Sunny Kids Shine

A very warm welcome to Sunny Kids Shine®. Passionate about working together for a brighter future.

Hello, my name is Jodie Smart and I introduce mindfulness and help make big feelings child size! Teaching children how to become a Feelings Detective,® whilst supporting parents, carers and professionals to be their Emotional Coach!

Sunny Kids Shine® was created in 2018 to support children to grow up as secure, resilient and content young people and SHINE stands for Secure, Healthy, Independent, Nurtured and Empowered!

I am passionate about working together for a brighter future and supporting Parents, Carers and Professionals alike, to create emotionally enabling environments for children. I firmly believe that all children should be able to develop a love and zest for learning and life, able to shine their light to become the best versions of their true authentic selves. I perceive all behaviour to be communication and my unique programme is all about empowering you and your children, with the tools you need to feel able to N.A.M.E. your feelings in healthy ways, which stands for Notice, Accept, Manage and Express.

I also support your children to build a secure personal, social and emotional foundation to help them shine through school and beyond.

"Whilst we cannot predict the future for our children, we can equip them with the tools they need to shine through any storms they may face - as secure, resilient and content young people."

Entrepreneur and Feelings Detective® creator - Jodie Smart

I am absolutely delighted to announce that Sunny Kids Shine recently received this incredible award from Global Health & Pharma for the second year running. The rigorous judging process included undergoing the research and interview stages, as well as submitting supporting evidence. I was absolutely over the moon and blown away to find out that I had won 'Most Dedicated Children's Mental Health Service - UK.' I honestly could not believe it. A huge thank you so much to each and every one of you for all of your love and support, this is truly amazing!

"Jodie is lovely and her workshops are very well planned with very useful content. Lots to learn on the day and to take away. We'll be back." - Belen

"Jodie is amazing and her wisdom has been really invaluable with providing strategies that I can use with my 7 year old daughter. We also love love love the Rainbow of Feelings cards which provided us with some brilliant dialogue around the fact that ALL feelings are valid! I’m so excited to see Jodie and Sunny Kids Shine just go from strength to strength!" - Bea

"Our sessions with Jody were always really fun. She does have a special way to communicate with young children and was able to make my son smile in the most adverse situation. She has also gone the extra mile in supporting us as a family and at school. Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!" - Clara
