    Etiquette to Trick or Treating in the Georges River area!

    Lastly, some housekeeping!

    Trick-or-treating is one of Halloween’s most beloved traditions, but there’s a bit of etiquette that comes with the fun to ensure a smooth, enjoyable experience for everyone. Here are a few key guidelines to keep in mind:

    1. **Only Knock on Decorated or Lit Homes** If a house has its lights off or isn’t decorated, it’s a polite signal that they aren’t participating in trick-or-treating. Respect their choice and move on to the next house.

    2. **Be Polite and Say “Thank You”** Good manners go a long way. Always thank the person handing out candy, whether they give you a big handful or just one piece.

    3. **Take One Treat Unless Invited for More** It can be tempting to grab a fistful of candy, but if a house has a bowl out or someone is handing out candy, make sure to take only what is offered. If they say, “Take as much as you’d like,” then feel free to grab a little extra.

    4. **Be Mindful of Time** Trick-or-treating typically happens early in the evening, so avoid knocking on doors too late. After 9:00 PM, it’s best to call it a night, as many families may be winding down.

    5. **Practice your Tricks** Brush up on those cool party tricks, Dad Jokes or dancing moves incase the home owners asks for a trick! You don’t want to be caught off guard if asked!!

    6. **Respect Other Trick-or-Treaters** If younger children are also out, be patient and give them space. Halloween is fun for all ages, so make sure everyone feels safe and included. By following these simple tips, you’ll ensure a fun, respectful, and sweet-filled Halloween night for everyone!

  • Fine Art Photography Will Change the Way You See Your Family Forever

    In an era where nearly everyone carries a camera in their pocket, professional family photography has evolved beyond simply capturing images—it’s about preserving memories with an artistic touch. But what makes Angelina Amelia’s family photography stand apart from a standard family portrait session? And why are more local families opting for this approach to tell their stories? 

    Local mother and photographer, Angelina Amelia, specialises in lifestyle and fine art family photography from Sydney’s Voyager Point. Known for her warm, whimsical, and emotive style, Angelina masterfully captures the enchantment of every stage of motherhood, from maternity to newborn and family portraits.

    When lifestyle family photography meets fine art, the result is a timeless, evocative portrayal of life’s most meaningful moments. By discovering the *extraordinary* in the everyday, Angelina’s art has become the preferred choice for many local families. As Angelina shares: *”Throughout my journey, I have always maintained a true love for life. I have a deep appreciation for life’s simple joys and cherish the beautiful blessings I’ve received. It wasn’t until I experienced my greatest blessing, falling pregnant with my daughter, that I decided to turn my passion for photography into my purpose. I want to tell your story, capture the magic in your life, and help you see the *extraordinary* in your everyday. I truly believe there is magic in everyday life, and I love that I can show this to you.”

    Angelina has a remarkable gift. Few photographers can do what she does: capture pure magic. I will treasure these images forever and will be grateful to her every time I look at them. I am so glad we chose her and I hope she will be available to capture more of our family moments in the future. Thank you, Angelina, for giving us such precious memories to hold onto.” ~ Dallas Metaculla

    Angelina’s photography goes beyond mere documentation—it creates. The simple, familiar moments of family life transform into visual masterpieces worthy of a gallery. These images carry emotional depth and tell stories that go beyond the typical “everyone smile” shot. Whether it’s a father reading to his daughter or a family laughing around a campfire, fine art photography invites you into these moments. Sometimes, the most powerful photographs are the quietest: a mother gently cradling her baby, a child deep in thought, or siblings sharing a silent connection. These intimate, artistically captured moments become timeless treasures. Angelina believes that life is fleeting, and before we know it, the years have passed, leaving us wondering where the time has gone. Preserving these precious memories and bottling up life’s magic is crucial. A professional photography session is an investment—but one that yields immeasurable returns. Your photos are like a charm bracelet, with each image representing a unique and meaningful moment. Strung together, they tell a beautiful visual story that holds deep sentiment and will be cherished for years to come. It is a timeless gift to yourself and your loved ones, one that only grows in value as time passes. 

