I help parents unlock their baby’s talking potential.

Research shows us that the way parents interact with their baby can predict language development and academic achievements. Parent coaching has been proven to enhance babble, vocabulary and conversational skills, with infants using almost double the number of words at 18 months of those whose parents had not received coaching.

Give your baby a headstart in their talking by joining my parent and baby group Nurturing Little Babblers!

Testimonials

I would call it ‘fantastic’. I would advise that it gives you ideas of where you child should be and how to encourage the most communication and listening from your child!

Christina (1:1 Parent Coaching)

“Even the youngest of the babies are really into the music and the actions - you'd be surprised. A lovely morning activity for Mum too 🙂”
