Description

Send us a text"Playgroup saved me. Although I know that sounds really dramatic, I actually feel it’s really true." In Conversation with Naomi Jeffree – Playgroup Facilitator and Training Coordinator In our final episode of season one, we speak with our wonderful colleague and playgroup expert, Naomi Jeffree. Naomi has been working with families for over twenty years and her work within playgroups has focused heavily on families whose children have different abilities and needs. In this conversation, Naomi discusses the way playgroups can give people a profound sense of belonging, can change children’s lives for the better and which, above all else, emphasise fun and joy. She also reflects on the fact that because playgroups are so varied, there is really no such thing as typical “playgroup mum”. About Our Guest Naomi Jeffree has dedicated more than 20 years of her professional life to working with families. Today she is a facilitator, training coordinator, community leader and, most importantly, the proud mum of two boys. Read the story of a PlayConnect+ playgroup facilitated by Naomi.