    Every family has its own story, and Angelina Amelia photography celebrates that individuality. Whether your family is playful and energetic or quiet and introspective, her artistic approach allows your families true dynamics to shine. The goal isn’t just to achieve the perfect pose, but to capture a genuine expression of who you are.

    “Our journey with Angelina Amelia Photography was an emotional and unforgettable one. With a heart full of patience and compassion, she guided us through our newborn and family photoshoot, especially considering the unique circumstances surrounding our disabled daughter.” ~ Jessica Najjar

    Angelina takes the time to learn what makes your family unique. She captures moments that hold personal meaning to you—whether it’s baking together in the kitchen or enjoying a lazy afternoon picnic.

    Specializing in golden hour sessions, Angelina harnesses the beauty of natural light to create her signature warm and nostalgic images. 

    Her expertise in composition, light, and mood brings out the beauty in the unexpected, fleeting, and imperfect. She offers both outdoor sessions and in-home experiences, ensuring that every moment is comfortable and memorable. All clients receive a pre-session consultation, along with an FAQ & Style Guide, to make sure the session is as enjoyable as it looks on camera. Angelina provides access to a full client wardrobe for women, featuring brands like Co & Ry, Homebodii, Coven & Co, Hazel and Folk, and more, as well as exclusive discounts at Mama Rentals. Her newborn sessions include access to a wardrobe filled with beautiful wraps, blankets, knits, and handmade flower crowns, all within the comfort of your home.

    From the first contact to the moment you receive your gallery, Angelina ensures that your experience is heartfelt, genuine, and joyful. It’s not just about loving the final photos—you’ll love the memories made during the session. One of the greatest advantages of working with Angelina is the experience itself. These sessions are often relaxed and enjoyable, giving your family the freedom to connect and share meaningful time together. Whether it’s a cozy moment on the couch or an impromptu outdoor adventure, the session becomes less about the photo shoot and more about documenting a beautiful experience. Families leave not only with stunning images but also with cherished memories of the day. Her work is a blend of storytelling, emotion, and artistry, resulting in images that are as unique and beautiful as the families in them. When you look at these photographs, you don’t just see faces—you feel the love, connection, and joy that bind your family together. If you’re looking to capture yourself or your family in a way that will stand the test of time, consider a session with Angelina Amelia. Not only will you have stunning images to display in your home, but you’ll also have works of art that tell the story of your motherhood journey. Angelina states that the warmth extends beyond her images and your whole experience from initial contact right through to receiving your gallery is heartfelt, genuine and joyful. You will not only love your gallery but will love the memories you make. To get in touch with Angelina you can contact her via her Website

  • Jessica Skye Photography is capturing the beauty of YOUR Journey

    Like many of us you have probably thought about capturing your family with some professional photography but either never got around to it, told yourself you have nothing to wear, your hair isn’t right or you’re all to busy to come together, theres multitudes of reasons why it may not have happened yet. However each and every day we are telling our story, building on it and creating memories that deserve to be captured if not for us, for our children.

    Family photos connect us to those who came before. By letting your kids see your photos from the past and the present, they become connected to their own story.

    “My Fiancé and I had our engagement photos taken by Jess,She did an absolutely amazing job and to say that I didn’t cry when I first looked at them would be a lie!I’m so happy to have these photos as a memory with my fiancé taken at the spot he proposed! Could not recommend her enough!” ~ Mikayla

    Photography truly is a bridge to some of our happiest memories and are a way to evoke feelings and fondness to those moments including keeping memories that may no longer be possible close to our hearts.

    Jessica from Jessica Skye Photography is a coffee loving, travel obsessed, mother of 3 beautiful babies and a military wife. During deployments and home stays Jessica has learnt the importance of capturing all the real, raw and candid moments of her family in real time to not only document their journey but to capture the love and bond they share.

