Our Approch
Big Behaviours—like meltdowns, defiance, or outbursts—are often a child’s way of communicating emotions or needs they don’t know how to express. Our program helps you address the root causes of Big Behaviours, rather than just the symptoms.
Here’s how:
Emotional Awareness: We teach parents and educators how to help children identify and name their emotions, which reduces frustration and promotes regulation.
Practical Strategies: From creating predictable routines to calming techniques like deep breathing, we provide actionable tools you can implement at home or in the classroom. Connection First: We emphasize building trust and secure relationships, which are critical for reducing Big Behaviours and fostering cooperation.
Modelling and Teaching Resilience: By modelling calmness and teaching problem-solving skills, you can empower children to handle challenges more effectively.
With our approach, you’ll feel confident addressing Big Behaviours in ways that build emotional intelligence and connection.
OUR SERVICES
Reducing Big Behaviours, Strengthening Emotional Resilience, and Building Connection Parenting and educating children—especially those with Big Behaviours, neurodiverse needs, or emotional challenges —can feel overwhelming.
Our Building Resilience Together program is designed to equip parents and educators with practical tools, emotional intelligence strategies, and mindset shifts to foster calm, connection, and cooperation.
Whether you’re looking for webinars, coaching, keynote speaking, or in-service training, our evidence-based approach provides practical solutions to support both children and caregivers.

I really appreciate these sessions. I get a lot out of them every time. There's always so many nuggets! Thank you, Karen.
Rueben Murray - OSHC Coordinator
Very informative, easy to understand how to maintain emotions, irritability and anger, understanding emotions to act more logically for example to calm down.
R Braund - OSHC Parent
Keep going, keep advocating - offering enough information to make it interesting and informative but not overloading.
Actionable steps to move forward.
