We us evidence-based, trauma informed approaches to parenting, with a compassionate, heart-centred approach that always prioritises attachment first.
We combine this with something that is missing from a lot of parenting approaches – PLAY.
Whether you are a parent, educator or carer – we can all use play as a pathway to healing – to overcome the layers of stress, trauma and needs that prevent a child’s ability to access their inner, true, connected and cooperative self.
From the birth of a sibling and parental separation to teeth brushing and mealtimes, this approach to being with children will shift your thinking, revolutionise your actions and create days with children that can feel easeful and FUN..
In this approach, therapeutic play is couple with understanding your child’s innate functions for emotion release and creating emotional safety so you can support your child without the use of punitive discipline.

Talking with Hannah about my daughter was a great experience. Hannah helped me with some specific scenarios that had arisen for us, and also really helped me to shift my perspective on her emotional needs when her emotions suddenly change. Hannah’s play suggestions for supporting my daughter have been really helpful. I felt supported and seen as a parent and more capable of responding to my daughter’s needs and feelings.

Lesley
Social Worker and Parenting Consultant
I am a Social Worker, family advocate and a mother of two children.
I am a multi-passionate person with particular interest in family emotional health & wellbeing. I apply eclectic approaches to support the needs of children and families, including attachment play and a range of creative modalities.
I have worked in the human service sector for 20 years in various roles from case management to therapeutic practices. My professional experience range from infant through to adult mental health, parenting/ family adjustment, guiding behaviour, emotional regulation, psychoeducation, and self-care planning practises.
Fostering family culture, values and rituals is incredibly important to me. I enjoy dabbling in creative projects, immersing in nature, and sharing the magic of playfulness, laughter, and connection.
“Lesley is kind and approachable health professional. She is experienced in helping families navigate difficult times with empathy and genuine care. Lesley works collaboratively with families, supporting them towards their own goals. She is a trusted person to share both struggles and joys with” ~ Mel
I highly recommend Les, her warm empathy, wealth of knowledge and exceptional communication skills sets her apart from others. Les has an array of experiences working with families and children and her passion is evident through her work. Les’s constructive insights help enable successful growth, change and resilience. She’s not afraid to ask the hard question and to get in the trenches with you whilst maintaining a healthy working relationship with you and your family.
Speaking with Hannah was such an incredible turning point for our family. Not only did Hannah put me at complete ease sharing my experience but she was understanding, supportive, warm and willing to offer practical advice. Our beautiful two year old has always been very determined and knows what he wants and having some framework and useful tips have made a huge difference in how my husband and I approach parenting. I highly recommend getting in touch with Hannah. I felt so much lighter and more equipped to deal with the everyday of being a parent after our one-on-one session. It’s wonderful to be able to enjoy spending time with my son rather than being apprehensive about what the day will bring. Thank you Hannah.