    Inspired by her own life and her 3 children Jessica states “I absolutely love photographing all things love, the love within a family, a new baby being brought home, the love of creating life or the love between couples. Documenting a story and journey in a special time in your life”. 

    “Jess was absolutely fantastic to work with! She made the family feel so comfortable right from the start. She captured absolutely stunning images while my boys had fun just being boys!! No forced poses.. all natural which we loved!!! highly recommend” ~ Michelle

    Based in Cronulla NSW, Jessica dedicates her days to travelling all over Sydney, helping families document important moments in life by capturing the candid, real & raw imperfect moments.

    Jessica’s style comes from her belief that “you can’t put a price on capturing special moments” by focusing on creating a beautiful client experience and capturing the moment and memories she would want captured. 

    Life happens everyday and there’s not many moments in life that are considered priceless but Jessica Skye Photography is dedicating her days to capturing those priceless moments for you to treasure before they become a distant memory.

  • The local plumber connecting to customers by more than just pipes!

    Believe it or not most people go about their days not thinking about what’s going on behind the walls or under their homes. Our days are busy and we tend not to want to have to think about plumbing issues. However, something as minor as a leaky tap that drips as little as twice a minute wastes nearly 4 litres of water in one week! Now that’s something worth thinking about.

    This is where the expertise of a qualified plumber is needed to not only provide a thorough inspection of all your plumbing issues but to accurately identify the root cause of the problem ultimately saving you stress and money. 

    “Another thumbs up for Plumbsavers, we finally got around to replacing all the toilets in the house, Scott was recommended by an overwhelming number of locals so we gave him a call and he came straight away for a quote.

  • Clinical Psychology from the comfort of wherever you are.

    Psychology is the study of people’s behaviour, cognitive, attitude, performance, and mental functioning. A unique tool used to better understand and help people with psychological disorders, treat mental health problems, improve the education system, workplace behaviour, relationships and much more. 

    Therefore throughout our lives there may be times when we need a little extra help navigating a certain situation or multiple things at once, but finding that help can sometimes prove difficult. Especially since Covid.

    With mental health issues on the rise, the public system is stretched and there are lengthy wait times, which makes accessing the correct resources tricky.

    Local mum and Clinical Psychologist, Tia from @connect2healthpsych is endeavouring to close the gap of accessing therapy by providing telehealth clinical psychology appointments from the comfort of wherever you are.

    Growing up Tia was often in her own world and introverted. Spending a lot of time thinking about and being quite curious as to why people would act or think the way they do. Spending her days analysing her surroundings, Tia enjoyed helping her friends through hard times, finding it rewarding being able to support people emotionally.  Stating “It always came naturally to me, and although the steps to become a Clinical Psychologist are very difficult, I am glad to have stuck it out during the academic years”.

    “Not the whole process is rewarding, However, at the end when goals are achieved, moods are improved and clients are genuinely excited about something in their life; those things are the most rewarding for me”

    Further, “The field of Psychology is never-ending and research and treatments are constantly evolving and so I am always on my feet and constantly learning. I find it exciting when I can go back to clients with new things I have learnt, and add more to their therapy plan!”

    Prior to 2022, Tia had always worked between three roles and always for others. Since having her second baby and discovering that her time is now more valuable than ever, Tia was met with the familiar juggle of being a mum and career women not wishing to give up her whole career. With this, something inside of Tia was ignited and she found herself wanting to improve.

    Tia has now brought to life, Connect 2 Health Psychology and after noticing the uptake of Telehealth since the COVID Pandemic, she is now offering telehealth appointments on a part time basis and is endeavouring to provide a high level of continuity of care for men and women with her Telehealth Services.

    Telehealth provides a bridge to accessing therapy to those that cannot attend in person. Recent research has indicated that for some issues, telehealth is useful and is comparative to face to face therapy. However, these are generalised findings and the usefulness and benefits are personal from person to person.

