"Janine has a wealth of knowledge and is always willing to share and assist educators to better the early childhood sector. Having worked closely with Janine and having had her mentor myself and other educators through assessment and rating I have no doubt STEPPING STONES PD will do amazing things for not only educators but the little minds they shape."

I have benefited greatly from the mentoring and coaching that Janine has provided. The knowledge that she has given me is invaluable, building my confidence to go out and be the best educator I can be.

An incredible opportunity to collaborate and learn with and from education professional, Janine. So generous with her time, personal hands on experience in the field, knowledgeable and holistic in their approach (looking at the whole child). Thank you so much for a refreshing, valuable, inspiring and practical workshop- highly recommend “Guiding Children’s Behaviour”

"I attended the Active Supervision workshop. Kristel was very knowledgeable. I found it provided great practical examples. The content was very relatable and easy to follow. I would like to recommend this Active Supervison workshop to other ECEs."

"I found that the explanation of the planning cycle stood out. The workshop was well paced, allowing time for questions and sharing information. Janine was knowledgeable and I would recommend this workshop."

"Janine was passionate and knowledgeable on the content of the EYLF in the Intro to the EYLF workshop. The small group size was great as it allowed time for questions and conversations. The only changes I would like to see, is for the session to be longer. Otherwise, I highly recommend STEPPING STONES Professional Development for ECEs and this workshop."

The enthusiasm and knowledge from Janine stood out in this workshop. She provided lot’s of pro active ways to implement the updated changes V2.0. Not just to our learning stories but in our service, to our QIP and in the interactions with our children and families. I would recommend this workshop to others."

"I was fascinated by all of it actually. The trainer, Kristel, has cleared up so much for me. Don't change it at all! It is full of such useful and relatable information & examples. I am definitely going to look into more workshops."

"Another incredible workshop.

Just wanted to say how grateful I am to have stumbled across your workshops on the new EYLF 2.0.

I'm not only empowered but really excited to be able to go forth and use this document with confidence & intention."

I learnt more ways on how to connect and show other educators how to make connections between practices and principles and how we use the practice and principles at our service! The examples given were really good and helps to be able to apply to services

I feel that this workshop will uplife my practice in how I apply the planning

cycle to all areas of the program and our practices. It will also help in mentoring educators on the use of practices and principles within our links.

The trainer presented herself well and was very informative.

I really enjoyed REAL examples of how to implement strategies with the team.

This has truly been very informative.

Our educators loved the recent PD on Guiding Behaviours. One of our team members, Ali, from our Kahibah service, especially valued the strategies Janine shared with her. The way Janine explained documenting behaviours really resonated with her, and she’s excited to put these approaches into practice.

This was our second workshop with Janine and we have just booked our third. Her insight is greatly beneficial – when I do my check in after her PDs, everyone is always on a high and raving about how beneficial it was!

So glad we have formed this connection.
