hi there!
I'm Danica.
I'm an early childhood educator, university lecturer/tutor, practicum supervisor and, most importantly, mama to a delightfully curious 5 year old and squishy delishy 8 month old.
As an early childhood educator, I know firsthand how overwhelming it can feel when you decide it's time to rethink how you approach supporting behaviour. Where do you even start?!
That’s why I’ve created this guide - as a way to introduce you to the world of guidance and add some tools to your guidance toolkit.
I can't wait for you to see what's inside x
