Meet Hermione
Hermione supports families and early learning centres to build strong foundations for talking, listening and early literacy. Her approach is warm, clear and practical—no jargon, just simple strategies that work at home and in real rooms. As the host of the Talking Together podcast, Hermione translates research into down-to-earth ideas you can use the same day: how to spot what’s typical, how to scaffold skills during everyday routines, and how to work with educators so you’re all on the same page. Expect an hour that’s engaging, evidence-informed and action-focused.
