ABOUT
Hi, I’m Becca Bird - Nice to Meet You!
With 20 years of experience in Early Years and Education, I’ve had the pleasure of working with families and children from infancy through to A-level. My journey has been all about helping families find the right support, whether it’s through accessing diagnosis pathways, navigating social care involvement, or managing behaviour. By focusing on what each child is trying to communicate, I’ve supported countless families in making informed, compassionate decisions.
​
Understanding Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs) and their effects on daily life has shaped my approach to providing tailored, empathetic support. I’m passionate about helping families and children navigate these challenges with understanding and care.
​
After a recent redundancy, I took the leap to start my own business with mental health at the heart of what I do. I’m dedicated to improving access to mental health support for young people, recognising that strong mental health is crucial for success in relationships, education, and life. I want to make sure that every child gets the support they need to flourish.
​
I believe every child deserves to be heard and supported in their journey. If you’re facing challenges with school refusal or missing in education, or if you simply want to talk about how we can support your child’s mental well-being, I’m here to help.
​
Let’s work together to make a difference for your child. Reach out today and let’s discuss how we can support your family’s needs.
​
Contact me to start the conversation and find out how we can work together to create positive change. I’m here to offer support and guidance every step of the way.
