Show them how it feels, our kids coaching tools teach kids how to step into confidence. To do this we show them how it feel in their bodies. Zack George is on tour with @bbccin @steelthegladiator showing how we teach this to kids. So cool to see this live in action as part of Children In Need.
Every day, I am grateful for the privilege of doing this work—being a Kids Confidence Coach is deeply rewarding, especially when delivering immediate, life-changing support to young people. A Year 9 student was experiencing severe anxiety and a critical lack of self-belief. This manifested in physical tension, difficulty making eye contact, and near-total verbal freeze […]

“Our Y6 pupils loved working with coach Rosie on a number of different self esteem activities; they were totally engaged by her methods and ideas Their spirits were lifted during the hours they spent taking part in the session and we are excited to work with Happy Confident Kids again soon!”
We have been working at St Nicholas School in Kenilworth since xxxx delivering our 5 Week in the Wild workshops to over x children – and we have loved it. From starting at Year 6 (age x) then right down to age 4 in Reception. The course is tailored for both KS1 and KS2 althought […]

"Very welcoming teachers."
"Lavender bombing people."
"Being relaxed."
"I made a nest on my knee."
"Making the lavender bags, the smell made me really happy."
Glimmers are the tiny moments of joy, warmth, or connection that are easy to miss — but when you start noticing them, everything changes.
