Who I Am
Dedicated Consultant
I help educators, NDIS providers, and families — including homeschooling parents — create inclusive, play-based learning environments that work in real life, both indoors and outdoors.
My approach is practical, experience-based, and grounded in what actually works with children. I support adults to build spaces where children feel safe, supported, and free to learn through play.
I deliver workshops and professional learning for:
• early learning services
• educators and support workers
• NDIS providers
• parent and homeschool groups
I have presented at:
• Family Day Care Australia (FDCA) Conference – Melbourne
• Early Childhood Australia (ECA) Conference
• World Indigenous Peoples’ Conference on Education (WIPCE)
I also run on-site workshops for early learning services across Brisbane and the Gold Coast.
Available for workshops, conferences, and professional learning.
