Foundations
for
Writing
Your child can write with ease,
joy and confidence
even if you’ve
tried *everything* already!
The No Writing Way™ will help you feel supported, confident, and hopeful about your child’s writing again. The Spring 2025 live round of Foundations for Writing officially starts 14th April.
Do these sound familiar ...
- Your child’s hands get sore or tired from writing
- They're discouraged because they know their writing is "bad" and they're losing self-esteem
- They're smart.... but hate gong to school or doing any written work
- Your child fidgets, wiggles, gets distracted and just can’t sit still
- They're slouchy and struggle to keep up during gross motor activities and sports
Perhaps you’re on a long waitlist for OT, you’ve tried OT and it didn’t help much, or you’ve been told to “wait and see.”
You care so much about helping your child develop their writing skills in a fun yet effective way... but how do you do this without putting them off writing even more?
In your heart, you know there’s a different way to help your child develop the skills
they need for writing so that they don’t resist it even more,
but you’re not sure how or where to start.
they need for writing so that they don’t resist it even more,
but you’re not sure how or where to start.
Let’s imagine how it could be in 10 weeks if…...
Self-esteem & confidence soar
as your child builds the underlying strength & coordination needed to write
Understanding the root
cause
of your child’s writing difficulties helped you confidently build their sensory & motor skills
A proven plan of FUN activities
to develop your child’s foundational skills helped them choose and want to write
Felt empowered to advocate
for your child’s needs with school & family
An expert Occupational Therapist
answered your questions when you needed it for 10 weeks
These results are possible for you and your child with the right instruction and support, which you’ll find when you join us during the next round of the Foundations for Writing program.
Introducing Foundations for Writing
Here’s what you can expect in this 10 week program!
Hear what this mum said......
“I have a better understanding of the things that need to be in place to support my child in developing his writing skills when he is ready, and that is reassuring.
I can see developments and progress in his gross and fine motor skills and his confidence with these. I have appreciated that we have been able to go at a pace that is right for my child, particularly as we are very child led.”
-Mum BD
Children in 'Foundations for Writing' have had these results:
- Choose or want to write
- Stronger and more coordinated to climb, swim, play sports, and do fine motor activities
- Develop self-esteem, confidence, and less resistance with writing
- More comfortable grasp and force to write and use cutlery
- Write more legibly, smaller, and for longer time .......... and so much more
You can have this too. I'm here to help!

Hi, I'm Munira!
I’m a Paediatric Occupational Therapist and have helped children’s sensory processing and motor skills for writing for 25+ years.
I’m also a mum to my own sensory kid so I have first-hand experience being a sensory parent. (Including the overwhelm, judgment from others, and wondering if we’re on the right path!)
Through it all, he teaches and inspires me.
Here's why I created the
Foundations for Writing program:
1) I know what it’s like to feel alone and unheard by professionals, not knowing where to get support for your child.
2) Too many struggling writers are given more writing practice, fine motor exercises, or pencil grips….but it doesn’t help and the child’s self-esteem begins to suffer.
This is NOT the future for your child!
I’m here to help YOU help your child develop their foundational skills for writing through fun and connection so your child can write with ease, joy and confidence.
I believe kids are doing the best they can with what they have. Once they develop the right underlying sensory and motor skills they need, they then choose and want to write because they now have the skills to do so.
I also believe that as parents you have a gut instinct and deep intuition of how best to help your child. As a fellow parent, I know that nobody is as invested as we are in our own child.
With hand holding and support all along the way through Foundations for Writing,
you will feel inspired and empowered to take action to help your child develop the skills they need
while also advocating for their best interests

Is Foundations
for Writing
right for me?
This is for you if:...
- Your child is 4-13 years old with coordination and writing difficulties
- You are overwhelmed and want to gain confidence how to help your child’s writing through fun
- You want to help your child anywhere and anytime, while advocating for their sensory and motor needs
- You are ready to put in the time and commitment to get results for your child while being supported
- You want to gain momentum with your knowledge to help your child develop their sensory and motor skills for writing
Who is NOT a
good fit for
this program?
Foundations for Writing is
not for everybody.
- Your child is non-ambulatory
- You want 1:1 support (all support takes place in live Q&A’s & FB community - no private emails)
- You want OT at school
- You want a quick-fix to improve your child's writing versus supporting foundational skills
- You are unable to commit the time and effort to do this right now
You CAN help your child overcome their writing
frustrations… you’ve found the program with the
right information, support, and guidance so you don’t have to figure it out on your own.
Read What this Mum Said...
“Munira has been been so warm and approachable from day one of contacting her. Felt very happy and comfortable working with her as she guides and demonstrates so well throughout the course.
My son’s changes are visible and how he has become more confident in doing daily tasks, he found difficult before.
I feel so empowered as I understand how to support my son better. Would highly recommend this course to all parents who want to help their child and themselves.”
R’s Mum
By the end of this program, you will:
- Better understand how to help your child's sensory processing and motor skills for writing
- Identify the skills your child is missing and needs to develop
- Implement tried-and-tested FUN treatment activities to develop the skills your child actually need for writing
More than anything, you’ll be confident and inspired to tap into your own intuition to help your child continue to grow into a happy and confident writer, even after
our 10 weeks together ends.

CLOSING LETTER
I would like to leave you a message from the heart.
I know that there is so much information online and it’s hard to know what’s best for your child.
If now is not the right time to join Foundations for Writing, that’s ok. Stay in the free Helping Kids Write
FaceBook group for tips and resources.
Even if you don’t join now, you’re welcome to circle back in the future.
But waiting and seeing doesn’t get you the results you want. And your child is
getting more anxious, missing out on gross motor and fine motor play
experiences, and losing their confidence which impacts on all areas of life.
So, of course I’d love to see you in the next round of Foundations for Writing.
Whatever you decide, please listen to your heart and know that deep
inside you’ll know what’s the right choice for you because you know your child best.
Meanwhile, I’m rooting for you!
