More About our Services

What do I mean by Neurodiversity?

A quick explainer to help everyone feel welcome and informed. I work with a broad range of clients who may be autistic, ADHDers, gifted, dyslexic, anxious, sensory avoidant, or simply wired a bit differently. “Neurodivergent” doesn’t mean broken—just different. And different brains deserve different approaches.

Is your child struggling to fit into a world that wasn’t designed for them?

Maybe you’ve been told your child needs to “try harder,” “focus more,” or “just behave.” You’ve tried tutors, therapists, reward charts… and nothing seems to stick. You’re exhausted, and your child is too.

You’re not alone—and you’re not doing anything wrong. The problem isn’t you. The current system wasn’t built for neurodivergent kids.

Tammy talking with a young client

Meet your guide

Hi, I’m Tammy

I’m a teacher, mentor, counsellor-in-training, and mum of three neurodivergent kids (plus one forever in my heart).

I know what it’s like to fight for support, to navigate broken systems, and to wonder every day if you’re doing enough.

I left the classroom to build something different — a space where kids are seen, respected, and supported to thrive as themselves.

Client Feedback

“Tammy is a great teacher. Her enthusiasm is infectious and my daughter can’t want to go to tutoring. She has improved her reading and now teaches me about sounds and spelling. Highly recommended Tammy is the Bomb!”
Laura

Paul
Parent
“I like coming to LEGO because it’s really fun and I like learning about it. I learn about teamwork, friendship, helping people, and that LEGO is good for your mind.”
7 year old Champ
“I like coming to play LEGO because I like building. I like playing with my friends and sometimes I learn new things while I’m here, too.”
6 year old Champ

“Our 7-year-old daughter adores LEGO® Therapy! It has boosted her creativity, confidence, and communication skills. Tammy gently guides her through challenges, and the impact on her school interactions has been massive. Highly recommend!”

Megan
Mum
“The LEGO® Therapy group has given my kids a chance to build resilience, develop social skills, strengthen fine motor abilities, and make new friends. They’re always excited to go and receive amazing support from Tammy – we couldn’t ask for anyone better.”
Kris
Mum
“I like working with Tammy because she makes me think about how to approach a question rather than just reading it. She helps me break it down and work through it step-by-step, and supports me to stay organised and up-to-date with my university work. Having worked with her for over five years, I know the difference she makes.”
Bruno

“Tammy helps me get organised for my homework and assignments, and supports me with personal issues. I’ve had a connection with her for a long time and it feels like a personal bond. Working with her is so much better than working at home, and I can even fly around in the swing! The space is open, colourful, and has a lot to do. You can unwind and have fun while you work.”
Xavier

“Tammy’s assistance over the past four years has been invaluable. My son’s focus and success in achieving his goals owe a great deal to Tammy’s exceptional professionalism, dedication, and positive outlook. She really cares, and she’s fun!! We are so lucky to have Tammy in our corner.”

Diana
Mum
“Cannot rate Tammy highly enough, from little neurodiverse people to teens! The approach is tailored to perfection and the atmosphere is calm and encouraging. Highly recommend!”
