About Us

Welcome to Help My Child!

Welcome to Help My Child! We offer online courses that are internationally accredited for CPD points. Our courses are designed to provide the most up-to-date theory and practical advice to help therapists, teachers, and parents support children with developmental disabilities. We believe that every child deserves the opportunity to reach their full potential. That’s why we offer a wide range of courses that cover topics such as behaviour management, communication skills, and sensory processing. Our team is passionate about making a difference in the lives of children and their families. We hope that our courses will help you make a positive difference in the lives of the children you work with!

Over the years, working as an “in-betweener”, between parents and therapists, I have noticed that there is sometimes a communication gap, and knowledge and understanding may sometimes fall into this gap and be lost. 

It is because of this that I find it imperative that the courses not only have the most up to date and correct theory, but that it is also written in such a way so that everybody, regardless of education level, may understand it. I also feel that knowledge without practical, real-life examples of it being applied, hardly helps anybody. Therefore, all courses are incredibly practical.

Continuous Professional Development (CPD)

Most professionals need to amass a certain amount of Continuous Professional Development (CPD) points every year to stay up to date and in some instances, to stay registered at their various organisations. As many professionals contacted me regarding the courses and asked if they will be accredited, I decided to submit them for accreditation. I looked abroad for an accreditation company that would accredit the courses with international accreditation. It made no sense to me to apply for country specific accreditation as people from all over the world wanted to do these courses. I applied at a company in the United Kingdom that I found to have very high standards for accreditation and was accepted. 

Knowledge is power. But I also firmly believe knowledge is freedom. 

  • Freedom from bias
  • Freedom from fear
  • Freedom from confusion
  • Freedom from stigma
  • Freedom from helplessness

It is for this reason that the courses are open to everybody, and that I, along with a team of experts with whom I consult, am always available to help people who do the courses. 

My heart has always been to help people, and I am truly happy to say that these courses have helped many people on their paths.  

Accreditations

All of our courses are accredited by The CPD Group, a UK-based accreditation body recognised for rigorous quality assurance. Each course is assessed individually by their Accreditation and Compliance Team against the A.C.C.R.E.D.I.T.E.D. Framework—covering accessibility, content quality, creative delivery, relevance, eligibility, course details, intellectual property, testing, trainer expertise, and duration—so accreditation is earned on merit rather than by blanket approval.

Through this partnership, our courses are internationally accredited and recognised across global CPD ecosystems, with acceptance spanning the UK, Europe, the United States (including CE/CEU-aligned contexts), Australia and beyond. Accreditation includes listing on The CPD Register, enhancing transparency and verifiability for learners and employers worldwide.

The CPD Group is the first—and currently the only—CPD accreditation organisation to be certified by The CPD Register, further evidencing the robustness of their processes.
