"My children have become so much more independent, creative and confident. It is an absolute stroke of genius and I really can’t recommend it highly enough."

Rachel- member of PlayLab

"I genuinely mean it when I say that PlayLab has saved my sanity! I can quickly set up an activity and they’ll happily play independently."

Shirin - member of PlayLab

"I honestly can't believe the quality and quantity of what you share with us..It's like my Netflix - I love binge watching your videos then going back and making notes for play ideas for my daughter."

Emma - member of PlayLab

"The Independent Play 101 course is brilliant! I have so many ideas forming. I would never have thought of getting a course like this but I'm so grateful. I can't wait to start putting it into practise!"
