Multi award winning business ‘Little Sunshine Mindfulness Training’ was founded by primary and high school teacher Katie Scott, when she began practicing yoga and mindfulness, many years ago, understanding the impact that this had on her well-being.
With over 30 years experience working with children and young people, Katie could see the increase in mental health issues in young people, & wanted to make a difference for our future generation.
She began ‘Little Sunshine’ in 2017 delivering yoga & mindfulness in schools. She then began to create more resources delivering mindfulness/self esteem programmes, and publishing two books ‘Taking worry out of the classroom’, volume one & two.
Since then, she has developed high quality, professional, CPD accredited holistic, creative, emotional well-being training, with outstanding results.
To ensure more people can access her resources, she has created a resource shop for teachers and educators. This helps reduce planning time and allows more time for teachers to focus on the children and their learning.
Katie has a passion for celebrating individuality, connecting the link between neurodiversity, empathy & creativity. She believes that all children have a unique quality which should be encouraged & supported to help them reach their full potential. As a dyslexic and creative thinker, Katie is passionate about inclusion, creativity and emotional well-being in the classroom.
