Introducing settled petals

 Our aim is to support and empower parents and caregivers to promote a relaxing, holistic environment for their children to bloom. We have created a number of instant access resources to assist with this. This includes support for Newborn Sleep, Baby Sleep, Toddler Sleep and Potty Training. In addition to our Online Baby Massage Course and Baby Sign Language Resource.  

We also offer 1:1 support calls for those who would prefer more tailormade recommendations and support in relation to Infant Sleep and Potty  Training. 

Susan is passionate about supporting others to start or add to their own infant consultancy business, and has used her knowledge and experience to create evidence based courses in Baby Massage Instructor Training, Baby Yoga Instructor Training ,  Family Centred Infant Sleep (to become a Baby and Toddler Sleep Consultant). and Potty Training Consultancy (to become a Certified Potty Training Consultant). 

All 4 courses have been accredited by FEDANT (Federation of Antenatal Educators). They are also suitable for those who already work within Early Years settings and for those who support families with young children - such as midwifes, social workers, family support workers and Health Visitors. To date we have supported over 100 student enrolments, from 11 different countries.  

Our approach is Family Centred. Whether that is making a tailormade support plan for an individual family, or supporting someone to open their own business. 

Our parent resources are all available to access instantly, as many times as you desire. 

Our accredited training is completed online, in your own time. It is designed to work around any other commitments you may have. There is so no start or end date, but Susan is available to offer support for the duration of your studies. We also offer ongoing access to our closed student and graduate Facebook groups for peer support.