    As a Clinical Psychologist registered with AHPRA and with 13 years experience primarily in the hospital and health sector, which includes Chronic Pain and Neurological rehabilitation (Stroke, Parkinsons, MS, cancer) Tia brings a wealth of Knowledge to the table and with two small children, she also understands only too well, the multiple hats that women need to wear incorporating this into her approach to her work.

    Mental health issues are currently on the rise and with clinical psychology in demand, choosing the right Psychologist is a decision we don’t wish to make lightly. Tia states that “people often look for particular characteristics when choosing a Psychologist” and with her range of expertise, this is the point of difference that her therapy delivers. Connect 2 Health Psychology is able to provide private services which people often have to wait lengthy periods for in public services, allowing Tia’s expertise to be extremely valuable to her clients. Stating “People do not have to be on a lengthy public service waitlist, to receive such valuable support. I understand too well, the need for convenient and accessible therapy. I am incredibly passionate about women’s related issues, anxiety disorders, depression, confidence issues, chronic pain pain/adjustment to illness, and those experiencing mental health concerns for the first time.”

    “Being of south-east Asian background, those of similar backgrounds find my approach quite comforting and understanding, and I often see people who struggle with culturally specific concerns.”

    Connect 2 Health Psychology is offering a range of therapies to young adults and adults throughout their lifespan and is most passionate about:

    Depression

    Women’s related issues and health: This includes fertility, ante/postnatal period, new mothers, miscarriage, empty nesters, endometriosis/PCOS & confidence issues

    Anxiety disorders: Social anxiety, generalised anxiety, OCD, panic disorder, and agoraphobia

    Adjustment to and management of Chronic Pain and health related illnesses

    If you are curious about Telehealth and wonder whether it may be suitable for you, Connect 2 Health Psychology offers a free 10 minute initial consultation to address concerns and answer any questions.

    If you feel that this service may be what you have been looking for, Connect 2 Health Psychology is Open Tuesdays and Thursdays from 9am till 4pm (or by appointment) and can be contacted at www.connect2healthpsychology.com.au and info@connect2healthpsychology.com.au

  • The all inclusive Gym set to change your life!

    If you are someone that has struggled to make the time and commitment to a commercial gym due to things like lock in contracts, intimidation, lack of knowledge when it comes to the equipment or maybe you just didnt find that sense of community that you were hoping for, whatever the reason it seems for years people, especially women have put making the time for the gym into the too hard basket.

    What if I said that that there was an option for creating a sense of community, helpful trainers to educate you to avoid injuries or burnout, a flexible timetable to suit busy mums, an intimate environment that avoids overcrowding, fun classes with a point of difference, like dance fit, a free creche, no lock in contracts and opportunities to get your children involved!

    Sounds amazing right!

    Local husband and wife team Angie and Jordan Smith are the owners of the brand new local business PT Peak Fitness. If anyone understands the struggle of mum life and reaching your goals it is owner and operator Angie who has spent a majority of her life as a mum working with PGA NSW then a full time stay at home mum for several years before moving into the fitness industry.

    In late 2019 Jordan and Angie started their own fitness journey with weekly PT sessions, even during the pandemic and lockdowns they continued their training and worked towards their goals being trained regularly in their backyard or in parks.

    Angie states that she truly found her passion during her fitness journey and noticed her physical and mental health improving and now wants to share this with her local community, encouraging people and to educate how exercise can genuinely transform your life bringing with it a healthy body and mind.

    Together Angie and Jordan have brought to life this brand new, privately owned fitness studio located above Coles in Oatley equipped with an extensive range of brand new cardio and strength building exercise machines including free weights.

    Offering nearly 40 group class workouts weekly with 7 fun and energetic exercise programs including Hiit and Yoga, plus a DanceFit program, Youth fitness classes for 10-15 year olds run during school terms and Senior group Fitness, Stretch & Strength fitness making it an all inclusive fitness space for all ages and fitness levels.

    Qualified trainers also provide Personal Training sessions customised to everyone’s fitness goals. 

