At Kids In The Middle, we understand that when life changes at home, it can spill over into work. Separation, co-parenting, and family stress can quietly affect how staff cope day to day — emotionally, mentally, and even physically. That’s where our Business Staff Support Service steps in.
Led by Leah Rando-Poller, an experienced teacher, integrative therapist, NLP master practitioner, and art therapist, this service blends practical tools with genuine understanding. Leah draws on more than 30 years of experience in education and wellbeing, along with her own lived experience as a parent and professional. This unique mix allows her to connect with people in a real, down-to-earth way.
Our focus is on helping workplaces care for their people, by giving staff the space and skills to manage life’s big transitions — so they can stay balanced, supported, and focused both at work and at home.
Life doesn’t stop at the office door. When employees are navigating separation, co-parenting, or family challenges, it can quietly affect focus, energy, and wellbeing. Kids In The Middle offers confidential, one-on-one sessions that help staff manage emotions, stress, and family transitions in a safe, supportive space. We guide parents to communicate more calmly, balance work and home life, and stay connected to their children during change.
When a business supports the wellbeing of its staff, everyone benefits. We partner with employers to build a workplace culture that values empathy, understanding, and balance. Our workshops and staff support programs help teams recognise the signs of stress and learn practical ways to support colleagues going through family transitions — without crossing professional boundaries. It’s about keeping people well, respected, and connected at work.
We help bridge the gap between personal life and professional performance. Through coaching , practical tools, and emotional support, we guide staff to manage conflict, strengthen family communication, and build routines that reduce overwhelm. When parents feel more stable at home, they show up stronger, calmer, and more focused at work — creating healthier teams and happier workplaces overall.
