About Rachel:

I work with parents of young children who want to cut back their children’s screen time, but are feeling stuck on how to begin.

If you are ready to reduce the time your children spend on screens, then I can help you make a plan, set up your home for play, and coach you through the hard times… so your kids will grow up calmer, healthier and thriving through play.

Testimonials

“Rachel has really dealt with the heart of the problem in many modern households. Take away screen time and our children’s lives became richer and fuller.” August 2019 Anon.

(This is a...) “fantastic, user friendly course. The course has highlighted the importance of reducing screen time for my children and has provided practical ideas on how to achieve this. I am now adhering more to the recommended guidelines”. July 2019 Rachel. Mum of two, Aus Registered Occupational Therapist

My story

As a Mum of four, I know the struggle of parenting intimately. I know the challenge and the guilt that can come with raising kids in this digital age. Surely just one episode of Paw Patrol can’t hurt, right?! Until it turns into 3 (or more) episodes and then all of a sudden you’re stuck in a rut of too much screen time, and your kids are melting down on the daily as they ask for “just one more episode Mum!”

I am a registered occupational therapist with a special interest in the occupation of 'play'. Play is how children learn, grow, and develop. Child-led, free play and less screen time is best for early childhood. I incorporate the latest evidence based best practice into my coaching and online offerings, so that time-poor parents don’t have to do the research themselves.

I am passionate about providing parents with support in the early years to balance screen time and play time.

In this together, Rachel.
