One-to-One Tutoring
One hour (40 minutes online) one-to-one tutoring for your child's wellbeing and personal, social and emotional development.
Just as your child may require a tutor for maths or literacy they can also benefit from extra learning about how to look after their own mental health, develop their emotional intelligence and help to guide them through managing new experiences and situations.
Through a variety of planned fun activities including art, park trips (in person only), puppets and props we explore emotions, the brain, anxieties and pressures your child may be experiencing.
£50 (£40 for online) - 1 hour session
£225 (£180 online) - block of 5 sessions
£450 (not available online) - block of 10 sessions
*sessions take place during evenings/weekends throughout school term time, with limited availability during school holidays
"My daughter was feeling down about missing school after an accident and Sophie’s one-to-one session with her worked absolute wonders. Sophie’s creative approach captured the imagination and had a huge impact. My daughter still uses the techniques she learned from Sophie to manage her mental wellbeing. Sophie definitely has a magic touch with children."

My child seems happy can I still book in a session?
Absolutely! The ideal situation is that we develop these skills so that they can deal with difficult situations before they arise. These sessions are light and fun and are not interrogative or unsettling
How can I describe the sessions to my child?
It's up to you how you refer to the sessions but we recommend you call them 'Rainbow Time', 'Wellbeing Sessions' or 'Play Time" depending on the age of your child and what you think is best suited to them.

It is recommended that parents drop off their child but please speak to us regarding any concerns you have about this by emailing us at sophie@mindfulnessforlearning.com.
