Neuroscience
Children learn how their brain works and why they feel the way they do, so they can understand and manage their emotions.
Our mission and approach
Giving every child a toolkit for life
Science-based wellbeing and inclusion programmes for children, educators and families, at every stage.
Our mission
We believe the best time to support a child's wellbeing is before a crisis arrives. myHappymind teaches children, from early years through to secondary, the science-backed habits, tools and language to understand their minds and thrive. Mental health isn't something you wait to treat. It's something you build from the start.
Our scientific approach
Our approach is built on evidence-based neuroscience and positive psychology. myHappymind is NHS-backed, and an independent evaluation by the Centre for Mental Health found it supports children’s emotional regulation, self-esteem and wellbeing.
Positive psychology
Character strengths, gratitude, relationships and goal-setting build resilience, self-esteem and wellbeing.

Our five key philosophies
Proactive, not reactive
Mental health activity is often focused on supporting individuals when they face challenges. Whilst this is critical, we believe that it’s also important to support individuals in building their resilience and self-esteem proactively. Prevention is at the heart of what we do.
Reversing stigma
Ensuring that individuals understand the science behind how their brains work and how to impact their self-esteem and resilience is at the heart of what we do. When people get the why, they take action.
A systemic approach
We passionately believe in supporting both Staff and Parents’ wellbeing alongside the children. That's why we provide a CPD-certified wellbeing programme for all staff in the schools and nurseries we support, along with a state-of-the-art Parent App, so the learning journey can continue at home.
Fun to learn, easy to teach
myHappymind is easy to teach via our digital lessons and resources, which are all pre-made for teachers, which means planning time is minimal. We also believe mental health education can and should be fun; we integrate quizzes, music, games, and our lovely characters to make myHappymind fun to learn!
Equitable access for all
myHappymind is tailored to neurodiverse children, with a dedicated Special Schools programme and adaptations for children who are hard of hearing or partially sighted. Our trauma-informed approach means every child’s experiences and needs are met with sensitivity and care.
