Bedtime tips for sleep anxiety in children

Sleep is one of the hardest life skills to work on with your children. Sleep helps our brain function well, keeps our emotions in check and reduces our chances of becoming sick. Our Bedtime Guide has been developed by Therapy Pro for Kids’ Lead Early Childhood Early Intervention Therapists, Penny and Jodie, to support children and their families during bedtime. The guide includes tips for identifying signs of anxiety at bedtime, how you can help your child, creating a restful room and a printable routine chart.

My journey with MS

Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a chronic illness involving your central nervous system (CNS). The immune system attacks myelin, which is the protective layer around nerve fibres. This causes inflammation and scar tissue, or lesions and can make it hard for your brain to send signals to the rest of your body. MS is the most common neurological disease that typically presents  at an early age, adolescent years.

On MS Awareness day people are encouraged to bring awareness, share their stories and help people to understand how to help those with conditions that are not always visible but can have a significant impact on quality of life.

Jan Coleman, Therapy Pro Melbourne Social Worker, has been very brave in sharing her story.
