15 days to enter the giveaways, 15 days until most of you will have no school stress for 6 weeks which means... 15 days until I close for summer and enjoy some well earned time with my own kidlets 🎉🎉🎉 During summer i will be completing any CAMHS packs i need to catch up with and attending any tribunals or pip assessments that may pop up. You can still reach me through messages if you need me but I may take a little longer to reply.

Closing 22nd July
Back in the office 7th September.

September is filling up rapidly and also so dates in October have gone to. So get any appointments in fast if you are needing my services 😀 I also only have very limited space between now and the 22nd.

****CLOSED****

Wowzers guys! I am always trying to find ways to help out my clients and I think this tops everything!

I have teamed up with Hayling Island Holiday Park to bring you a holiday giveaway!

Thanks to the generosity of the holiday park one lucky winner will recieve an off peak weekend stay.

Why have I chosen this park I hear you ask...

Pro's
💚 The park has its very own zen den (sensory room) which is accessible 24 hours a day! Picture this - child is struggling to sleep or is overwhelmed by being away from home. 15 minutes in the Zen Den will calm not only your child but you too! See the video for what its like and it also has aircon.
💛 Off peak the park is quiet meaning its calm and not to busy.
❤️ The beach is a 2 minute drive or 15 minute walk away.
🧡 There is an arcade on site but no mascots and annoying shops to buy merchandise from (we all know how hard it is to say no to the kids!)
💙 The park has its very own lido! Splash park, outdoor and indoor pool what more could you ask for!
💓 I own a caravan on the site so if you wanted to I can meet you for lunch on me! You can finally put a face to the voice who fights for you all 💓

Con's
💔 You wont want to leave!

To enter -
❗️ You must be a client of mine. This has been set up as a treat for everyone who i have worked with and continue to work with❗️I must have an invoice with your name on it for you to be entered into the draw.

❗️ IMPORTANT INFORMATION PLEASE READ❗️

After a break for personal reasons I am back in the office tomorrow! Thank you for your understanding regards this.

One thing that has come to light while I have been out of the office is DLA forms. I have had a number of clients sending them off and then not hearing anything from DLA not even confirmation. After some time has passed they are contacting them to find out that they have 'lost' the forms. Each person has had proof of postage and it clearly states its been signed for! My advice would be mark on your calender the day you have posted it. If you do not hear from DLA either via text or letter that they have recieved it give them a call to check its there. Any I do i can reprint (small cost for postage and ink etc) so dont panic to much. Make sure you keep the proof of postage in a safe place and take a photo of it to as with the proof its been signed for they will back date to the orginal.

One client had 2 DLA forms sent a week apart both got lost! We reprinted and she resent this time on the same day and these have also been lost!

I have limited avaliablty for the next few weeks now due to a back log with having time off but I look forward to speaking to you all again 😀

Hey Everyone
As you all know I lost my Uncle who was like a dad to me last year. Its been an emotional journey ever since and now everything is finally coming to an end I have become emotionally and mentally stressed and drained. I have struggled these past 2 weeks and the clients I have had in that time frame have been so supportive and amazing even though they could see I was struggling. After speaking to a friend I have sought medical advice. I have been advised to listen to my body and take a break from work and anything in life that is putting a strain on me while we tackle this final hurdle. Anyone who knows me will know how hard this is for me to write let alone put into action. I hate letting people down but I am no good to my family or clients when I am struggling myself. Its incredibly hard running your own business and having no one to step in for me. So the plan is to take a month's break to finalise everything to do with my Uncle and take some breathing space for myself so I can come back stronger and with a clearer ready to work head.

I am so sorry it has got to this point but I promise you I will be be back to my normal fighting self as soon as I possibly can.

Any appointments I have between now and the end of May I will be in touch to rearrange. If anyone needs me I am always at the end of my messages for advise. Half term is 25th May so I will be back in the office 2nd June all being well. I will keep you all posted. Thank you for understanding ♥️
