When families and schools work together, children thrive. 🌱

Advocacy means sharing insights, asking questions, and building a plan that supports your child’s learning and wellbeing.

Our tips focus on communication, clarity, and collaboration, because every child deserves the right supports at the right time. 📚🤍

Back to school already?!?

Sending our love and support to all families and kiddos who may be starting their schooling journey in the coming weeks, or simply just getting through another year, we see you all!!🫡

As we head back to school, small supports make a big difference 🍎

Consistent routines, visual schedules, and lots of connection. Let’s set our kids up for success this term! ✨📘

Its nearly back to school season!!! 📚

Transitioning to school can feel big for our little ones; but reading books together can make it feel easier (and fun!). Reading stories about starting school helps kids imagine what’s coming, ease worries, and build excitement.✨

Our top picks:
🍎 First Day by Andrew Daddo
🍎 Going to School by Rosse Blake
🍎 The Pigeon Has to Go to School! by Mo Willems
🍎 Starting School by Jane Godwin

Quick Tips to Make Reading Enjoyable:
👍🏼Let them choose: Give your child a say in which book to read.
🤹Act it out: Use voices or role-play scenes together.
🤗Connect to real life: Pause and ask, “What do you think your first day will be like?”
🍰Keep it short & sweet: A few pages at bedtime or during snack time works wonders.

If you don’t’ have access to these books, you can always search their read aloud versions online!
