Book your ticket today! Get ready to learn some expert tips and chat to our panel


Wondering if your child is meeting their development goals? Are they progressing at the same level as their peers? And how do you approach the major topics?

Parents weren’t given a crash course in raising kids but there are resources at your disposal – and we’d like to create an opportunity to chat to all the experts in one room.

There’s no greater reward than witnessing your little one grow as they develop their cognitive, physical, social and emotional skills – but how do you know you’re doing it “right”? We’ll help you get there.


Event highlights:

- The burning issues parents of young children are facing.

- Developmental delays and the power of play therapy.

- The effects of anxiety on children.

- Parenting: How to get out of survival mode post-covid – and areas of focus.

- Our goal: To help you navigate through parenthood and help your child flourish.
