YOUR CHILD DESERVES THE BEST START TO SCHOOL POSSIBLE.
My course will teach you everything you need to know to give your child a smooth transition to school.
Your little one is growing up. They're headed off to big school. It's exciting and scary all at once...
Your child only starts primary school once. It's totally normal to feel nervous, it's a big deal! We want to equip them with the tools they need to become confident, independent and resilient learners and experience a positive start to school.
You deserve the tools and resources to give your child the best possible start to school they can have. As they step through that classroom door on day one, my goal is that you both feel calm, confident and prepared as they make the transition to big school.
I've worked with SO many parents with little ones who felt the same as you. Let me support you to support your child to start their school journey calm, capable and confident.
MEET DANIELLE
Before Big School was my maternity leave passion project.
DANIELLE IS A TEACHER, AUTHOR, SCHOOL READINESS AND EARLY LEARNING SUPPORT CONSULTANT.
SHE IS CURRENTLY STUDYING A MASTERS OF CHILD PLAY THERAPY.
After the birth of my son, I began to think about his start to school. What would I want him to know and be able to do before he walked through that classroom door? How would I prepare him at home? This is when the idea for my first book Before Big School was born. I decided to create my own resource for parents to support their little one’s learning journey at home and their start to school.
Since its release in March 2022, Before Big School has made its way into hundreds of parent’s hands and has been featured on Mamamia and Beyond the Bump podcast. From there I went on to create online courses to help parents with school readiness and learning in the early years.

Before Big School
As seen on Mamamia. Danielle's first book Before Big School explores the academic, emotional, and social aspects of school readiness and is filled with practical ideas and activities which can be embedded into your day.
Pippa's Worry Monster
Danielle's debut picture book.
Pippa has a monster.
Not just any monster… a worry monster. He fills her head with scary thoughts. Woes and worries of different sorts. Sometimes these worries ruin Pippa’s day.
With a little help from someone special, can Pippa get rid of her worry monster for good?
What a delightful book for young children about self doubt and the positive effects of silencing the ‘worry monster’.
This sweet story is beautifully illustrated and conveys a powerful message about believing in yourself.
