Builds the Capacity
Mammabear was exhausted navigating Sensory and Nervous System overwhelm and Sleep challenges with her Cubs,
No one in the Forrest understood that they only felt better next to her and Pappabear
and hid in their Den because the outside World did not feel Safe.
Pappabear he had to Forage daily alongside our Sloth
The Load was left to her when she looked for Support, she learned quickly that
the Elders of the Forrest were more concerned about "Budgeting," even though
there were Abundant resources available.
Others had left the Community and were on Social Media talking about
Regulating Emotions and Behaviour ,which didn't match up with how
the Body and Brain worked
She designed then created a Multi Sensory product that was easy to use,
looked familiar and brought Comfort and a feeling of
Safety and Co-Regulation for her cubs ,
so she could lay on the Lush grass and have some rest.
She knew what was needed for their Systems in the Body-
Not The output they cubs displayed that many commented on.
The Automatic Village that used to be known as a "Cuddle of Bears",
where she found safety in numbers and the load shared, has always been
essential for all the Bears, but times change and an
Intentional Village had to be created.
Sharing the product, Lavenderbuddy ® and other Products became essential
for this Intentional Village, delivering the take or leave guidance on
Socials and Her Blog, helped spread the Knowledge her Elders knew
that had been diluted to "One Size" Fits all
Other Bears came from miles away just to land in
The "For - Rest" and leave armed with essentials

Our Team
Our Staff at Lavandula HQ ,are happy to be of Service, making sure ALL our children have Equitable access to support their Body and Brain for their Individual Needs
Lack of support may leave children in constant survival mode,
which many do not understand and name it as Bad Behaviour or Naughty
Support for children and Parents should be Up Front and Centre while the World catches up.
Lack of Knowledge for Parents after Diagnosis / Medical Disability is also essential, so the Focus on any Information given is always based on Body and Brain, not Diagnosis or Condition

OT - Lavenderbuddy has brought the foundation of calm balance before any Sensory Integration sessions and is easy to take to different sessions, transport with the back pack and gives a gentle welcome to the children that is playful and familiar before the work is needed
