FAMILIES & CHILDREN

For homeschooling families & those with children in school.

We support children who struggle mainstream school. Whether your child has a diagnosis or not, we can support them to feel happy and confident with learning, delivering online support whilst they prepare to get back into the classroom or learn in the right space for them.

Many children, like our own find going into school incredibly difficult and experience anxiety, physical outbursts and deep trauma. This experience shouldn't prevent them from having a quality, inclusive education.

Our 30-minute small classes are created to be engaging and inclusive, helping learners to get to know themselves and feel safe and seen so they can thrive. We offer a free taster session for all children and if you'd like a call to discuss your child please contact us and we'll arrange a time to call you back.
