed to help you connect with your child on a deep, authentic level, no matter their temperament or personality.

  • That’s exactly why I offer a personalised email consultation! You’ll have the opportunity to ask me directly about your child’s unique challenges, and I’ll respond with tailored guidance within 48 hours. Think of it as having a behaviour coach in your inbox, ready to support you.

  • Not at all! If you’re an early childhood professional, this resource is made for you too! I know how frustrating it is when you feel like you are constantly putting out spot fires and all the “strategies” and “visual aids” you keep getting given to help dont work. This is 100% for you.

  • A lot of traditional behaviour strategies often focus on “managing” behaviours instead of understanding what’s driving them. In The Brain Behind Behaviour, you’ll learn about the underlying needs and triggers behind your child’s actions, so you can respond in a way that meets the need and helps to reduce the behaviour. This approach is based on attachment science and brain development, making it both gentle and transformative.

  • As soon as you hit “Buy Now”! You’ll receive instant access to the workshop and guide, plus instructions on how to reach out for your personalised email consultation.

When you know what the key to a smooth transition is, everyone benefits! 

It’s all there waiting for you.
