A NOTE FROM TANIA β€οΈ
Today I want to celebrate my daughter.
She has ADHD and dyslexia, and honestly, I do not think we always realise how hard some children are working every single day just to get through school and life.
Some days, she is overwhelmed before the day has even really started.
Some days she needs a break, and she says so.
But she still gets up.
And today, I want to celebrate her bravery.
Not just her achievements.
Not just the βbigβ moments.
But for showing up even when things feel hard.
I think a lot of our children are carrying things we cannot always see.
So this month, I want us to celebrate children not only for achievements and awards, but also for kindness, bravery, perseverance, emotional growth, and simply showing up.

WEEK 3 β€οΈ
SPECIAL COLLECTION LAUNCH β’ 16 JUNE
Over the past few months, I have been quietly working on expanding the Patch from Calm to Confidence range into something much bigger than a single book.
But honestly, this is something I have been thinking about, learning about, living through, and trying to better understand for more than two years.
As both a mom and educator, I kept coming back to the same thing:
So many children are struggling emotionally, but they do not always have the words to explain what they are feeling.
Parents are trying to help.
Teachers are trying to support.
But somewhere in the middle, there is often a gap in communication, emotional understanding, and emotional language.
This new collection was created to help bridge that gap.
Built from both lived experience and research, the bundle focuses on emotional understanding, communication, calm, confidence, and helping children feel safe enough to express what they need.
I hope that this collection helps create calmer conversations, safer learning spaces, and more understanding between the children we are trying so hard to support and the adults walking alongside them.
Launching 16 June β€οΈ
More details coming soon.
