About your facilitator

Lead Facilitator

Helen Armstrong

I am an infant and toddler specialist working with families and professionals towards lives that embody peace, respect and simplicity. With relationships at the heart of my approach, I am guided by the work of Dr Emmi Pikler and Magda Gerber’s Educaring® Approach. It is my passion to inspire and empower caregivers and educators of young children with these principles and practices. My mission is to help adults to see the child in a new way and develop deeply respectful, reciprocal and authentic relationships. Through this understanding, adults will experience the joy that will come from this way of being with children. Offering knowledge and experience from 14 years of working with children, families and professionals, I am a fully qualified, (B.Ed (Tchng) ECE) registered early childhood teacher. I work from a holistic, inclusive approach that embraces individual needs, settings and requirements. I care deeply about every person that I connect with, giving you a personal, meaningful learning experience.
