Hey there! I’m Rachel, a Mum of four and a registered Occupational Therapist.
I’m passionate about supporting parents to develop healthy, resilient, creative children through less screen time and more play time.
Less screen time and more play time is extremely important for healthy child development.
Playing with others helps children understand relationships, language, roles and social structure.
Play is proven to help develop children’s working memory and improve their ability to achieve at school and beyond.
Children who have had plenty of unscheduled, non-screen time for play throughout their early years are more likely to arrive at school with their natural and interest for learning intact.
Children are more resilient, more physically healthy, have stronger bodies, and spend less time at the Dr with less screen time and more play time.

Parents can feel frustrated and stuck on how to break screen time habits. I know… I’ve been there!
“Rachel has put together a fantastic, user friendly course.
The course has highlighted the importance of reducing screen time for my children and has provided practical ideas on how to achieve this. I am now adhering more to the recommended guidelines”.

“I’m loving the content and feel like it’s structured in a clear ordered way that makes it easy to follow.
Great points on importance of de-cluttering toys and particularly how this enhances creativity with the toys they do have… great description of open ended toys.”
