How We Help

Video Courses for Children, Parents and Professionals
Video lessons you can watch with children and families in class/therapy rooms to teach them emotional and psychological skills. Video lessons you can watch yourself to update your skills.

Articles and Helpful Printouts
Activity sheets, discussion guides, "at home practice sheets" to use with children in session/classrooms to help them learn how to manage frustration, act calmly, manage friendships, manage stress and more. Articles to provide to parents/caregivers.

Access to Child Psychologists
Clinical child psychologists with an average 15 years experience on standby to answer an unlimited number of your consultation questions and concerns about the "tricky" kids and families you are working with - answers within 48 hours posted on our Question Centre.
Our video courses are designed to teach children to cope with negative feelings, feel calmer, act confidently with peers and more.
Our online animated videos courses (which can be used in groups, classroom settings, therapy rooms) are designed to help children with “big feelings”. They are designed to teach them how to act confidently, stay calm, learn social skills and act co-operatively. Each video also comes with an activity, poster, discussion guide and at home practice sheet to ensure children really understand the key points in each video lesson.

Our parent/caregiver videos teach parents and carers to feel more confident and effectively support kids with big feelings.
Video courses and articles to help parents know what to say to their child when they are distressed, what to do to help them calm down and how to help them act in more co-operative ways. You can use these with parents in therapy rooms/seminars and groups.

Question Centre staffed by Child Psychologists
Calm Kid Central (the parent/caregiver version) has a Question Centre for parents/caregivers to ask questions of our child psychologist panel (answered within 24-48 hours). You can access this yourself as a professional to assist you to provide ideas for how you might answer similar questions. In our “Professionals Only” question centre in Calm Kid Pro, you can also ask a question about a resource, idea or reference. Our panel of experienced child psychologists will answer within 48 hours. Save time “googling” resources which you can never quite find – ask us instead!


Information about Professionals using Calm Kid Pro
Over 700 professionals (usually in the health and education fields - ie child psychologists, well-being co-ordinators, teachers, mental health nurses and counsellors) have joined Calm Kid Pro in the last 4 years.
Analysis of the data collected prior to and after 4 months of having access to Calm Kid Pro showed that professionals (N=52_ reported a statistically significant increase in their confidence in explaining psychological concepts to children (p<.001), in their confidence providing strategies to cope with emotional health and life challenges (p<.001) as well as in their satisfaction with the resources they had availabe to them in working with these children (p<0.001).
Calm Kid Pro of course is not appropriate for/will not be helpful for every professional who works with children - feel free to contact us if you have any questions about whether it might be helpful for you.
For your interest, we also collect data from parents who join the parent version of this program (Calm Kid Central). Over 3000 Australian families use Calm Kid Central. Using a measure called the Paediatric Symptom Checklist, 94% of parents (N=300) report that their children experienced a significant reduction in a) anxiety, worry and stress symptoms, b) difficulties managing frustration, following instructions and co-operation behaviours and c) attention and concentration problems after 4 months of being part of the program.
In addition, on average, parents reported a statistically significant increase in parental adjustment and well-being (using a measured called the Parent and Family Adjustment Scale).
97% of parents said they believed Calm Kid Central had been either "quite", "very" or "extremely helpful" for their family.
Of course Calm Kid Central is also not suitable or appropriate for every family and we encourage families to contact us before they join the program if they have any questions about suitability.
Who are we?
Our clinical child psychologists all have Masters degrees in psychology, and have worked with children and families for between 8 and 22 years. We still work every day with children with diagnoses such as ASD, ADHD, learning disorders, sensory processing disorders and trauma - as well as with children who just need some extra support in managing tough life situations or their strong emotions.
Is a family ready for Calm Kid Central?
Family life is busy! But in order to benefit from the program, it is essential that parents/caregivers are able to commit to 15-20 minutes at least once a week to watch the video lessons with their children, help them complete the activities and games and to watch and read the parent/caregiver lessons.
Learning more about a child and tracking their progress
Parents/caregivers - we will ask you to fill in questionnaires about your child at the beginning and 4 months into the program - you will get an email with your child's results and can track your own progress.
