Local Events + Chelsea’s Childcare

Hi! I’m Chelsea Lee Smith, the founder of MomentsADay.com. I have a small childcare service in my home in Kirwan, Townsville (Australia). On Instagram and on the Chelsea’s Childcare Facebook Page, you can see some of the activities we get up to. If you’re local, feel free to contact me via one of those accounts if you’re interested in meeting up and seeing if your child would like to have a play date with us! We will have a meet-and-greet one morning a month so you can have an opportunity to meet us and see our space. Follow those social accounts for announcements.

I also teach parenting classes and offer book readings. Most classes and events are held in Townsville (Queensland, Australia) but are occasionally in the Brisbane, Sydney, or Melbourne areas.

Author Visit to Schools and Libraries

Visits to schools and libraries generally last about 45 minutes and include a reading of one of my storybooks (such as Mason’s Greatest Gems or Garden of Virtues), time for questions, and a couple hands-on activities. Visits can be arranged for one class, a few classes, or a full assembly. Copies of the books can be included in a visit package and angles can be adjusted to suit your needs. There are digital activity packs available for each book that teachers can use to follow up the visit, as well.

Parenting Classes

I am a certified Positive Discipline parent educator and offer 6-week or 2-day weekend classes which you can read about in this post. I use the “Positive Discipline” theory and program developed by Dr. Jane Nelsen, based on the work of psychologists Alfred Adler and Rudolf Dreikurs. It is designed to help parents teach young people to become responsible members of their communities and develop important social and life skills in a manner based on mutual respect, connection, and resilience. Contact me to book your spot in the next class.

Looking back on 2016 and what to expect at Moments A Day in 2017Presentations and Workshops

Topics of workshops can be those covered by my ebooks or digital workshops, Positive Discipline parenting materials, or emotion coaching for adults and/or children. I’m certified to teach “Tuning in to Kids: Emotionally Intelligent Parenting” which is an evidence-based program that focuses on the emotional intelligence and connection between parents and children. Emotion coaching is the ability to recognise, understand and respond to children’s emotions in an accepting, supportive way. This approach helps the child to understand and manage their emotions.

Back to school checklist including family traditionsSchool Holiday Programs

The school holiday programs I offer often use my skills as a Rainbow Kids Yoga teacher to engage children. They might use some of my own materials or might be based on the “Full-Circle Learning” program.  FCL is an educational model that unites the head, hands and heart; fosters altruistic identities; and strengthens aptitudes as it brings learning experiences full-circle.  Its mission is to help young people embrace their role as society’s change agents and humanitarians. It does so through an integrated educational model that infuses purpose into learning.  To learn more about FCL history and programs, click here.

Contact me if you are interested in attending an event or inviting me to speak for your organisation.
