About the play express
Are things a bit “off the rails” at home or at school?
Is your child going through a difficult time, struggling to express him or herself, or displaying challenging behaviour?
Growing up isn’t easy and can even be overwhelming at times. Life’s expectations and challenging circumstances can have a great impact on a child’s emotional and social development, which can leave a parent feeling discouraged and unsure how to best support their child.

the play express offers its services in English, Dutch and Afrikaans to children between the ages of 4 to 18 years old.
