Relax Kids with Sinead has been a key part of Cappagh N.S initiative to promote wellbeing among students in our school. I found the sessions to be very informative and engaging. Students were given a safe space to nurture and grow and Sinead went out of her way to provide professional and fun activities for all classes. Sinead has a wonderful interaction with students, but more specifically in discussing key aspects of maintaining a healthy mind. Sinead had a rapport that related to all students and their unique individuality. I would highly recommend Relax Kids with Sinead to anyone seeking a high level of professionalism and delivery

Sinead delivered her anxiety workshop to four class groups and then a parent group that evening in our school. Children, parents, and staff all benefited greatly. Sinead has the ability to present information in a way that it can be understood, accepted, and applied to everyday activities in a way that is easy to achieve. She is both professional and friendly. I would highly recommend her workshop on anxiety.
