Meet The Writer
Hi There, I'm Jules,
I am a parenting coach who helps other Mums and Dads teach their kids how to play independently (so they can foster their capacity to be creative thinkers and so you can have some time out!)
Yep, I have a pretty fun job!
I’m also:
- A Mama to 3 beautiful girls under 5
- A brand new home-schooling parent
- A Singaporean who now lives in Victoria, Australia
- An ex preschool teacher (I loved being a teacher, but left when I gave birth to my first daughter).
