Firstly, thank you for taking the time to explore supervision for your team. Leaders who are truly interested in supporting the mental health, well-being and continued professional development of themselves and their teams are a special group. You're one of those people and we can't wait to help you do even better by exploring the impact supervision can have for you, your team, your organisation and, as a result, on the children in your care.
We know that any role working in Education is tough, and the current climate isn't getting any easier.
The data around the mental load of our work is stark...
How does supervision help?
Supervision tackles the workload and well-being head on, building resilient, happier leaders who are better equipped to face the challenges of working in the Education and Childcare sector today. A high quality supervision offer supports organisations to recruit and retain staff who know they are valued.
Supervision, implemented well, gives space for staff to share concerns, reflect on practise and become independent in setting goals for improvement. OFSTED feedback has shown that settings with an embedded supervision culture have happier, more motivated staff and achieve better outcomes for their pupils overall.
Did you know?
If you have staff who work with Early Years children (birth - 5 yrs) supervision is a statutory requirement detailed in the Early Years Framework, updated in 2024. There is also growing momentum and recommendations to be used for leaders across the Education and Childcare sector.
Supervision can be transformative to you, your staff and the children in your organisation.
But, it can be challenging to implement and tough to invest the time into, to create the impact you need.

Who runs the sessions?
Hi, I'm Emma. I'm an Early Years teacher and have been a Headteacher leading in Schools, across Trusts and childcare settings for over 10 years.
I've been where you are, felt the juggle and wanted a better solution. I wanted to help my staff feel supported, listened to, and able to develop their confidence, resilience and develop professionally. I wanted to make sure that we had monitoring for safeguarding concerns and avenues for sharing these regularly.
I have worked with teams of teachers, leaders, Early Years leads and practitioners, Headteachers and childcare managers. My leadership experience, coaching and facilitation training has given me the tools to support you on the journey to engaging in effective supervision whether that is working with me 1:1 or outsourcing the supervision of your team to me.
I am passionate about working with individuals and teams who impact the lives of children across the world, to engage in supportive conversations which positively impact on their well-being, confidence and ability to do a fantastic job. I'm kind, creative and committed. Let's connect and make a change today.
1:1 supervision is perfect for leaders who are looking for reflective space to support their well-being and to develop their practise.
1:1 Supervision is primarily aimed at leaders and practitioners working in education and childcare. Through supportive, client led sessions we explore the challenges your team are currently facing including the emotional load of the important work you do. They have space to offload and concerns, worries and stresses. We look at safeguarding practises and the impact these can have when working with families and young people. Sessions create judgement free space to discuss key challenges staff are facing and, through a coaching model, support reflection and exploration of steps forward. Clients often report feeling 'lighter', 'more positive' and 'clearer on actions to take' after our sessions.
Sessions are:
- Approximately 1 hour long and led by Emma.
- Mostly online but can be face-to-face depending on location.
- Usually monthly sessions at a time to suit you (evening and weekend options available).
- Blocks of 6 sessions enable relationship building and maximum impact.
- Blocks of 9 also available to cover a full academic year.
- A block of 6 sessions is £420.
Before participants start 1:1 sessions you will be invite to a free 30 minute introduction call to get to know Emma, hear about how the sessions are organised and to ask any questions.
If you are unsure whether 1:1 is the support you need for your team, just book a call and we can connect. If you would like your team member to have the opportunity to meet me before you make any decisions you are welcome to book a call for them, and I can share more information directly with them.
We know that implementing successful supervision is a big challenge. It's tough to create and protect time, ensure staff are trained, and hold trusted and confidential space. Wouldn't it be amazing if you could get external support or even outsource your supervision? But isn't it expensive? I've been where you are and I wanted to create an affordable but highly effective option for supervision. By booking blocks of time with Emma, you can offer staff supervision sessions that work.
We work on half day or full day rates. Half day online rates are £250 and can serve 4 leaders, Full day online rates are £350 and can serve 6 leaders. We can also offer face to face sessions which include travel expenses.
The full academic year offer is a great way to ensure your team is fully supported...

Get in touch to discuss the package that would best support your leaders.
We have been listening to leaders and many are interested in supervision but some don't have the budget to invest in 1:1 and group supervision for large numbers of staff. Great leaders want to explore implementation of supervision across whole teams and their full staff in schools, to ensure the positive impact is spread across their organisation. Leaders want high quality, easily accessible content which can be shared with their staff, and support to create a vision which fits their setting and to implement it well.
We listened and we acted. We have created an all new training package called Embedding Supervision.
The package includes:
- Monthly supervision for 1 lead across the full academic year 2024-25 (9 sessions)
- full training to offer sessions internally within their organisation
- implementation guidance
- ongoing support For just £895!

Got some questions? Have a look at our FAQ's below or book a call to talk to us.
We make the session times bespoke to each client for 1:1 packages. We don't advocate working at all hours, but we totally understand that it's hard to get time in the day to join calls. We offer all sorts of time availability. You can request evening and weekend calls to suit your timetables. Our programme group times are scheduled to best meet the needs of the group. We survey participants to find what will work and we always offer 2 or more options each month so you can find a time that works.
We offer on boarding for all new clients. If you book a programme group you will receive full training in supervision and that means both leading supervision sessions and also being a supervisee. You will recieve preparation materials for sessions to help you feel really ready. For all 1:1 clients we invite you to an introductory call where we explain the process and share the preparation materials with you. You can ask all of your questions on the call to help you feel confident about getting started.
All of our training is pre-recorded (unless you have requested a bespoke package with face to face). You can access the sessions at a time to suit you and they are available for the duration of your package, so you can go back to recap where needed.
Yes! Our online sessions work brilliantly and are so convenient for most, but we love seeing people in real life! We can offer face to face training and supervision depending on your location. We are based in Exeter, Devon. Travel expenses are included in bespoke support options where required.
