What the course offers

Nine foundational principles grounded in neuroscience and clinical experience
Real, effective tools for supporting an anxious or emotionally intense child
Short, focused audio lessons built for parents with no spare time
Works alongside therapy or even before you access professional support
Optional worksheets for applying ideas straight away  

Why this works

You’re not broken. Neither is your child. The usual parenting scripts fall short when anxiety dominates.

This programme helps you understand the how and why of the behaviour and respond in a way that gives your child space to grow, feel safe, and manage big feelings.

This is not about fixing or “managing” your child. You adapt your parenting with kindness, clarity, and purpose.

Immediate results

While deeper change takes time, many parents see shifts within days:
fewer power struggles, more cooperation, increased confidence in both theirs and their child’s.

You learn tools that offer a foundation for real emotional resilience in your family.

Testimonials

Huddle Wisdom is a fantastic resource for parents and caregivers looking after children, particularly those displaying emotional or behavioral difficulties. Dr Davin Tan has put together a set of resources which make great sense to anyone seeking to reflect on parenting and childcare practices and the impact on children of various different approaches. The focus of Huddle Wisdom is on providing empathy-driven care, allowing for the recognition and management of anxiety related behavioural problems in particular. 
This serves to improve the relationship between children and caregivers and is universally applicable from minor struggles to more serious situations. Dr Tan has based his approach on a wide range of experience and research gleaned from a career as a child and adolescent psychiatrist and forensic psychiatrist in both New Zealand and Australia and also incorporates his own knowledge and wisdom from parenting two children. He is an active supporter of teachers and other educators.
I can personally attest to the value of the courses provided by Huddle Wisdom, as well as the Huddle Wisdom courses. Dr Tan provides free value to the community through his podcast. I thoroughly recommend Dr Tan's programs to parents and caregivers, particularly those facing challenges with behavioral and emotional issues, however the techniques he describes could be equally useful in an educational environment. 
For those who are at a loss as to where to begin, and for those with more knowledge and experience, Huddle Wisdom offers a uniquely effective take on helping children to regulate their emotions across a wide variety of situations.

I bought the ‘Practice of Empathetic Discipline’ course after listening to the Huddle Wisdom podcast and reading Davin’s blog. Having empathy for your children sounds like a no-brainer, so I was keen to learn how to incorporate the concept into how I discipline my three kids. I was happy to see that Davin outlines a systematic approach that’s pretty easy to remember and employ in different parenting situations.
 
I’ve read quite a few other parenting books and articles in the past, which were all valuable but left me feeling like I owned a collection of disconnected methods and ‘tricks’. Probably the biggest thing I’ve taken way from the ‘Practice of Empathetic Discipline’ course is I now feel that Davins' concept of ‘empathetic parenting’ will be the underlying foundation for every other parenting resource I use. It’s something I can fall back on during those emotional storms when everything else goes out the window. I only wish I had been given Davin’s work at the beginning of my parenting journey.
-Van Taylor, Environmental Educator
*the Practice of Empathic Discipline is the previous name of the 'Guiding Anxious Kids' Course. I.e. it is the same.
  
 
 
"I have been using and recommending the course and resources "The Practice of Empathic Discipline" with many of the families I work with in private practice. The resources are informative, easy to understand and include such practical exercises and activities. Feedback from the families I work with is that these resources have been helpful particularly for parents of children with ADHD."
-Ilia Lindsay, Clinical Psychologist, Psychology Lead at Komodo
 
 
 
Davin's course, Empathic Guidance for Anxious Sensitive Kids, has been a game changer for my parenting. These days there's so much parenting advice on the internet, but it can be difficult to know what's good advice and what's not. It gets even more confusing when different sources of information contradict each other. Davin's course outlines a solid foundation for parenting. I love his emphasis on nurturing the relationship between parent and child. This caring approach just 'feels right'. The course doesn't teach a bunch of parenting tricks or hacks to get your kids to act the way you want. Instead, it outlines a parenting philosophy that can be adapted to different situations. This has given me heaps more confidence in my parenting. When faced with a parenting challenge, I now approach the situation by asking myself "what would a Huddle Wisdom parent do?" 
-Dr Andrew Manning, General Practitioner
 
 
 
"As a parent of two - one highly sensitive and the other, anxious - I have found Dr Tan’s podcasts truely helpful. His content, tips and advice is authentic, informative and teaches you how to think ‘outside the box’ with regards to handling the emotional chaos that comes with parenting. The courses offered by Dr Tan via the Huddle Wisdom have also been fantastic at providing those practical steps to put what is learnt into ‘practice’. I have found that pretty much all of the stories and situations discussed really resonates with me and I’m sure so many others out there. Overall, it’s been amazing having this content at my very fingertips ! "
