Mum-of-two Nikki says she’s constantly surprised by how quickly her kids can create online content.

But as a parent, it’s a delicate balancing act to help kids navigate the digital world, understand what they’re seeing, and keep screen time safe.

"I'm always looking for support on how to navigate parenting. It’s this battle between understanding that today’s kids are on screens—they need access—but also making sure it’s a safe place for them," she says.

Through the Bupa Foundations we are supporting Black Dog Institute run Teens & Screens, a set of free, evidence-based resources for junior and senior students to help students develop healthy screen habits, manage their digital wellbeing, and engage critically with online content
