Welcome. I’m Lami Tinam Gidado, a Play Therapist, Child development Specialist, and Advocate passionate about transforming lives through therapeutic play, cross-cultural dialogue, and early childhood development. With over two decades of experience working with children, educators, caregivers, and systems across Nigeria and beyond, I believe in the healing and empowering power of play.

This site offers a glimpse into my journey, work, and ongoing mission to create safe, nurturing environments where children, especially those with special needs can thrive. Whether you are an educator, researcher, caregiver, or fellow dreamer, I invite you to explore, connect, and collaborate.
