Wild Hearts Wellbeing

A place where children can simply be themselves

Wild Hearts Wellbeing is a heart-centred program for children in Grades 4–7 who would benefit from a little more confidence, connection, calm and self-belief.

In a world that can feel busy, overwhelming and full of pressure, Wild Hearts offers children a chance to slow down, breathe, connect and remember how amazing they truly are.

It's a place to laugh, create, move, make friends, learn new skills and discover that they don't have to change who they are to belong.

More Than Just a Well-being Program

Wild Hearts is a unique blend of mindfulness, creativity, movement, emotional wellbeing and fun.

Through games, discussions, creative activities, relaxation and connection, children learn valuable life skills while feeling supported and encouraged every step of the way.

Many children who attend Wild Hearts are sensitive, thoughtful, creative or deep-feeling souls who simply need a safe space where they feel understood.

What We Explore

Throughout the term we explore topics such as:

✨ Confidence and self-belief

✨ Understanding emotions

✨ Healthy friendships and boundaries

✨ Gratitude and positive thinking

✨ Managing stress and overwhelm

✨ Trusting themselves and their inner voice

✨ Kindness, resilience and self-worth

✨ Mindfulness and relaxation

What a Session Feels Like

Every Wild Hearts session is different, but you'll often find children:

🌿 Sitting together in circle sharing stories and laughter

🎨 Creating, drawing and expressing themselves

💃 Moving, dancing and playing games

🌊 Learning calming tools for everyday life

🧘 Relaxing with guided meditations and mindfulness activities

💛 Building friendships and genuine connections

Most importantly, they're having fun while developing skills that support their emotional wellbeing.

Tools for Life

Wild Hearts helps children build an inner toolkit they can draw on throughout childhood and beyond.

They discover ways to:

💛 manage worries and big feelings

💛 build confidence

💛 feel calmer when life feels overwhelming

💛 navigate friendships

💛 trust themselves

💛 care for their mental and emotional wellbeing

These are life skills they'll carry with them into high school and beyond.

Growing Wild & Strong

Just like a tree needs strong roots to flourish, children need connection, confidence and support to thrive.

Wild Hearts provides a nurturing space where children can strengthen those roots while discovering who they are.

Through friendship, creativity, mindfulness and fun, children learn to trust themselves, build resilience and grow with confidence.

Helping young hearts grow strong from the inside out.

Kind Words From Our Wild Hearts Families 💛

Our daughter had previously experienced anxiety and found it challenging to expand her friendships, as she had a quieter personality. She was soon to be approaching high school, so we decided to give ‘Wild Hearts’ classes a try, in the hope of challenging her to make new friends in a completely new environment. When we told her about the classes, her response to us was, ‘I would never do that to my daughter.’

Although, the response we got after her first ‘Wild Hearts’ class was, ‘I loved it,’ and she has been going ever since! She tells us that she never wants to stop going! She has gained confidence, made new friends, become happier within her own self-identity, and gained calming strategies to deal with everyday challenges.

She absolutely loves her teacher Kylee, who is extremely nurturing, loving, and truly cares about the wellbeing of the students in her classes. It is a wonderful gift to have another adult figure, outside of the family circle, who our daughter trusts and loves.

Thank you for what you do!

Kristin

Empowerment and joy are the two words that come to mind when I think about the journey my daughter has been on since joining Wild Hearts and having Kylee in our lives.

She loves meeting new friends, exploring emotions, discussing the ups and downs of being a girl in this world, and most importantly, dancing her worries away to let in more joy.

Kylee is an amazing guide and mentor who genuinely cares about empowering these girls with the tools to support their mental health and well-being.

When I asked my daughter to describe Wild Hearts, she said with great expression,

“It’s the best thing ever!”
