🌱 Tomorrow I’ll be speaking at #NurseryWorldConference about rethinking school readiness.

It’s not about checklists, it’s about who children are.

Play, relationships & belonging are the real foundations of readiness.

📘 Starting Strong is out next week!

A new book for anyone who knows that school readiness shouldn’t be a checklist, it should be child-centred, play-rich, and rooted in relationships.

Let’s change the story. Are you with us? 👇

The new year is off to an interesting start… in just 24 hours I’ve broken my glasses, restarted my Netflix, activated my doorbell, and written down all my goals for the year.

We’ll see how the rest of 2025 goes.
