Give your little monkey the opportunity to engage in fun, educational, play-based classes every week. Our hands-on sessions focus on teaching a range of social, emotional, and behavioral skills, helping your child excel and build resilience as they take their first steps away from you.
Prepare your little one for school with our tailored 2-hour sessions that mimic a classroom setting. Children will participate in individual and group activities, with a focus on self-care, attention and concentration, motor skills, social skills, and emotional regulation.
We also offer an 8-week social-emotional learning program based on 'The Zones of Regulation' curriculum, created by Occupational Therapist Leah Kuypers. This program helps children recognize and regulate their actions by understanding how their body is feeling. It is suitable for all children, including those with a diagnosis of ASD, ADD/ADHD, as well as those without a diagnosis.

Reviews
"Jenna made such a difference to my Son. He was a very shy boy who found it hard to make friends in kinder. He is now a confident little prep boy who is friends with everyone. He loves learning and I know this has a lot to do with Monkey Minds. I will definitely be sending my daughter as well."
"Monkey minds has been the best place for our son to get the help he has needed, the owner Jenna what can I say the most caring, compassionate person I have ever met. Jenna just wants the best for all the children and wants to all give her everything to everyone who comes into Monkey Minds. If you are looking for somewhere to go that is quiet and well run and an amazing facility then look no further then monkey minds."
"Starting our daughter at Monkey Minds' School Readiness Program was hands down one of the best decisions we've made for her. After a rocky Covid-affected kinder year, we felt she needed some extra support to really help her along her learning journey. The small group environment at Monkey Minds was perfect for her to practice her fine and gross motor skills, her listening skills and play skills. Jenna identified Anna's challenges and strengths, and worked with her interests to help her to gain the skills and confidence to make a strong start to school. Our daughter loved her time at Monkey Minds and we are excited to try some of the primary school aged programs later in the year."
"Lincoln made such amazing progress during his time at Monkey Minds. Jenna’s program, support and guidance helped Lincoln build confidence, challenge his abilities and prepare for the transition from childcare/kinder to prep. We watched Lincoln grow and mature in such a short period of time and he couldn’t wait to get back to class and see Jenna every week."
"Highly Recommend! We have twin boys aged 3 who are experiencing global development delays & sensory processing difficulties. We’ve been seeing Jenna for weekly sessions to improve their communication, engagement & overall development. I can whole heartedly say that in the short time we’ve been attending Monkey Minds we have seen a huge improvement with both our boys. Jenna is an absolute expert at what she does & has a way like no other. The boys are verbal but don’t often initiate conversation. Already they are referring to her by name & show excitement as soon as ‘Jenna & her Monkey’ are mentioned. Not only have we seen great results but as a Mum that has been faced with some challenging times of late she would have to be one of the only people that truly understands our boys, considers our situation with daily challenges & someone who I am able to confide in. So grateful for everything Monkey Minds has already given us. The new space in Dromana is amazing & we will be attending many more sessions xx"
