FOR SCHOOLS

Sustainable Staff Wellbeing for Schools

Building professional wellbeing intelligence. Creating sustainable staff wellbeing systems.

Staff wellbeing doesn't improve through one-off initiatives or another wellbeing week.

It improves when educators develop the skills to navigate the realities of modern education, and when leaders intentionally create the systems, structures and culture that help people thrive.

Drawing on organisational psychology, positive psychology and coaching psychology, I partner with schools to build professional wellbeing intelligence across individuals while implementing sustainable staff wellbeing systems that strengthen culture, engagement and performance.

Because thriving schools don't happen by chance.
They are built intentionally.

“Daniela’s workshop was helpful and informative. Her engaging presentation style made the session enjoyable for all who attended. It was incredibly timely, and perfectly focused. I am excited to implement the strategies I learned and put them into action immediately.”

- Jane Danvers, Principal, Kambala School, Sydney

“Daniela is a highly engaging speaker. I like the way that humour and her practical, relevant stories, and metaphors were used to embed what was taught. She gave us practical resources such as the wellbeing box. She also allowed us space to reflect on our practise. I aim to begin punctuating my day and to connect before content.”

- Simone Colville, Maitland Newcastle

“This workshop was excellent! It has a great mix of activities and information, very engaging. I took many benefits from attending and it has reinforced my thoughts and given me new strategies to perceive situations and think about things differently. I will be implementing the “see the sunrise - improving my self care/love and have more positive and supportive self talk.”

– David Tessa, William Clarke College, NSW

“The professional learning experience was thought-provoking, informative, and very entertaining. This is the best professional learning experience I’ve had at AISHK in 20 years. It gave me a lot of food for thought and made me realise that I need to focus more on my own well-being and cut out the noise. I am very hopeful that what I learned today will be something that we can all live, learn, teach and embed as we move forward, with Daniela being a part of the strategic planning.”

– Paul McGunnigle, AIS Hong Kong

“Daniela’s workshop was just what I needed and is certainly something the whole staff should do. It helped me find perspective and I will certainly be sharing the wellbeing tools.”

- Penny Reid, OLSH, Alice Springs, NT

“Daniela was amazing with her humour and knowledge, she held everyone’s attention for an entire twilight session (after a long teacher day) – a very enjoyable and useful workshop.”

– Elizabeth Field, Narooma High School

“It was an overwhelmingly positive day. I spent more time engaged and laughing with my peers than I had anticipated. Additionally, I learned some important self-care ideas. Daniela's workshop allowed me to look inward and be vulnerable not only to myself, but also to my respected peers.”

– Xavier Szeto , AIS Hong Kong

“I found the workshop to be highly beneficial. Daniela's presentation style was enjoyable, and her information was quite helpful. It gave me the assurance I needed to prioritize myself in my job. Throughout the workshop, I learned various strategies for taking care of myself, putting myself first, and taking control of what I can. Because of this workshop, I will  start by being generous to myself”

– Joel Harrison,  Nulkaba Public School, NSW

“I found Daniela's workshop to be very useful, and her style of presenting was enjoyable. It was exactly what we needed and I thoroughly loved it! Daniela made several valuable comments and statements that were great to hear, and I'm now determined to take action on those. One of the key takeaways for me was the importance of self-care, which I will definitely make an effort to prioritize more. I tend to put my family and friends' needs before my own well-being, and I now realize that this is not sustainable nor healthy.”

– Lisa Murray, St. Luke’s Grammar School
