Zingpinme - Psychology for kids

14/05/2025

15 years ago today I left the world of working for the government and started my own private practice. I've never looked back, why? Because every day is different, I have the best human, dog and fish colleagues. Each day is often so joyful (but of course there are always hard days). I get to do art, craft, play dinosaurs, make a difference, and be 'strong supporting hands' for many families and individuals.

It has been such a joy to have my two fur babies, school community and singing community play such a big part of my work.

I love what I do and am so grateful for all the incredible humans along the way who have played a part in the successes I have had. xx

🌸 Spring is here, and so is a season full of growth, sunshine, and new beginnings! 🌞
Dilly is feeling the joy of spring, and we want to share that positive energy with all of you! 🥰

Spring is the perfect time to teach kids about the beauty of nature, the importance of nurturing ourselves, and how to appreciate the small things that bring us happiness. 🌱 Whether it’s watching a plant grow, enjoying the sunshine, or just taking a moment to breathe and smile—these little things can make a big difference in our emotional well-being.

At ZingPinMe, we’re all about helping kids develop their social and emotional skills in a fun and engaging way. Let’s take this spring as an opportunity to grow together, just like the plants and flowers around us! 🌷

How are you celebrating the arrival of spring? Share with us in the comments below! 👇

🎨✨ Painting with watercolors isn't just a fun activity—it's also a mindful practice! 🌈 By focusing on the flow of colors and the gentle brushstrokes, kids can develop emotional awareness and reduce stress. It's a creative way to stay present and calm, while also boosting their confidence and self-expression. Let's nurture their minds through art! 🖌️🌟

I love sharing this story... My beautiful and incredibly inspiring little cousin - Alex Noble released his first book today.

Alex was at football training when he was 16 years old and endured an injury that would see him with a C4 spinal injury. Alex has drawn strength from his family, friends, and community and is one of the most inspiring young men this country has ever seen. His book I Fight, You Fight - "Life isn't about the hand you're dealt, but how you choose to play it"... is about how he chooses to get up every day and live his life to the fullest.

Congratulations Alex. I show people your story every day and you help so many people by being you.

"🐛🦋 ZingPinMe believe in the power of self-soothing and managing emotions? Our social emotional learning program introduces the concept of 'being like a bug' and doing a butterfly hug. Just like a bug goes into its cocoon to transform into a beautiful butterfly, children can use this technique to calm themselves and emerge stronger.

Our song helps kids to practice being like a bug and doing a butterfly hug.... HUGS ARE THE BEST :) even ones we give ourselves.

You can listen to our song on spotify or youtube "Butterfly Hugs"

The transformative power of connection is undeniable. It is essential for children to feel seen, heard, and valued for who they are. When kids feel that they matter, their self-esteem grows, and their emotional well-being flourishes.

We can make a conscious effort to build strong connections with our little ones. Take the time to engage with them, listen attentively, and validate their feelings. Let's create a safe space where our children feel supported and loved unconditionally.

Together, we can nurture their social emotional development and empower them to thrive in a positive and caring environment. 💖
