We've developed a simple approach that helps build genuine connections—where these difficulties aren’t seen as barriers, but as starting points for engagement. Our methods are easy to grasp, can be used by anyone without special training, and don’t require special financial investment. We believe that all children are able to connect; you just need to find the right way to reach them. Our mission is to help children who come from tough backgrounds—whether it's because they have attention issues, sensory challenges, anxiety, or are dealing with a lot of stress—feel like they’re part of something bigger, a shared experience. We genuinely believe that forming connections, working together, and just enjoying each other's company isn’t a privilege but a basic right for all children.For more information, please visit www.nestingplay.comJob DescriptionWe need someone who can help us build our brand for impact.
