Ever thought about trying hypnotherapy?

It’s a gentle, effective way to work with your subconscious and create real change, whether that’s easing anxiety, building confidence, breaking habits, or understanding yourself better.

Maddy offers hypnotherapy and would love to chat if you’re curious to see how it could help you. Send a message anytime 💬

🌿 Expression of Interest – Parenting Support Group 🌿

I’m thinking about trialling a casual parenting support group a relaxed catch-up for about an hour where parents can connect, share, and talk through some of the everyday challenges of parenting.

Each session, I may bring a topic and we can gently unpack things together in a supportive space.

✔️ No charge
✔️ Likely once a month
✔️ Face-to-face in Bordertown
✔️ Online option possible if there’s interest

If this sounds like something you’d like to be part of, comment below 😊

⚠️ Important Information that may be triggering

This is not something we would normally share on our business page. However, the safety of children and families matters more than comfort and silence has never protected anyone.

Recent global attention around abuse, exploitation, and human trafficking due to the release of the Epstine files has forced many people to confront an uncomfortable truth: positions of power, wealth, or fame do not equal integrity, morality, or safety. The people society places on pedestals, politicians, celebrities, influential figures, do not automatically share the same values we hold as parents and caregivers.

This can be deeply unsettling. When trust is broken at this level, it creates psychological conflict, grief, anger, and disbelief. Many people cope by disconnecting, dismissing, or avoiding the topic altogether. That response is understandable but it is also how harmful systems continue unchecked.

Here are facts families need to be aware of:
• Human trafficking and child exploitation are real, widespread, and increasing globally.
• Most abuse is committed by someone known to the child or family, not a stranger.
• Many survivors never receive justice, and sentences, when they occur are often minimal compared to the harm caused.
• Power, money, and influence have historically protected perpetrators and silenced victims.

Through our work, we support both adult and child survivors of sexual abuse. What we see repeatedly is this: survivors are brave, perpetrators are rarely held fully accountable, and systems often fail the very people they are meant to protect.

This raises serious questions for all of us:
What values do the people in power actually hold?
What influences are shaping policies, media, and culture?
What messages are being normalised for our children through entertainment and public figures?

We encourage families to:
• Stay engaged with what your children are watching and consuming
• Ask questions when something feels “off”
• Teach children about boundaries, consent, and speaking up
• Trust your instincts, discomfort is often a signal, not paranoia

We stand firmly for transparency, accountability, and the protection of children. Survivors deserve to be heard, believed, and supported, not dismissed or forgotten. The children who have suffered and lost their lives to abuse matter, and their stories deserve recognition, not silence.

There is a lot of information circulating right now, and much of it is distressing. Please take care of yourselves, limit exposure when needed, and seek support if this brings up difficult emotions 🫶🏼

Protecting children starts with awareness, even when the truth is uncomfortable.

1. Move Your Body Daily
Even a short walk, stretching, or dancing can boost mood and reduce stress. Physical movement helps regulate your brain and body.

2. Practice Mindful Moments
Take 5–10 minutes a day to breathe deeply, meditate, or notice your surroundings. Mindfulness calms the nervous system and builds focus.

3. Connect with Others
Reach out to friends, family, or colleagues. Social connection is a powerful buffer against stress and loneliness.

4. Limit Digital Overload
Take breaks from screens and social media. Too much exposure can increase anxiety and reduce sleep quality.

5. Build a Reset Toolbox
Identify activities that help you reset, reading, music, journaling, or breathing exercises. Use these tools during stressful moments to regain calm and clarity.

Holding your breath isn’t just fun, it helps kids regulate their bodies and emotions!

Add a little challenge: see if they can hold it longer than you. The laughter and connection that follow help repair the bridge to their thinking brain and mend any little cracks.
Having a toolbox of reset tools can be really helpful in challenging moments.

Telling a child to “calm down” doesn’t work if they’ve never learned how.
Self-regulation is a skill.

Mr. Detective and his friends help children understand their minds and bodies, notice when their “Detective” gets confused, and learn simple ways to reset.

The more tools they have, the more in control and safe they feel.

Big Emotions? Mr Detective and Friends are Here to Help!

Has your child got big emotions and challenging behaviours that are hard to manage?

Sometimes, children struggle to be in control of their bodies and there are so many reasons why:

1️⃣ Their brains aren’t fully developed until around age 25, so they need lots of tools and support to learn how to regulate.

2️⃣ The more they understand about how their body and brain work, the more in control they can become.

3️⃣ Teaching self-talk, and understanding the fight, flight, or freeze response works best when it’s kept simple and playful, that’s how they remember it!

4️⃣ If we as adults don’t understand these concepts, it can be hard to guide our children through them.

5️⃣ Big emotions are often a form of communication, learning to decode them helps everyone regulate better.

That’s where Mr Detective and Friends come in!

We make emotional regulation fun, interactive, and easy for kids (and parents!) to understand.

Because every feeling is just a clue and we’re here to help children solve the mystery behind their emotions.

🤯 Are you sharing the mental load?

You know…
• Remembering everyone’s birthdays 🎂
• Knowing exactly when the milk will run out 🥛
• Keeping track of which kid hates broccoli this week 🥦
• Remembering the Netflix password 🤯

Sometimes we don’t realise how much is sitting in our brains or how much our partner is juggling too.

📝 Write down everything you’re carrying in your mind.
📝 Ask your partner to do the same.
💬 Swap lists and see where you can share the load.

It’s not a competition, it’s a “let’s stop being one argument away from losing it over who is stacking the dishwasher”

Teamwork = lighter loads + happier humans. 💛

Absolutely love the work at Compass Children's Consulting! Such a powerful reminder to give children the space for self-directed learning, the results can be truly amazing! 🤩

Great work from one of our young learners at Compass Children's Consulting! This child self-directed their learning activity today, arranging letters and words on sticky notes, while still meeting the session's goals. This hands-on approach helped him meet his regulation goals by improving fine motor skills and focus, and addressed his cluttered speech by encouraging language organisation and sequencing. A fantastic example of how self-directed learning can be a powerful tool for childhood intervention specialists!
