My service
My approach is friendly, thoughtful and personal. Solutions are tailored towards your family's specific individual needs.
Developmental
stages
Child development doesn’t happen in isolation it is interlinked and therefore if you call upon me to help in one area, it will more often than not, cross over into another, where we can solve more than one problem at a time. This list is not exhaustive but contains the main issues in which parents require assistance:
Sleep* – help in establishing good routines and structures which will aid rest and sleep.
Promoting positive behaviour – strategies to encourage positive behaviour including advice on setting age-appropriate boundaries, tackling negative behaviour and modelling positive behaviour.
Play experiences – ideas on both free play and adult led activities. These are designed to assist in all areas of your child’s development from birth to pre-school.
Potty training – individual tailored programs to aid a smooth progression from nappies to potty and toilet.
Fussy eaters – tips to encourage fun and stress-free mealtimes
*Night nanny service available on request by special appointment
