Know what to say about sex, even if you’re nervous

Certified sex educator helping parents make sex ed teachable

Kids are curious. When they start asking curly questions like….

How are babies made?
Why do bodies change?
What’s porn?

Or bring home language and ideas you weren’t expecting…

When that happens, it can be hard to know what to say, how much to explain or what to do next.

You do not need to become a sex education expert.

You need clear words, practical steps and guidance that fits your child, your family and your values.

I help you know what to say, how to say it and what to do next

As a family sex educator with 30+ years of clinical experience, my free and paid resources give you clear words, practical steps and guidance for the conversations most parents were never taught how to have.

In a way that fits your child and respects your faith, beliefs and family values.

Zero judgement. Age appropriate. No nonsense.

Because when your kids know they can talk to you about sex, they’re more likely to grow up informed, make safer choices and come to you when they need help. And that’s the real goal, right?

Meet Cath Hakanson, qualified family sex educator. Straight up.
Down to earth. Unshockable.

Sexual health nurse, therapist and author with a list of qualifications longer than your weekly grocery list.

I’ve been educating families about sex for more than 30 years. And as an autistic ADHDer and parent of neurodivergent kids, clear and explicit sex ed feels as natural to me as Vegemite on toast.

So when my kids started asking where babies come from (and why their baby brother’s penis sometimes poked out), I was reminded just how tricky it can be to find the right words in the moment, even when you know the facts.

That’s why I created Sex Ed Rescue – to give parents clear words, practical guidance and somewhere useful to turn when they feel unsure.

The more often you talk, the less pressure sits on any one conversation.

And your child learns that they can come back to you when they need information or help.

A crisis with my little kid saw me search for sex ed help online. Your support is comprehensive, non-judgemental sex ed for kids of any age! It’s part of our normal family conversations. Your resources are very calming and reassuring, great to have guidelines of how and when to talk, what topics to bring up. The book suggestions are my favourite, I send the list to everyone.

My child is donor egg conceived (now age 10) and has always known her origins. I have a health professional background and I wished to have age appropriate conversations with her. As a parent, it can be so overwhelming with the plethora of misinformation available – that’s why I searched for evidence based information from someone who is respected in their field. I really like your no nonsense and down-to-earth approach to opening up sex education discussions with my child. You don’t just explain things, you give easily understood directions and tips that are age appropriate to help talk to my child in an open and honest way.

Being a mother to two boys, I was just winging it with my own tools. Your resources are MUCH easier and less stressful. You give age appropriate content for learning about our bodies, sex, relationships, etc. THANK YOU for helping with these “awkward” convos.
