More On Our MembershipsOk, we can hear you saying ‘How are these guys different from the million other play accounts I follow on instagram?’
Well, you see, working with kids has ALWAYS been our passion.
We’ve worked with babies and children for 15 years and we absolutely LOVE our jobs.
There’s one thing we didn’t truly understand until we became mums ourselves.
There is SO much information out there on how to raise your baby and googling baby stuff in the middle of the night is 100% part of motherhood.
And frankly….it’s OVERWHELMING!
We’re here to tell you…..it doesn’t have to be overwhelming, and supporting your baby’s development can be easy and stress free.
About Us
Let's start at the very beginning... what a very good place to start!
(As per Julie Andrews)
University Days
At Walky Talky we take our qualifications very seriously. We were passionate about paediatric development a LONG time before we were mothers ourselves. We have studied, worked and played with babies and toddlers for over 15 years.
We know baby development like the back of our hands. And we know ALL the tricks to help your child meet their milestones.As specialists in early intervention, we’ve seen firsthand how the right information and the right strategies implemented early can make a big impact.
That’s what we are here to help you with!

20 years of Friendship
We’ve been best friends since uni days. We’ve worked together, moved overseas together with our partners (and now husbands). We worked in London and travelled together.
As we worked more and more in the field of paediatrics and our friends started to have babies, we started to become ‘experts’ in development and were the go to people our friends would ask for advice about their babes’ development.
‘Ali, my baby hates tummy time, can you help?’
‘Chi - I’m worried my toddler isn’t talking, is this normal?’.
Motherhood!
Fast forward a few years and we became mamas ourselves. THEN we started turning to each other for help.
And that’s when we realised…..
Having a Physiotherapist and Speech Therapist on ‘tap’ to ask questions and feel reassured was invaluable.
And we wanted ALL parents to have access to the same knowledge we did.
Because we’ve been there…..googling sleep, solids, reflux….
...But baby & toddler development and play?
We’re confident with that.
And you can be too!
Got questions for us?
