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 1 year old.

I made this guide because I get it. Those tricky moments over toys? They’re not just about the toy. They’re about trust, emotional safety, and helping children build real social skills.

This isn’t about getting it perfect - it’s about getting the support you need to feel confident, grounded, and in tune with what children actually need in the moment.

I can't wait for you to see what's inside x
