Why Little Beginnings Hub?

We built this because we saw the gap — and we knew we could fill it. Here's what makes us different.

🔬

Evidence-Based, Always

Everything we teach is grounded in current research and clinical best practice. No fluff, no oversimplification — just clear, accurate information you can trust.

🌱

One Place for Both Worlds

We're uniquely positioned to serve both parents and professionals. No other platform does what we do — bringing both audiences together under one roof, with courses tailored to each.

💛

Made by People Who Get It

Our courses are created by experienced clinicians who understand the frustrations on both sides — the parent who's been dismissed, and the practitioner who's been underprepared.

Our Vision

A ripple effect of change


At Little Beginnings Hub, we envision a world where every child has the opportunity to thrive — supported by empowered parents, informed professionals, and nurturing communities. Like the caterpillar on its journey to transformation, we believe every child carries the potential for remarkable growth.


Our mission is to guide that journey by providing high-quality, evidence-based training in child development for those who shape young lives — from parents and caregivers to educators and healthcare professionals. We aim to bridge the gap between knowledge and practice, fostering environments where children's development can flourish.


Accessibility and affordability sit at the heart of everything we do. Expert support shouldn't depend on your postcode, your profession, or your budget. We've built Little Beginnings Hub so that high-quality, evidence-based learning is within reach for every parent and every professional who needs it — wherever they are in the world.


Through our training programmes, we aspire to create a ripple effect of positive change: confident adults, connected relationships, and children who are seen, understood, and supported at every stage of their development.


Just as the caterpillar symbolises growth and evolution, our work is rooted in the belief that learning transforms lives — one child, one adult, one step at a time.

The right information, at the right time, can genuinely change everything

Hi, I'm Chelsea — a paediatric Speech and Language Therapist specialising in feeding and early communication, and mum of 2 lively little girls. I'm someone who will always be the first to say the right information, at the right time, can genuinely change everything — and I'm so glad you found us.

I'm from Ireland and trained in London. I've spent my career working with babies, toddlers and young children (and now own Eat Chat Play) — getting to know their families, understanding what they're struggling with, and finding ways to help that actually fit their lives. I love what I do because no two children are the same, and there's something really special about being trusted with the hard stuff.

Little Beginnings Hub grew out of conversations Savannah and I kept having — about the gaps we were both seeing, every day. Parents constantly asking us where they could go to learn more, and us not having a good enough answer. Professionals feeling unsure in specific clinical areas and asking for help. We both wanted to build something that actually helped: a place where parents and professionals could find real, trustworthy information without hunting for it or spending a fortune.

What I wish every parent knew? Trust your instincts. If something feels off, don't push that feeling aside. You know your child better than anyone — and there are people out there ready to listen.

Parents come to me feeling anxious and overwhelmed. I want them to leave feeling empowered, confident, and ready. Professionals come to us hungry for knowledge and expertise. I want them to leave feeling inspired, capable, and equipped to make a real impact.

That's what we're here for — and I'm so happy you're part of it.

Outside of work, I'm happiest when I'm with my family and friends, travelling whenever life allows and getting outside as much as possible. The simple things really are the best things.

Paediatric Speech Therapist IBCLC Co-Founder Little Beginnings Hub Owner Learn to Feed

Built from something bigger than just loving my job

Hi, I'm Savannah — mum to an energetic little boy and two crazy cats, Pumpkin and Zucchini. I'm a partner, a friend, a yogi and someone who is most at home with bare feet and fresh air. Oh, and a Speech and Language Therapist and Lactation Consultant (IBCLC) too!

I trained in South Africa and moved to the UK over a decade ago. I've spent my career working in paediatric feeding (and now own Learn to Feed) and genuinely love what I do — I feel lucky every day to call this my work.

Little Beginnings Hub was born from something bigger than just loving my job — parents who aren't being heard, who are wading through conflicting information, who can't access the support they need because of where they live or what they can afford. Professionals who are brilliant and caring, who want to do more for the children in their care but don't yet feel confident enough to do so. The gap between wanting to help and feeling equipped to help is real — and it costs children. That's why Chelsea and I built Little Beginnings Hub.

What I wish every parent knew? Every child develops at their own pace, and there is always someone willing to help. Your child can reach their full potential — and we're here to make sure the people around them have everything they need to make that happen.

Parents come to us feeling despondent. I want them to leave feeling hopeful. Professionals come to us seeking knowledge. I want them to leave feeling skilled and able to empower their clients and patients.

That's what Little Beginnings Hub is for.

When I'm not working, you'll find me on my yoga mat, walking somewhere green, watching my little one terrorise the cats, or standing somewhere near the sea with my face in the wind. Music, dancing, fresh air — these are the things that fill me back up.
