This series supports parents and children in our Sydney community after recent events. It offers space to explore big feelings, practical ways to cope, and guidance for moving forward one step at a time.
Some videos are created for a parent audience and some can we watched together with your children.
You are brave and strong. One day, you will look back and see that you got through, one step at a time- facing hard things together as a family.

Introduction to the series for Parents and Carers
I'll let you in on a secret. I was able to make that introductory video because of my fluffy cushion. I was having a hard time getting started. You'll find similar items all over my home, and car, and handbag. Because they really help. Squish something, pull something, punch something, snuggle something, scratch something. It keeps you grounded.
Let’s talk about Pretending. You might feel like you are pretending to function, that it isn’t the real part of you, that the real part of you feels shattered in a million pieces. Both parts of you are real and both parts can exist together. It isn’t pretending- it is living. You may need to separate parts of you in order to function- but you are functioning. Your body knows what it needs to do to get your family through each day. You are doing it. You are brave and strong and are getting through very hard things.