    Angie and Jordans core value is to create a fun, motivated fitness environment, providing professional services, sharing their fitness spirit, helping & encouraging people to achieve a healthier lifestyle in the local community. 

    Taking credit as a privately owned business and not a Franchised fitness studio allowing PT Peak Fitness to be the flexible gym that you are looking for! Being able to adjust, customise or modify their programs is proving to be the draw card for busy parents.

    Angie states that at PT Peak Fitness, ‘Our core value is to create a fun, motivated fitness environment, providing professional services, sharing our
    fitness spirit, helping & encouraging people who are wanting to achieve a healthier lifestyle in our local community’. 

    Facilities are available from 5:30-8pm Monday-Friday to ensure the quality of the training sessions.
    A maximum of 5 bookings per hour are taken for use of the facilities to avoid overcrowding, intimidation, noise and to really focus on creating that sense of community.

  • Timeless Imagery allowing time to stand still with Marie Berroa Photography

    Owner Marie Berroa taken by andre&dominique

    As the saying goes, you will only regret the things you didn’t do. Like the photos you didn’t take and the memories you didn’t capture. 

    Too often life just happens and we forget or are too busy to capture life’s moments with the people that matter most. 

    Whether it be expecting a new baby with all those little wrinkles and folds, those beautiful eyelashes or those tiny newborn feet or maybe its celebrating the magic of pregnancy and capturing your baby bump, the birth of a precious child or simply capturing a time with your family allowing time to stand still for a second while in fact it’s going at lightning speed around us and those little babies are growing before our eyes, life is precious and its happening right now! 

    No one has ever regretted investing into photography. In fact they are very glad they did! We always turn to our photos to remind us of special times and people. From those hazy newborn days to all the memories yet to come, or purely just to soak up the love for one another in an outdoor family session, whatever the occasion it’s an investment you will treasure the most. 

    Can’t thank Marie enough for capturing our beautiful baby boy in a Newborn
    Photoshoot. Marie was warm, kind, patient and gentle in all aspects of handling
    Dean throughout the +3hr session. She was extremely well prepared, and
    considered all my requests in terms of themes, aesthetics, type of photos and
    general vibe I was trying to achieve. Our photos are incredible, and will serve as
    loved memories for many years to come. Can’t recommend her highly enough
    “. ~ Jessica Woods

    Owner and operator Marie Berroa of Marie Berrora Photography specialises in newborn, maternity and family portraiture, capturing timeless imagery and forever memories with the people you love most!

    Commencing her career as a newborn photographer many years before starting her own business, Marie has always had a passion for photography and states that she “feel’s very lucky to be doing what I love”. 

    2022, marks a huge milestone for Marie, who has been running Marie Berroa Photography for 10 years. Marie states it’s been quite a journey by way of learning and perfecting her craft through attending courses, workshops and endless practice, and then naturally creating her own style. 

    Using her years of experience, Marie is able to service her clients by meeting their expectations and creating timeless, natural and beautiful images. Marie’s tenacity and dedication to her craft is evident through her imagery stating that what lights her up inside is the hope that her clients look at their images in 20 year’s time, and still love them just as much as the day they were taken, stating, watching families grow and documenting their child’s milestones is such privilege and an honour.

    Marie’s approach to each session is for her clients to ultimately enjoy the whole experience, relax and just have some fun allowing her to capture candid and the natural beauty of her clients, especially the ones who are usually behind the camera. Only too often, it’s mum who’s thinking about the memories being made, attempting to capture it all but that unfortunately leaves a very significant person out of these memories. Many times, Mum’s mention to Marie that they have so many photos of their children and husband with the kids but not many with them in it, or at least good ones they love!

    Investing into professional photos is an opportunity for mums to dress up, have fun and feature in the photos that they would love to frame.

    The first thing you will notice about Marie is her personable nature and flexibility in her approach to business, Marie truly loves to provide a wonderful experience not just great imagery. You will instantly feel at ease with Marie’s light shining through while capturing the love through her lens. 

