Hi, I'm Nicole Bateman aka The Friendly SEND Advisor, and I’m here to help you ensure that every child in your care feels supported, understood, and able to thrive.
As a former teacher, SEND advocate, and a parent of a neurodivergent child with epilepsy, I’ve experienced first hand the challenges and wonderful moments that come with supporting children with Special Educational Needs and Disabilities (SEND).
My mission is to empower children’s activity providers, tutors, and educators like you with the knowledge, tools, and confidence to create inclusive environments where all children can succeed.
Do you feel unsure or overwhelmed when it comes to supporting children with SEND?
You might be wondering:
How can I adapt my sessions to meet the sensory and emotional needs of children with SEND?
How do I communicate with parents and build trust?
What are my legal responsibilities when it comes to SEND Law?
How can I ensure that my activities are inclusive and accessible to all children?
Without the right tools and understanding, children with SEND can feel left out, frustrated, or unable to fully participate. This can not only impact their confidence and emotional well-being but also affect your ability to grow your business by meeting the needs of all children.
I offer tailored solutions designed to help children's activity providers, tutors, and educators overcome these challenges.
Whether you need practical advice, personalised support for specific children, or further understanding on SEND law and inclusive practices, I’m here to guide you every step of the way.
