Danyah is honoured to be a speaker at The Everything ECE Summit this year. With 30+ expert speakers, the summit is packed with powerful conversations to support your growth and professional practice.
Danyah’s Day One session, When We’re All At Sea, will focus on the powerful role that oral storytelling plays in supporting young children’s language, literacy and learning – and in shaping how they relate to the world around them.
Each day’s presentations are free to watch for 24 hours, so you can tune in when it works for you. There will also be live panel discussions with the speakers.
‘I have learned that I can tell a story and engage 120 children; I have learned there is magic in everyday objects and books are only the beginning. It will stay with me and change my teaching forever.’

In a fast-paced digital world, how do we bridge the gap between speed and stillness, screens and connection and our deep human need for collaboration and belonging?
At the heart of this interactive 5-part programme – across 20 hours of learning – is the intention to support adults in raising secure, creative and resilient young children. Combining the art of oral storytelling with contemporary child development insights participants will explore key EYFS themes all within the context of the urgent issues and challenges of today.
‘Thank you for an incredible course. It’s given me loads of inspiration and tools to enhance my professional work and in my family life.’

‘From the moment you started the reading I felt in safe hands.’
If you’re at a crossroads, facing doubt or looking for new clarity, tarot offers insight to help you move forward with ease. I’ve worked with the Osho Zen Tarot Deck since the 1990’s, combining storytelling and intuition with the ancient wisdom of the cards. Rooted in the present moment, each reading is a mirror, a reflection of your own inner truth.
‘Danyah’s warmth and deep insight into the Osho cards helps to bring clarity, perspective and increasing my awareness of the possibilities open to me.’
