Our story
We met in 2015 when Nicole joined Clear Sky Children Charity, founded by Sophia, in the role of Chair Trustee.
We worked together for 3 years before our shared passion for childrens’ wellbeing drove us both to start to wonder.
We got curious about whether we could take the therapeutical skills from Play Therapy that helps children who have experienced trauma, and adapt these skills to be able to help families facing everyday challenges build closer connections and set children up for better emotional wellbeing.
Treasure Time was born to help families be healthy and happy together by investing in strengthening their relationship and communication through play!
What Nicole’s proud of
- Raising 2 fun loving, playful boys
- Spending over 20 years working on well known children’s brands like NSPCC and Sainsbury’s Active Kids
- Being the Chair of Trustee at Clear Sky Charity
- Being on the board of Ella’s Kitchen and helping fill up millions of tiny tummies with healthy food
- Being brave and hang-gliding in Rio
What Sophia’s proud of

Together we found a magic recipe that helps children and parents connect through play
Treasure Time is just like baking a cake. It brings all the important ingredients together.
Our recipe for growing up happy:
One box of toys
One mat for the floor
A bowl full of imagination
A generous helping of creativity
A dollop of presence
A whole lot of noticing
A sprinkle of curiosity
Give it tender love and care for 30 minutes a week
And at the end of 6 weeks, voila! Snuggle up and enjoy the closeness you’ve made together.
Growing up happy
