What I Offer

My programs to support communities and their early learners build a love for reading.

Parent Workshops

Supporting parents with practical and actionable strategies to build a love for reading in their homes.

School Consultancy

I can support schools to strengthen their reading culture and create environments where books are visible, valued and part of everyday school life. Through consultancy, professional development and practical strategies, I help educators foster a genuine love of reading while building confident, engaged readers. My work focuses on making reading a shared priority across classrooms, staff and families so that every child is surrounded by meaningful opportunities to read.

Early Learning Centre Consultancy

Similarly to schools, I can support early learning centres build their reading culture in centre and with families.
