Home Education
Inclusive Children's Books
I believe it is important for children to see themselves represented in books.
When I created my children's books, Slow Down Amaya and Slow Down Sammy, I was mindful of the lack of diversity in kid's literature.
That's why I decided to create Black and neurodivergent characters.
This gives children the opportunity to see themselves, and/or their peers in children’s books, while learning mindfulness techniques and social emotional skills.
Why I Created this Offer
While home educating your child(ren) you may want to share a unique learning experience with an author.
There are many reasons to home school children. As the oldest sibling in a neurodiverse family, I understand the challenges that can arise around attending school for children with additional support needs.
I wanted to provide an experience that might only usually be offered in the traditional schooling system.
I have 7 years experience working with children and families to provide social and emotional activities, and family support.
Plus, I'm a qualified mindfulness and yoga teacher for children, teens and adults. And of course an author!
I'm passionate about sharing tools that children can add to their emotional/wellbeing toolkit.