    Marie’s studio is located in the local suburb of Lugarno as well as a mobile service that covers the Georges River area.

    If you are looking to invest into treasuring your families precious memories you can contact Marie via Facebook or instagram @marieberroaphotography.

    Lastly, Marie is generously offering our local community a 10% discount on newborn and family packages to help you take the first step into capturing the people you love when you mention Mums of the Georges River. 

    *This offer must be mentioned at the time of booking.

  • How inclusive speech therapy is giving families the help they need.

    When it comes to our children’s confidence there are a number of factors that can affect their ability to clearly communicate and therefore express themselves. 

    Evidence has shown that 1 in 7 people have a communication disability with 20% of four year olds struggling to understand and use language. 

    Delays in speech can significantly impact on reaching milestones, cause frustration, learning difficulties or even social isolation.

    Research supports working on skills at a young age to achieve the best outcomes and preventing or reducing lifelong implications making early intervention key!

    Local business Bambini Health is a paediatric allied health clinic located in Kingsgrove offering speech pathology and occupational therapy to children of all abilities. Predominantly, working with children aged 0-18 years.

    When it comes to Speech pathology, Qualified therapists can work on a range of skills including speech sounds (pronunciation), language (understanding and expressing), stuttering, play, reading, writing and spelling to improve confidence, reach milestones and overcome delays. 

    Whereas qualified Occupational Therapists can support a wide variety of skills which can significantly improve a child’s ability to engage in their everyday living tasks. Therapists can work on sensory-regulation, emotional-regulation, behaviour, attention and concentration, and academic/daily living
    skills. 

    Following evidence based approaches, Bambini health dedicate themselves to children everyday believing that every child deserves the opportunity to be unique and achieve goals, ultimately making a huge difference in the lives of children every day. 

    Working with children and their families to help achieve goals is evident through Bambini’s passion and understanding of the importance of communicating with families about their child’s goals and progress. 

    You will notice when working with Bambini Health their priority lies with helping families achieve their individual goals by valuing the family dynamic and encouraging families to be an active part of the therapy process by offering parent/family coaching to support parents abilities to cope with any
    daily challenges that maybe of concern.

    A holistic approach is taken by therapists who will go beyond the typical 1 on 1 service and look at the child’s whole family and support network. This includes engagement and support in their nature environments including day care and school with therapists. Bambini Health are not only experienced working within school environments & providing professional learning to educators they say they enjoy every chance they get to to build relationships with the local community such as child cares, health professionals and schools. 

    Bambini Health believe in creating a welcoming environment that families feel comfortable, confident and safe in, however their passion doesn’t stop with their clients and is also extended to their staff as well. Bambini believe that by creating a workplace for their therapists it allows them to achieve their own professional goals, strive to continue to learn and grow to ultimately provide the
    best care to clients.

    Owner and operator, Elisa Alberici states in her experience as a speech pathologist it has allowed her too develop the tools she needs to help clients and families. Having learnt the importance of continuing to learn and keep up to date with changes in her scope of practice and the importance of
    communicating with families about their child’s goals and progress.

    The impact of communication difficulties can affect a child’s ability to function in their daily life, like speaking in class, ordering a meal in a restaurant or looking for a job. It can impact on their interactions at home, work and socially as well as affect their confidence when building connections.

    These difficulties can affect learning at school including literacy, numeracy and social skills. Long term impacts include poor academic performance and social isolation. It can also impact on a child’s emotional development and cause feelings of frustration when trying to communicate their needs,
    ideas and opinions. 

    Early intervention is the key to preventing or reducing those lifelong implications, therefore if you have concerns about your child’s development and feel that your child could benefit from therapy with Bambini Health, they are offering complimentary 15 minute phone calls to families who have
    concerns about their child and may be questioning if they need further support. This conversation will specifically go through concerns and advise whether Bambini’s trained professionals recommend assessment or therapy.
