Testimonials
The respect and understanding Penny shows our son is so admirable and the results have been life changing for him.
I love seeing him come out of a session - he is always so happy.
She really gets to know what makes your child tick and creates a positive relationship for them to learn.
Amy, parent of 13 year old
Penny has taken the time to understand my child's learning / sensory / processing needs and created a program that suits them perfectly.
No-one has ever taken the time to understand my child like Penny has, she formed an authentic connection first, everything else came from there.
Kate, mother of 14 year old
I would highly recommend Penny to anyone .
She is so knowledgeable about learning disorders but most importantly for a parent she is so caring and easy to communicate with.
Mum of 11 year old
Penny has changed my child's life.
My daughter is now interested in her education, re-engaging in school, and is planning her future at TAFE and beyond.
She has hope for the first time in over 2 years!​
