‘It’s just like a personalised PD session. There is no judgement, the coach is there to support you. Our coach has supported us with individual children’s behaviour plans. I can’t recommend it more highly’ – Jessie, Tyers Preschool
‘After learning about why children might behave in certain ways, my team and I don’t feel hopeless anymore. Even the smallest progress, such as a child learning to share or take turns, now feels like the light at the end of the tunnel. The training has supported me and my team in a very positive way.' – Nethmi, Gowrie Victoria Carlton Learning Precinct
