Kids Coach Corner: Helping Kids Thrive
I've been coaching kids since 2017 its been an incredible journey. I have learnt so much. Each child and young person that I help is an individual which means I keep learning everyday , which I love!
My own journey into the amazing world of kids coaching
Like a lot of us, it started with me trying to figure stuff out. I learned a lot about myself. I went from feeling ‘stuck’ about things to feeling like, "Yeah, this is it!"
Seeing first hand how coaching can actually make a real difference in people's lives (and quickly)– after spending years as a police officer (16 years ), I decided to switch gears big time and retrained to become a coach. The change I needed.
Then, this epic thing happened. Parents who I had been coaching started bringing their kids to see me. And bam! Everything clicked. It was like finding that missing piece of the puzzle, knowing exactly where I was meant to be.

Now, I run Happy Confident Kids with my amazing business partner, Miranda. We're in our third year, and things are next levelling! Our easy-to-use but super effective tools – based on brain training such as easy re wiring techniques and creating new helpful pathways – will reach even more kids and give a real boost to parents, teachers, and coaches like you.

So, what's the secret sauce? What makes what we do actually work?
It's pretty simple, to be honest. We keep it simple honest and real. We've taken these science-y tools that can make a big difference and made them fun and easy for everyone to get – not just the kids, but us grown-ups too.
That's why this little corner of our blog is for you. Maybe you're already coaching kids and totally get the joys (and the occasional chaos), or maybe it's something you're thinking about diving into. You might even be one of our fantastic Happy Confident Kids team!
We're here to help you on this journey. If you're all about giving kids those simple tricks to find their calm and feel like they can take on anything, then stick around.
We're all about empowering kids (age 4 to 18) and the grown-ups that support them, with easy-peasy ways to feel good, especially when they need it most, and we throw in a big dose of nature 'because that stuff is amazing! (that's our Award-Winning In the Wild Programme in action).
