Steph and the Storytime Crew
Steph and the Storytime Crew is a podcast of gentle, engaging stories that help kids regulate emotions, feel safe in their bodies, and navigate the ups and downs of growing up.
Created by therapist and mum Steph McCarter, each 15–30 minute story supports emotional resilience, self-worth, and nervous system regulation - covering everything from anxiety and big feelings to friendships, confidence, and self-trust.
While many families love the stories at bedtime, teachers and educators also use them in classrooms, calm corners, and transition times to support focus, connection, and emotional balance.
Perfect for ages 5 through to 12 (and the grown-ups who listen too), especially sensitive, deep-feeling, neurodivergent, or anxious kids who experience the world a little more intensely.
Blending storytelling with nervous system wisdom, Steph also supports families through neurodiversity coaching - helping parents better understand and support their beautifully unique kids.
Think: big feelings, funny animals, gentle tools, and moments of calm that kids actually enjoy.
New stories added regularly.

How Teamwork Makes the Dream Work
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
When Chloe the Cat and Dane the Diplodocus decide to build the ultimate jungle gym, things don’t exactly go to plan. Chloe wants everything to be perfect — measured, labelled, and symmetrical. Dane? Well… Dane prefers the “wing it and hope it doesn’t fall over” approach.
What could possibly go wrong? (Spoiler: everything.)
Join Steph and the Storytime Crew in this laugh-out-loud adventure about teamwork, flexibility, and learning that sometimes the biggest messes make the best memories.
It’s a story about perfectionism, patience, and embracing the beautiful chaos that happens when two very different brains build something together.
✨ Lesson highlights:
- There’s more than one way to create something amazing
- Teamwork means blending strengths, not bossing each other around
- Mistakes and messes = creativity in disguise
- Being perfect is overrated — fun beats flawless every time
So, my little legends… grab your toolkits (and maybe a helmet) and tune in for a wild, wobbly, and wonderfully funny ride through the jungle!
