So excited for the new Ripley centre opening January 2026 ✨
Over the years, we’ve loved supporting Wings with onsite training, from early years education to practical emotional regulation strategies, environmental adaptations, and conversations around the importance of early intervention.

We truly value community partnerships like these and the opportunity to work alongside educators and directors who are so passionate about supporting children’s development.

We can’t wait to see this new amazing centre in action! 🩵

🎄The holidays can be magical… and a little overwhelming for all of us 🩵
Excitement, late nights, big events, heat, and sensory overload can all impact regulation.

Here are a few tips from the team to support your family this festive season:

✨ Keep some routine where possible
✨ Incorporate festive movement and heavy work breaks (reindeer walks, elf jumps, polar bear crawls, sleigh pushes/pulls)
✨ Prepare children with visual schedules, countdowns, and simple, clear explanations for transitions
✨ Watch for sensory overload, during this time, there are a lot of lights, noise, new smells, crowds, and heat ☀️
✨ Bring familiar foods and comfort items (headphones, hats, sunglasses)
✨ Allow quiet time or breaks after busy events

We hope you all have a safe and joyful holiday season 🎄🩵
