  • Our public offerings are designed for those who work in the care and relational sectors, and/or are carers or caregivers. If what we offer feels resonant for you, please feel very welcome to come along!

    We use the term ‘practitioner’ as a broad umbrella descriptor - you can check out our definition below.

  • We use the term ‘practitioner’ to define any relational or care sector workers, including healthcare, education, mental health, disability, community services, social work, and other care-sector roles.

    If you work in a role that is relational or care-oriented, you are welcome to join any offering that is for ‘practitioners’.

  • Relational work involves sustained care, emotional labour, and responsibility for the wellbeing of others. This includes healthcare, education, mental health, disability, community services, social work, and other care-sector roles where people regularly work with stress, distress, trauma, and human complexity.

    These professions are essential — but often emotionally demanding. Taking Good Care exists to support more sustainable ways of caring and working for peoples, teams and organisations.

  • Yes. All of our offerings are trauma-informed, systems-aware, strengths-based and feminist and gender-affirming.

  • We offer both online and in-person programs and trainings. For online programs, we use a combination of third-party platforms, including Zoom. and LearnWorlds. For in-person offerings, we are based in Naarm, Victoria (Australia).

  • We offer an adapted version of this training within organisational settings. Please reach out to us directly to discuss: jo@takinggood.care

  • Yes absolutely. If your employer is covering the costs, the only engagement between them and Taking Good Care will be related to payment. We do not provide employer reports, evaluations, or assessments for our programs or trainings.
