Helping Kids provide our life coaching for children services in primary and secondary schools, reaching young people in the place that they spend the most time. The programme was created to provide the best support to children in collaboration with parents and teachers.
Helping Kids In Schools
We offer three key services to school and students:
There are a number of benefits of working in schools: travel time is minimised; the sessions are in a familiar location; and the daily schedule is agreed with teachers to avoid disruption of academic lessons. Teachers are debriefed at the end of each day, and full notes provided to parents and schools. There is the opportunity for parents to ask questions as well as get together to support one another. We can also create topic specific workshops for parents, students or staff on request.
We always offer a free pilot programme lasting for 8-10 weeks, depending on academic calendars and activities, arranged to be most convenient for the school. The school, students and parents receive the full service at no cost.
After the pilot programme the schools can take on the Life Coaching programme as an ongoing additional service. We can provide specific information about the different ways of funding this service.
All our coaches have a full disclosure DBS, practitioner insurance, first aid paediatric certificates and NSPCC safeguarding children certificates.
We offer a five session programme of 1:1 life coaching for kids and teenagers, providing total and undivided attention to the person we are working with, and achieving strong long lasting results.
While the situations we work with are varied, we summarise them in ABC: Anxieties, Behaviour, Confidence. Life coaching for children helps young people to deal with emotional limitations and beliefs that stop them from achieving their goals and enjoying their life. Through our specialised programme we ensure the young person builds their confidence to overcome any situation, however challenging. They also build their self-awareness and obtain techniques to use throughout their life – and often can bring these skills to the whole family.
The sessions are fun, personal and engaging. We use age appropriate techniques, games and activities in our life coaching for kids to ensure we build a strong relationship in which the person can feel safe to explore their feelings.
The programme consists of three main stages:
At this stage we work on building a relationship of mutual trust and understanding. We will use the most relevant approach for each person. It can be playing, drawing, or open talk. The goal is to ensure they feel emotionally safe to, eventually, explore their feelings
Here we work to place the young person in a position of strength. We build their confidence by increasing self-awareness of their talents and abilities, and create tailored techniques to be calm, focused, motivated and confident. We see children and teenagers regain their confidence and emotional strength.
Finally we address the root cause. Only when they are emotionally strong, we will work on identifying the limiting beliefs, fears or causes of anxiety, reframing them in a constructive way to allow them to move on with life. This stage will further reinforce their confidence and boost their resilience.
