I priortise learning each individual families needs and offering tailored support, especially when it comes to sleep approach and learning styles. My expertise includes: • Sleeping and settling, overnight feeds, handling EBM/formula, introducing solids. • Bathing, nappies, administering basic medications (coloxl, vitamin D drops, panadol etc...). • Sensory, nature, musical, sport, and art activities. • Supporting milestones (rolling, crawling, walking, introduction of solids). • Excursions (museums, parks, gardens, story-time, farmers markets, Ceres, State Library Kid's Room).

I enjoy organising, so also very happy to help if there is an area or room that needs a fresh pair of eyes or special attention.
