Helping children manage their emotions and behaviours can be one of the most challenging – and rewarding – parts of parenting. That’s why Reddam House Sydney is delighted to once again host Kate Broderick, renowned Occupational Therapist, Speech Pathologist, and Founder of The Spot Therapy Hub, for an engaging and insightful session designed to empower families with practical, evidence-based tools.

An Event for Parents and Educators

On Wednesday 19 November, Kate Broderick will present Practical Strategies for Big Behaviours: Attachment-Safe Discipline & the Power of Play — an event that explores how connection, play, and emotional understanding can shape more positive, confident, and resilient children.

In this complimentary session, Kate will unpack the science behind children’s emotions and offer practical approaches for parents to support their child’s behavioural development in calm and constructive ways. Whether your child is just starting school or navigating the early primary years, this talk will provide reassurance and actionable strategies to strengthen your parent-child relationship.
