Working with Marie
Hello
As a working mum, I understand the pull between work, home, and wanting the best for your children - while still trying to find a sense of balance for yourself. It can feel like a constant juggling act!
Creativity has always been part of my life, and I’ve encouraged it in my own children from a young age. I know how powerful it can be when children (and their parents) are given space to slow down, create, and be themselves.
I became a children’s coach to offer that space to others - a gentle, supportive environment where reflective children can express themselves and build confidence in a way that feels natural and supportive.
How do I do this?
Through small-group and 1:1 creative crafting sessions and a coaching-based approach, I provide a gentle, encouraging space for children to explore creativity, grow in confidence, and connect with others—without pressure or overwhelm. I help the children I work with find the curiosity and confidence to handle the tricky situations that life throws their way, and feel proud of their unique strengths. In 1:1 coaching, I also help the parents embed the learning and feel empowered to support their child’s wellbeing.
With a wellbeing theme running through my creative coaching sessions, we work on goals such as understanding and managing worries, developing a positive outlook, knowing how to prioritise self-care, and building self-belief. When children learn about these things in a fun way from an early age, it sets them up to achieve their dreams.
If you have a child who loves to create and prefers a calm, encouraging setting rather than a busy one, my 1:1 or group coaching sessions could be the perfect fit.

I work with children and their parents on a 1:1 basis in-person (Toddington or surrounding areas) or online.
My programmes are bespoke to the child’s needs and include stories, crafts, activities and games.
After an initial discussion, I design a personalised coaching plan using the Wise for My Size methodology. A typical coaching programme includes a minimum of five one-hour sessions as well as a beautiful story book for the child to keep. Any craft materials and resources we use are included in the coaching package.
