TLDR;

Sorry for not posting in ages. It's been a manic few weeks!

Highlights:

I graduated from my MA in Educational Leadership and Management! I am so excited to use the lessons I've learned to continue to develop SENsAble and help all children access their right to education.

I moved across the country, and SENsAble will now be able to support children both in the South AND North East of England!

More announcements to come but this post got too long...

Much love to our whole Network! x

✨🍄‍🟫 The SENsAble Consulting website is officially live! 🍄‍🟫✨

After a year of building, dreaming, shaping, and grounding this work in humanised communication, mutual advocacy, and child‑centred practice… our website is finally here!!!

SENsAble was created to offer support that honours children’s individuality, centres family expertise, and brings compassion back into the heart of education.

This launch is such a huge a milestone: not just for the business, but for every child, parent, and practitioner who deserves dignity‑first support.

We are so proud of what’s been created, and so excited for what’s ahead.
Thank you to everyone who has encouraged, supported, and believed in this vision.

We have an exciting opportunity to join our growing, values‑led consultancy built on relational, trauma‑aware, neuroaffirming practice. We’re developing a connected network of practitioners who share knowledge, support one another, and help shape new projects, training, and services as the organisation expands.

About the Role:
This role involves providing 1:1, relationship‑centred support for a child receiving EOTAS provision at their home in Caversham, Reading.

• Experience supporting children with SEND, neurodivergence, or anxiety
• Ability to co‑regulate and understanding of sensory needs and regulation

SENsAble is the network that brings educators, parents and schools together so children can reach their best potential. No more isolation. No more confusion. Just collaboration, clarity and real support.

Every educator wants to help. Every parent wants clarity. Every child deserves to thrive. SENsAble makes that possible by connecting schools, families and specialists.

Education is changing. We’re here to support that change by connecting everyone who cares about a child’s future. Together, we can do this.

These are some tools you can use to help support your child at home and at school. They’re simple strategies that can be adapted to your child’s individual needs and can make everyday routines feel more manageable, predictable and supportive.

1. Communication Diary:

A simple document or booklet that travels between home and school so teachers and parents can share a full picture of the child’s day, what went well, what felt difficult and what helped during those moments. Building a positive shared story like this strengthens relationships between home and school, helps teachers really connect with and understand the child and makes everyday conversations about their day easier without it feeling overwhelming.

2. Predictable routines:

Routines are put in place to give the child consistency and a sense of security. Predictability supports emotional safety and helps the child feel more grounded in their day. This can be as simple as using a familiar scent or sound to signal the start of an activity, using visual timetables or keeping certain parts of the routine the same each day. It’s about reducing uncertainty and helping the child’s nervous system feel regulated by identifying pressure points and gently building predictability around them.

3. Sensory toolbox:

A sensory toolbox is a box or bag of items that help support a child to regulate their senses and feel comforted, both at home and at school. It might include fidget toys, a favourite small object, calming scents like lotion or wipes, a notebook or journal, checklists, or other sensory tools. It can also include simple coping strategies, like taking five seconds to pause before answering a question, having a trusted person to talk to if feeling sad, or using a breathing technique when feeling panicked. It becomes both a physical and mental toolbox the child can rely on when they need support.

Book a 30 minute call with us so we can personalise these strategies for your child and support you in putting them into practice.

Hello, and welcome to SENsAble Consulting.

This is the beginning of something I have been wanting to build for a long time, and I'm excited for you to join me on this journey.

SENsAble is a brand-new inclusive education consultancy partnering with families, practitioners, and settings to enhance and reform education for children and young people with Special Educational Needs and Disabilities (SEND).

Our missions is to champion inclusive, accessible, and equitable education for every child by delivering sustainable, strategic support to schools and holistic advocacy for families. We work to bridge the gaps between policy, practice, and lived experiences; and to centre the voices of those who are so often marginalised by bureaucracy or excluded from educational research.

Too many families feel unheard.
Too many practitioners feel overwhelmed.
Too many children are facing barriers within the systems that should be supporting them.

We're building a multidisciplinary network grounded in mutual advocacy, proactive inclusion, and the belief that meaningful reform can only happen when we listen to the expertise of families.

Because SENsAble is new, we want to start by listening.

What are your experiences of the education system in the UK? (bonus points if you're based near Reading or London.)

Are you a practitioner or caregiver navigating the SEND system and want to share your thoughts?

What good practice have you seen?

In an ideal world, what would education look like for your child or your community?

Comment, message, email, voice note, video note, draw, paint, however you communicate, whatever you want to say, we want to hear it. Your insights will shape what SENsAble becomes.
