Everyday Moments are the True Moments of Significance.
Every learning experience delivered by The Social & Emotional Learning Foundation is built on the same core beliefs - that learning is more than a translation of knowledge. It is a connecting, reciprocal human exchange that is an opportunity to experience the power of attuned relationships.
What we do
About the work
Using evidence-based workshops and expert facilitation, our programs provide professionals and parents with the empathic mindset, developmental understanding and tangible skills needed to activate development in children.
We focus on activating development that supports children to thrive in the now and into their years to come. We help adults understand the important developmental steps that children go through and the attuned adult presence that they need to achieve these steps.
We provide a range of professional and parent/caregiver programs, learning opportunities and partnerships that prioritise social and emotional development in the early years. We advocate for this work to be undertaken in relationship with a caring and attuned adult, and we believe that the adult’s work is most beneficial for the child when done early and repetitively during childhood.
